Colonels_Wear_Blue 9,779 Posted January 9 Newport Central Catholic and Kentucky High School sports have lost one of the all-time greats. 44 years...I can't even imagine how many lives the man helped mold in that time. Rest in peace, Coach Schneider. 1 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jason Bucklen 86 Posted January 9 RIP Coach! One of the greatest coaches of all time. My Beechwood teams had some battles with his New Cath teams in the early 90’s. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

InsideSlant 183 Posted January 9 Before Coach Schneider took over at Newport Central Catholic, seven coaches combined for 64 wins in 23 seasons. At the time of his retirement he was the winningest coach in the state of KY. Talk about setting a standard for a program and leaving a legacy.

Had the pleasure of officiating many of those. Last game of year. Just great HS football between great teams. Pre-game conferences were classic. All time favorite was the game with the mis-timing clock. Bob out smarted Mike in that one....and Mike laughed and admitted so afterwards. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

During pregame noticed it took clock about 12 minutes to run 10 minutes in time. We told coaches we'd keep time on field, but Mike wanted to just use clock. Bob agreed....and wore them out in fourth...which was more like fifth quarter. Either late 90s early 2000s. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ChiefSmoke 1,620 Posted January 9 Our Paris teams played Coach Schneider's teams in November of 1992 & 1994. Very good football teams.... especially 92. Good grief. We were fortunate to get them in 94. After the game, Coach Schneider told me that we had screwed up his gameplan by taking out a defender they had found on video, they thought they could attack. I told him... ."Coach, we knew you would go after him and had to make a change." Lol. NewCath was a different animal. Everyone else we played, we were fine. NewCath & Bob Schneider... no way. Thankful our paths crossed. It was an honor & challenge to face his NewCath teams. Great memories. Wonderful man and tremendous football coach. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
