Just my opinionI also do not consider Russell to be the mountains)
1. Phillip Haywood, Belfry- Two State Titles, 3 Runner-Ups, Successful at 3A and 2A, Program seems to only be getting better and stronger, helped bring unbelievable facilities to a small school. Top 5 winningest coach of all time.
2. Mike Holcomb, Breathitt- 3 State Titles, turned small Breathitt into a state power
3. Hilliard Howard, LCC- More so on his past laurels at Pikeville where at the time of his retirement he was the ELITE coach in the mountains. Has LCC on the right track. Legend.
4. Dudley Hilton, Bell Co.- Won state title at Bell, maintained Bell as the top 3A program in mountains for years. Top 5 winningest coach of all time. In short stint at Knox Central, he revitalized a dying program.
5. Kenny Roark, Middlesboro- State title, has maintained Middlesboro as a power at both 1A and 2A.
6. Jim Matney, Johnson Central- The best of coaches with no titles. Took hapless Sheldon Clark and completely built them from bottom, has immediately established Johnson Central as a pwoerhouse. No title... YET... once he gets one I would easily list him ahead of Hilton.
7. Tom Larkey, Rockcastle- No State Titles, but has led the Rockets to the Title Game. Defensize guru!
8. Shawn Hager, Sheldon Clark- Best young coach in the mountains, huge future ahead of him and truly cares for his players.
9. John Derrossett, Pburg- Has taken the Blackcats to the promised land, no state titles. Gets the most out of his team, but has had history of having REALLY down years and controversy.
10. Chris McNamee, Pike Central- Excellent coach, just not alot of administrative help at Pike Central. Built Hawks to formidable standards before going to Pikeville..now must rebuild again. Great mind, needs help.
