He appears to be the first. Mac Harrison ought to be nominated immediately for his 1000+ wins and 4 titles. Coach Krumpelbeck at Cov Cath and Don Richardson from Madison Central are certainly worthy with 900+ wins and each winning a state title.

 

4 football coaches have been inducted (Bob Schneider -- 1 title and 4 runners-up at New Cath; Paulie Miller -- 4 titles at Flaget; Johnny Miehaus -- 3 titles at St. Xavier; and Garnis Martin -- 3 titles at Bardstown)

And Stan Hardin (Fairdale basketball, 2 titles) was just inducted, giving basketball coaches 6 spots in the HOF. Billy Hicks and Dale Mabrey will be automatic inductees in the not-to-distant-future.

Congrats to Coach Miller. Not to get to far off subject, but was his name cleared in that scandal involving the principal and his mid-south baseball company?
