Colonels_Wear_Blue 9,479 Posted December 3, 2020 Coach Nathan Smith stepped down on Monday, three days after the Wildcats' 2nd round playoff exit following a 34-27 loss to Metcalfe County, whom they had beaten 23-21 during the regular season. Smith is a 2008 graduate of Edmonson County, and became an assistant coach immediately after graduating. He spent 5 years as head coach of the Wildcats after 8 years on the assistant coaching staff.Nathan Smith Steps Down As ECHS Head Football Coach Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Purple88 1,701 Posted December 3, 2020 I think this is a bad deal for Edmonson County. Losing a guy who played there, assisted there and became the head man there. That's roughly 17-18 years of consistent stability Coach Smith provided for Edmonson! He will be tough to follow IMO. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DevilMayCare 2,725 Posted Wednesday at 08:41 PM Former Grayson County coach Ed Smart has been hired to fill this position. He's Grayson's winningest coach after spending sixteen years there from 2004-2019. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
