I'm not talking about anybody on the all time wins list; there are plenty of guys out there coaching at places that have a chance to win it all that aren't at or even near the all times wins list.

Personally, I think they hire inside. Takes Creek has hired inside or at least inside Fayette County with every hire except for their first HC who was a guy named Straub (played at Highlands and later QB at WKU in the late 50's/early 60's & had been the Head Assistant at then My Old Kentucky Home when the GREAT Herbie Phelps was playing). Coach Roy Walton was hired after him and he wrote his own legacy, but he had been an assistant within Fayette County (and a former HC before that).

Joe Ruddell took over for him and he was on Coach Walton's staff.

Willoughby took over for Ruddell and was on Ruddell's staff at TC.

Mike Harmon took over for Willoughby and Harmon had been the HC at Lafayette for a few years before going over to Tates Creek. Guess what else though? He was on Ruddell's staff at Tates Creek before taking the Lafayette job.

Sims was Tates Creek Middle Schools staff head coach.

They will go within their staff and/or Fayette County. The only reason they don't? Is if for some reason any of those guys turn it down, but I don't see as to why they would.

That makes sense. possibly a head coach from another nearby school ?
