Steve Johnson at Pikeville. I believe Steve's been there since McNamee returned to Pikeville around the 2010 season, so he's been a part of 2 state championships (15 and 19) and one runner up (18). You've got to think that he had a lot to do with the maturation of Isaac McNamee last year, and we all know what happened after QB1 figured things out last year (things changed the Belfry game). Pikeville's passing game has been crazy good the last few years with two different QBs playing two totally different styles (Roberts, McNamee). With that type of consistency, you've got to look at the coach, and that's Steve Johnson. Couple him with Brad Allen and Brad's talent with the O-line and running game, and you've got one heck of combination at Pikeville. Excited, and hopeful, to see what those guys do next year.

Pikeville has a solid staff. I'd love to see my team's program get to that level and it is certainly obtainable.
