the name ive heard as the lead candidate is Kevin Garris.... I think he would be a good choice but i'd like to see a person from outside the school who could schedule games with bigger city schools... It always gets the schools name out there better when the team is playing lex/lou teams....

Last year, Pikeville football played Henry Clay and East Jessamine -- 4A and 3A schools from Lex. area. Kevin Garris (along with Ken Trivette) had a lot to do with Henry Clay being an invite to the bowl game.

This coming year, Pikeville (1A school) will play 4A LexCath and 5A Ashland.

By the way, the ADs at most schools allow the head coaches almost 100% say in who they put on their schedule. It's not like it is in college.
