Will he go down as the GOAT?

What do you mean?

How quickly we forget Bob Beatty.

I'd say there are several coaches that have won many more games and state championships. He is a fine coach but I would be really reluctant to call him the best ever.

And Noel Rash, Dale Mueller, Phillip Heywood, Mike Glaser and on and on.

Coach Wallace is great coach and one of the best but premature to call him the Goat. Right now I would say Bob Beatty has that distinction. 

Kevin Wallace is a tremendous football coach. So was Homer Rice, Rice Mountjoy, & Blanton Collier. Awful hard to come up with the GOAT because all of the era's are so different. 

 

But, without a doubt, winning state championships at two different schools does separate Kevin from the pack.

I will throw Mike Yeagle in there but exactly. 

I would say Kentucky doesn't have a goat but more like goats.

All do respect to Kevin Wallace, who is a great coach, but he isn’t even on the Mt. Rushmore of KY coaches. 

Winning championships at two different schools allows for him to be in the conversation.

Let's see him go to mediocre school and turn it around, then we will talk about him being the Goat. It's another thing to go from Bowling Green to St X .

What mediocre school in 6A or 5A going to win championship with any coach? Got to have players or any coach isn't going to win.

I'm saying that there are alot of coaches that could win with the talent he has or had. Not saying he isn't a good coach or not but to say he's the best ever????

Look at Beatty at Trinity, could say the same about him but any coach in consideration for Goat will have several championships.
