Slow Motion Replay, Series Article No. 50: The near misses, the guys who would likely have been HOFers if they hadn’t moved on to something else @khsaafootball, @KyHighFootball, @minguabeefjerky, @bigassfans, @LCAEAGLESFB, @mercer_football, @CentreFootball, @HighlandsFB

We all know Phillip Haywood and Dudley Hilton are the two winningest football coaches in the KHSAA history. Haywood at 491 will be tough to catch but Hilton is 30 or so behind him and he’s still going strong. What about the guys who shone like bright, shining stars then moved on to “greener pastures.” Could some of those guys have been “the best?” Perhaps. If there is a short-timer who could be considered, we believe he may be in this particular grouping of three. Enjoy this feature.

He was lovingly referred to, throughout Kentucky, as “Poppa Joe.” He was also called the “Bear Bryant” of Kentucky High School football. Joe Jaggers, the patiarch of the first family of Kentucky High School football, died at the age of 81 in 2022. Jaggers was a 1958 graduate of Caldwell County High and a 1963 graduate of WKU where he played both football and golf. Jaggers was inducted into the Dawahare, KHSAA Hall of Fame in 1993.

LaRue County has one fine QB who has reclassified as a ’25 prospect and is framed out exactly like one wants to see a pro-style QB. Cutter Boley has a couple Power 5 offers know with several others circling. One has to figure he will pledge himself to UK when the ‘Cats offer. Enjoy the feature. HB.
