According to my calculations (used the KHSAA Coaches List which is current through the 2009-2010 season and looked up the other active coaches wins since), that puts the all time coaches wins (up to today) at;

 

William Kean 856

Billy Hicks 800 *Active

Dale Mabrey 781 *Active

Bobby Keith 767

Ron Bevars 762 *Active

Pearl Combs 761

 

Kean was 856-83....thats impressive!

That's a .911 winning percentage for those of you scoring at home.

Congratulations to Billy!

Central is what the KHSAA Records say, they won two state championships (1969, 1974) but both of those are listed under Coach Robert Graves. Anyone know what years Kean coached? That's a pretty lofty record for never winning a state championship or even being in a final game.

Congrats to Coach Hicks. I haven't seen a Scott County game in a few years; often his courtside histrionics are worth the price of admission.
