Coach Bernard Brandt was an assistant at Madisonville-North and became head coach after Coach Sexton departed. Wasn’t he from Danville?

Yes. Duchy Brandt. Legendary Coach in this area.

Danville HS grad, 1957.  Was an assistant for Sexton @ Boyle then followed him to Madisonville. 

He was an assistant at Danville from 1980 thru 1998, an assistant for Coach Duffy and Coach Harp. He was a big part of multiple state titles. 

All these old coaches around here speak highly and fondly of "Duchy"!

This place has been a spot for very good football for a long time.

Indeed it has been "Title Town" for a long time. Thanks Coach!

The First Coaches photo is from the 1976 Season I believe.  Four coaches altogether.  Varsity - JV - Freshmen.  1976 was 10-2 with wins over Harrodsburg and Henry Clay.  The 2 losses were by 1 point to Frankfort on a KO return with about a minute to play and by 7 to Danville when Chris Jones returned a punt inside the red Zone with a couple of minutes to play and the Ads scored to win.  

C.T. Wolfe was my QB.  Same class together.  Started all 3 seasons.  

Great Post. A lot of great information if you are a Rebel fan. So many times this information is pushed aside or lost over the years.

Went to church w/ CT & Russ Wolfe. Also had the Danville QBs, Jim & David McAfee. And, Mike Floro went to Centenary Methodist. 

I was at the bottom of the QB Depth chart at church! ??

Reminds me…. Walked in Sunday School. Boyle County cheerleader looks at me and says, “I don’t know why they put your picture in the paper every week. You’re no good!”

I just smiled big. Lol

Thanks for catching that...must have overlooked it in the copy/paste process, but the omission had my totals thrown off. Got it all corrected in my original post.

Coach Ed Rall joined us today for our last Player Development workout. Really glad my kids got to meet him and then have a meal with him as well. To say it was a great day would be an understatement. 

 

Coach Rall looks good in that Anderson Co. Football hat. I have told him, Morris Allen Stewart, and Larry French... all you guys started with my Dad... you need to go out with me. So far, I am 0 for 3. ?

Rall, Stewart, and French all three I looked up to and where great role models for young kids.
