It didn’t take long for Travis Roland to find himself back in the head coaching fold of Georgia high school football.

According to a social media post shared by Wheeler High School (Ga.) athletics, Roland has been named the next head football coach of the Wildcats. Roland shared a post on social media regarding his appointment as the new lead man for the Wildcats, which finished 3-7 last season.

Roland spent two seasons at the helm of the Camden County Wildcats (Ga.) before they parted ways last month. The state championship head coach finished with a 13-8 record over the course of two seasons leading Camden County.

In three seasons at Mainland (Fla.), Roland compiled an overall record of 30-10, leading the Buccaneers to Florida’s Class 3S state championship over St. Augustine in 2023. 

Now Roland will be tasked in taking over a Wheeler squad that’s only won five games over the last two seasons. The last time Wheeler finished above the .500 mark was in 2023 when the team owned a 7-4 record.

Wheeler ended the 2025 season as the state’s No. 114th ranked team, according to the final Georgia 2025 High School Football Massey Rankings.
