Theodore Ginn Sr. (born November 10, 1955) is the coach of the Glenville High School Tarblooders football and track teams in Cleveland, Ohio. He is the father of wide receiver Ted Ginn Jr.[1][2] In addition, he has two other children, Tiffany Ginn and Jason Lucas from Akron, Ohio. In 2001, Ginn, who started out working in the Cleveland Public School District as security guard at Glenville High, coached the U.S. Army All-American Bowl and in 2006 when he was the head coach. He also started the Ted Ginn Sr. Foundation Annual Combat Bus Tour, where he takes inner city high school football players around the country to all major college combines. In 2007, he helped establish Ginn Academy, an all-boys high school for at-risk Cleveland students.[3][4][5][6][7][8]

As track and field coach, Ginn has led Glenville to six state championships, and in November 2006, a portion of Gray Avenue on the east side of Cleveland was renamed "Ted Ginn Sr. Avenue" in Ginn's honor.[9]

In 2022 Ginn led Glenville to the OHSAA Division IV State Football Championship, marking not only Glenville's first football title, but also the first for a school from the Cleveland Metropolitan School District.[10] Ginn led Glenville to a second title in 2023.
