E's Army Wrote:Vaughn Hatcher at Williamsburg. Should be Herron's heir apparent.
Why is that name so familiar? Was his father a coach or referee?

I think you have to put Eli Florer at Bracken County on that list of young up and comers. He started helping Coach Sizemore right when they were starting to win and he has been an integral part of Coach Brausch’s staff over the last couple of seasons that has continued Bracken’s success. I’ve heard he has accepted a teaching job at another district in NKY, it would be bad to let this guy slip away as he coaches multiple sports and does a great job!

Eddie Creech head coach at Harlan county. He already has a region title and 2 district championships and he is still young.

Districts should do all they can to keep those types of guys.

I pray to Jarvis Parsley this is untrue! Eli was a 3 sport star, and a sure lock for our beautiful new HOF. And then he coached under Mike Sizemore, Dave Brausch ANd Scooter Charles. The experience he has is unmatched for a kid his age. I sure hope heâs sticking in Polar Bear Country, i donât understand why anyone would leave!!?

If Eli Florer isn't in the next Hall of Fame class than they shouldn't even have a Hall of Fame.

Hard to argue him not being in there sooner rather than later! There probably is not a better true multi sport athlete to come through here. From Football to Basketball to Baseball there is none better and he is going to make somebody an excellent coach. If thereâs not a plan in place for him to be the next football coach we are missing the boat big time and I am not sure if our program will recover. Weâve been lucky to have a couple good coaches come through but they were all looking to build and move on, I think Coach Florer could be the long time hire if we get a plan together.

Without a doubt the best multi sport athlete to ever come through that place.

Interesting nobody mentioned mike salmons at Raceland , I seen someone say Scott Grizzle and I think mike has 2 years of head coaching experience on Scott , Raceland has dominated that series , Scott has never beat Raceland . Raceland is back to back region champions with one state runner ups in the last couple of years . Iâm not saying mike should be on the list Iâm just curious that nobody considers him a good young coach

Best young talent out there. 2 categories
1. Young assistant that needs to be a DC or OC?
2. Young DC or OC that deserves a shot at HC?
Instead of trashing coaches let’s brag for a while.

Mike Salmons and Scott Grizzle come to mind. They have several common threads. Mike played for and coached under Randy Vanderhoof, as did Scott. Scott also played for and Coached under Mike before taking the HC job at Greenup. When comparing wins and losses, Raceland has dominated the series and Mike really seems to have Scott's number. THAT BEING SAID, Mike inherited a program, that he had been apart of for a good while as a coach and played within that program his entire football life until going on the be a stand out DL at Thomas Moore, that same program was on an upswing, but he continued to build on that momentum, taking them to their first semi final victory and state finals appearance. Grizzle, on the other hand, came in to take over a program that was really struggling, one that had no true identity and was quickly losing interest and had little to no enthusiasm around the program. Top it off it was the county rival. Scott breathed new life into GC football and while they havent managed to take that "next step" they continue to grow. Really love seeing these two succeed. Two different paths, but both very successful with their respected programs.

Grizzle is 29 and in his 3rd year as a HC. Greenup won 12 games in the previous 5 seasons before he came to Lloyd. He didn't exactly walk into a well established program like Salmons did. Greenup has now won 20 games in 3 years with 3 winning seasons while being in a district with Johnson Central and Ashland.
Greenup may have the youngest coaching staff in the state with Daniel Armstrong, Travis Jones, and Zack Parsons all in the 20s but very good coaches that will move up the ranks.
