He also had an amazing hand in help raise grandson Jayzon.When Tyus and Travian became old enough, their Dad became involved with coaching them in Anadarkoâ€™s little league basketball, baseball and football programs. Brian coached several Little league Football teams through the years winning 3 super bowl titles with Tyusâ€™ team and a Superbowl title with Travianâ€™s team. So many youth were under his coaching guidance and he loved that he was doing something positive for the Anadarko community youth. He loved to talk and had the ability to strike up and keep up a conversation with a total stranger. At one OU game he started talking with a fellow OU fan and they had many things in common, including little league football. Intrigued by the information from the fellow fan, Brian would make a way to take his Warrior team to the Dallas Cowboys Stadium for a round robin tournament. He set the stage for future Anadarko Little League teams to participate and experience football at an NFL level. Ladonna always told Brian, he should have been a sports commentator because he knew the answers to every sports trivia question that popped up on the tv.Brian also coached AAU basketball with his team, The War Hoops, which is a nod to friend Matt Foreman for letting Brian keep the tradition of continuing the name, They traveled all over the state and even a tournament in New Mexico. Brian was an avid sports fan of all types.
