Coach Jack Dallas Announced as Talent Scout for 2026 All State Game

Jack Dallas brings a wealth of experience to his new role as a Talent Scout for the ASG Missouri Football. His journey, which began in Los Gatos, California, has seen him wear many hats, from his days as a defensive coordinator at Battle High School to teaching business classes. Since settling in Jefferson City, MO, Dallas has dedicated himself to nurturing young talent, aspiring to one day lead his own team as a head coach.

In this new role, Coach Dallas is set to identify and nurture promising athletes in 6th, 7th, and 8th grades across Missouri. "I coach football to provide opportunity for student athletes. I aim to lead, guide and show kids that anything is possible through hard work, discipline, and commitment," Dallas said. His commitment to creating pathways for young athletes is clear, ensuring that ability, rather than geography or financial background, opens doors. As part of the ASG selection committee, he'll work to ensure that talented kids, especially those from small towns or underfunded programs, get the recognition they deserve.

Dallas and his wife Kendall, proud parents of two adopted children, have embraced Missouri as their home since 2021. His dedication extends beyond the field, as he aims to instill in his players the idea that setbacks are merely stepping stones to growth. This philosophy is sure to resonate well with his responsibilities as a Talent Scout, where he will serve as a gatekeeper for the ASG Missouri Football community, ensuring that only the most deserving athletes make it to the All State Game stage.

The All State Game has been a beacon for young athletic excellence since 2004, and with Coach Dallas on board, its mission to spotlight future stars is in capable hands. His role promises not only to elevate the game but also to forge lasting connections with other top coaches across Missouri, enhancing the football landscape for generations to come.
