They also lost to Mercer.I forgot about Boyle winning 5 out of their last 7 last year.I think the coach at North Oldham has to be in the running because 2 years ago he didn't win a game and now they are undefeated. Talk about turning it around. I bet those fans that are saying great things about him this year were calling for his head 2 years ago.Since noone answered my earlier question about who was the state coach of the year in 2005 I'll tell you that this year at a different school he has only won 1 game this and will probably finish 1-9 this year.It just goes to show you that it's mostly about having the Jimmy's and the Joe's.I saw where 1 year French won 1 game at Meade County and the next year I think he won 8.

 

My freshmen year, '98 was the year he went 1-9 with the only win coming the last game of the year against Fort Campbell. The previous year he was put out by Central Hardin in the Region Championship in overtime. '99 the year after the 1-9 season he went 5-5 and just missed the playoffs.

I think Boyle Co. was 11-13 the last two years. Coach French has done a great jod. He turned attitudes of fans, parents, players, and the rest of the coaching staff around.

Amazing how attitudes change when you win...

He came in and changes the attitudes of coaches and players before the first game:dancingpa So it wasn't THAT, maybe for the fans

Boone County's (6a) Rick Thompson should be considered at this point. Having lost several key players from last years squad and what people thought would be a down year at Boone this year. His team has come together to win the district hands down. Thus far his team is ranked 3 in the State in 6a. We will see how the teams produce in the playoffs? :cool

 

I agree. Having one of the best records in the state after losing players like Farris, Ducet, and Bogle. Very impressive.

In that case I would also like to nominate Conner's head coach Dave Trosper. After having a 1-9 season last year and graduating 9 starting defensive players he has turned the program around. If not for losing close games to Boone and NCC their record would be much better

Rule 13

Any guy that can win 7 at Berea should be considered, Petett @ Monroe Co in 2a, how about Thompson at Wayne Co, he's already the school's all-time wins leader and the program is sharing their first district title in the 40th year of varsity football, Dudley @ Bell Co and Ed Smart at Grayson Co, those are guys that all deserve seriious attention!
