East Ridge has OFFICIALLY hired Brad Allen (again) as the Head Football Coach.

Allen is returning to the Warriors after a stint as an assistant coach at Belfry, where they captured the Class AAA State Championship.

Allen was originally the head coach of East Ridge from 2008 to 2013, and earned a record of 17-24, including two playoff appearances in 2009 and 2010.

Before becoming the head coach of the Warriors, Allen was an assistant at Pikeville College, where he was a critical part of the offensive line that went to the National Playoffs. Allen played his high school ball at Breathitt County under legendary coach Mike Hocolmb.

This is the best hire they could have hoped for! I heard it wasn't looking too good with the other candidates.

Best of luck to the Warriors in 2015.
