MEET THE COACHES

Coach Tim Bowens is in his 3rd year as Head Coach at Brooks High School.

Prior to arriving at BHS, Coach Bowens led the CAU Panthers for 3 seasons. His first season was in 2019 when CAU had the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Conference's leading passer, the conference's second-best passing offense and was in the top five in nine offensive, defensive and special teams categories.  

Before coming to CAU he coached at Georgia State University where he was an assistant coach in charge of running backs. He led the Panthers’ offense to a school-record 2,057 rushing yards and 21 touchdowns on the ground in 2018, as his squad improved their rushing average by nearly 60 yards per game over the previous season.

     Before coming to Georgia State in February 2018, Coach Bowens spent four years as an assistant coach at the University of South Alabama, the last three seasons as running backs coach.  During his time at USA, Coach Bowens coached the two-time All-Sun Belt Conference running back Xavier Johnson who finished as the career rushing leader and was part of a staff that earned the program’s first-ever bowl berth.

     Coach Bowens has also been an assistant coach at Samford, Alabama-Birmingham, and the University of Alabama, as well as head coach at Tanner (Ala.) High School and offensive coordinator at Coffee (Ala.) High School. 

        Bowens was a wide receiver at Alabama from 1996-99 and helped the Crimson Tide to win the Southeastern Conference title, two SEC West Division titles, and three bowl games.  He earned his degree in human environmental sciences from Alabama in 2000. He graduated from Brooks High School in 1996.

In two seasons, under Coach Bowens leadership, the Lions have a overall record of 14-9 and reached the 3rd round of the Playoffs in 2023. 

Coach Bowens and his wife, Kesha, have four sons (Timothy, Taylor, Tanner and Christian), and a daughter (Kallie).
