Best high school football coach in eastern KY
#68
Man are we blessed to have had so many great coaches in the mountains??? I would like to add 2 names that would elude most lists, but if you knew what they accomplished at the small school in the mountains, you would agree. Shorty Jamerson (a grad of UK who score 12 of 13 points in the 1951 Sugar Bowl) and Don Daniels (father of South Floyd coach Donnie Daniels) took their Wheelwright Trojans against some of the best teams in the mountains. No, they never went to state, but they produced some competitive teams beating Pikeville in 1976 14-13 (I think). They did their job without fanfare and without much talent. Just two great men who coached.
