Bowling Green HS

1) The late, great Dan Haley resigns in either December of '95 or January of '96

2) Steve Long then hired about this time of year during the winter of '96 (maybe before)

3) After not getting some wishes he was granted during the interview process, Steve Long resigns at Bowling Green in late June of '96

4) Bowling Green then turns to its 2nd, 3rd and even 4th options from back in Januaray (not sure the order here, but Joey Downs who was at Bardstown, Marty Jaggers of then Lincoln County and Joe Hood of Warren Central-might be off on Hood, but there was another)----none of those guys take the job due to how late in the year it was.

5) Bowling Green hires then assistant on staff & former Warren East HFC, Kevin Wallace....and, 20 years later...a Corvette is transformed into a Bentley.

.....this is only the end of the world if you choose to look at it that way, and aren't 110% supportive.

One obvious difference... people aren't moving into Bell County, Warren County in general has grown 58% since 1990(36% in BG Alone), Bell has dropped -9%. Bowling Green was due to do be a contender whether or not Wallace was there. Can say the same with Scott Co. whose population has doubled in the same time.
