Today, we continue on in our series of Kentucky’s all-time, high school football coaches. We have published nearly 40 of these and we still have many guys left we just can’t omit from the series. Who knows if we can even get this wound up before the season gets here. It will make one heck of a book, though. Today we give you Randy Reese. Old timers will remember this guy as the guy who did things at schools never before done nor done since. That seems an important characteristic among all-timers, the doing of things never before or since done. Enjoy this feature.

Slow Motion Replay: Maybe all I know about Mike Yeagle, in the end, is he was a fine football coach @bigassfans, @minguabeefjerky, @khsaafootball, @KyHighFootball, @BeechwoodFB, @beechwood_tiger, @BeechwoodA

Mike Yeagle was as fine a football coach as the KHSAA has ever known. He coached football for 15-years, winning 183-games and losing a scant 27-times. Yeagle took over a Beechwood team which had one title prior to his being hired (1984) and turned the same Tiger squad into the KHSAA team of the 90s (7-titles in 10-years). At the end of the day, we have no idea how many titles nor games he might have won had he not retired when he did nor passed when he did. Sixty-two years old is mighty young to be passing on to your reward. Still, the Lord takes us when He is ready for us and when He thinks we have our best chance of redemption. In the end, Yeagle is missed and will never be fully replaced. Enjoy this feature.
