Former Wilson head coach Brian Zavala joins staff at Montebello …

Posted on by

Former Wilson High School football Brian Zavala, who resigned from Wilson this past offseason after two years on the job, has taken a teaching job at Montebello and will become part of head coach Pete Gonzalez’s staff.

Zavala had been coaching at Gladstone this offseason as the defensive coordinator with hopes of landing a teaching job. Although nothing materialized at Gladstone, a job did come free at Montebello and Zavala was able to take it.

Aram’s take: Good to see BZ land on his feet. He should be a huge addition to Coach Gonzalez’s staff. If you listened to Coach Gonzalez on last night’s PrepXtra Live, then you’re aware he’s got the Oilers program on the upswing. Gonzalez said he’s got 95! players out between varsity and JV. Those are excellent numbers in this day and age.

    Do a follow up did his DC leave, that would be a big loss for montebello.

    No, the DC Chou did not leave. And Zavala is not the DC. He will be the assistant DC and coach linebackers. All is fine in Montebello. Coach Gonzalez looks to be putting something special together.

    Aram
    No mention about what Gladstone is going to do? Wasn’t Zavala the DC at Gladstone? Who takes over for him there?

    I believe Coach Sanchez will call the D at Gladstone.

  • Come On

    Aram why would you keep torturing us with news about Zavala. He needs to stay in hiding because he was such a bad Head Coach.

    Come On,

    Be very careful here, Aram and Zavala are good buddies. Don’t mess with Zavala youre going to hurt Aram’s feelings. Don’t matter that Zavala can’t coach his way out of paper bag with holes on both ends. The only reason he landed a job over at Montebello is he was calling Pete at least twice a week begging for a job. I think Pete finally got tired of him calling and finally gave him a job to shut him up.
