I am one of the ones that mentioned "homerun hire". I say that for several reasons 1. He is young and energetic. He will bring "the juice" to the program. 2. He is a defensive guy who coached DC in the college level. 3. He was a strength and conditioning guy at other programs and will instill the weight training program to another level. 4. Have you seen Lex Catholic defense lately in the past few years? They have been close to being awful. Sure they can score in bunches, but they stop can't seem to stop anyone from scoring either. 5A. Compare him the the previous coach, I would say 100% better and 5B. Honest question, who was out there that applied is worthy of hiring?  

All valid points and desirable traits. Will the LexCath faithful give him time to build and implement his system? Or is pressure on from Day 1?

    I see this as a BIG win for Highlands! You just got potentially a successor back in the Bluegrass now getting Head Coach experience. When I say successor I dont mean tomorrow but maybe 6-10 years from

    Bob Sphire was indeed the #1 call. That is a fact. But Highlands was nowhere near what it would take to bring him to Ft Thomas from Southern Ga and discussions quickly stalled. After the James debacle

    Awesome hire by Lex Cath! Super happy for Bert as he is a great coach and even better guy from an awesome family. Really wish he would have been offered the HHS job! Good luck Coach B and the Knights!

That I can't answer Sir. I know they have some nice players back with possible D1 talent. Over a 1,200 yd rusher, O-Linemen that is being touted by UK, a WR that is talented and contributed a lot last season. I mean if we looked at Lex Catholic history, they have done/ faired well but can't seem to get over the hump and get by Boyle Co the past 4-5 years.
