Jonathan Webster was named the 22nd head coach of the Warrior football program in November of 2022. 

Webster most recently served as the defensive coordinator at Northeast Mississippi Community College in Booneville where he led the Tiger defense to national prominence as the team ranked top 15-nationally in fumble recoveries, interceptions, and defensive touchdowns all three years at the helm. 

His stint at Northeast was the second of his career as he also coached the Tiger defensive backs in 2012-13 before serving as the defensive backs coach at Northwest Mississippi Community College in Senatobia from 2013-2019.

Webster was a key part of Northwest's success during his tenure. That includes the Rangers' 2015 campaign in which NWCC won both the MACCC conference and NJCAA national championships. 

Northwest qualified for the MACCC playoffs each season that Webster was on its staff, and the Rangers appeared in three bowl games, including the 2015 Mississippi Bowl, the 2016 C.H.A.M.P.S. Heart of Texas Bowl, and the 2017 Graphic Edge Bowl. 

Webster, a Batesville native, began his coaching career at Southwest Mississippi Community College in Summit as a defensive backs coach in 2009.

Along with his experience in the college ranks, Webster has spent numerous months in the professional football world through internships beginning in 2014. These include stops with the San Diego Chargers, Atlanta Falcons, and Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Webster's duties included assisting with game preparation and working with defensive backs, linebackers, and special teams.

The South Panola High School graduate was a standout student-athlete as he played at both Northwest Mississippi Community College and Arkansas Tech University. During his tenure with the Rangers, NWCC went 15-4 and was nationally ranked in the NJCAA both seasons. He earned Northwest's defensive most valuable player honors as a sophomore and helped lead the Rangers to a MACCC North Division championship during his freshman campaign. 

At Arkansas Tech, Webster was named Gulf South Conference Academic Honor Roll and College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA) Academic All-District on two occasions.

Webster has a bachelor of arts in sociology from Arkansas Tech and a master of science in psychology from the University of Southern Mississippi. He and his wife Bridget have three children, Kenadie, Kaleb, and Nori.
