Colonels_Wear_Blue Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 Kal Oakes just posted about newly-retired football coach Paul Rains on social media: This was Paul's EIGHTH head coaching job. "I don't know if I own many state records, but I'm pretty sure I got that one." We all know that there are a lot of coaches and their families that make sacrifices for them to be able to take new jobs elsewhere. I don't envy them for that part of the profession. Which other coaches around the state have made the rounds (for any sports)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colonels_Wear_Blue Posted May 8, 2020 Author Share Posted May 8, 2020 Rains was head football coach at Hazard, Montgomery County, Madison Central, Lexington Christian Academy, Mercer County, Letcher County Central, Paul Laurence Dunbar, and Great Crossing. Johnny Poynter comes to mind...I know he has at least 4. Trimble County, Bourbon County, Bellevue, and Bath County. Anyone else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I was yrying to come up with others, my thought was I doubt if any other football coach has been head coach at more than 4 schools. Perhaps more than 4 schools in other sports, especially basketball, but I doubt more than 4 schools for football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larry French is on #6: Mercer County, Meade County, Lincoln County, Boyle County, Southwestern, and now Middlesboro. Ray Graham is on #5: Rowan County, Harrison County, LexingtonChristian Academy, RowanCounty, Harrison County. Dudley Hilton is on #5: Bell County, Bourbon County, Bell County, Taylor County, Bell County. That's got to be a record...most times being hired as the head coach at the same school.
