| Coach Cotton Adams is well known throughout the state of Kentucky as an accomplished and dedicated football coach and educator. Larry Adams is a Corbin KY native who played and coached at Corbin High School for a combined 31 years. As a player he participated on Corbin's last undefeated team in 1960 and also on the 1962 state runner-up squad. His coaching career began at Corbin under Archie Powers where he served for 13 years as an assistant. Corbin won state championship titles in both 1976 and 1980 while Adams was in that role. Coach Adams was named head coach at Corbin in 1981 and guided the Redhounds to a state championship in 1982 and a state runner-up finish in 1990. His overall head coaching record at Corbin was 114-46. Adams was a player or coach on 3 state championship teams and 3 runners-up during his years at Corbin. Success followed Larry Adams throughout his career and he is truly an integral part of the rich football tradition in Corbin Kentucky. Larry Adams was much more than just a football coach. Like many great coaches throughout the state of Kentucky Coach Adams was a mentor surrogate parent and counselor to the student/athletes he was involved with. Former Redhound players and students (who didn't necessarily play football) will tell you that Cotton impacted them well beyond the football field. He had an uncanny ability to make all students feel wanted and respected as he went about his duties as a Business and Typing teacher at Corbin High School. He is known as a no-nonsense guy with a tremendous affinity for hard work and fairness. HIs personal story reflects that. He left Corbin High School upon graduation and travelled to Dakota Wesleyan College in MItchell South Dakota. Adams travelled 58 hours on a Trailways bus on a promise of a scholarship from then University President Jack J. Early (who was also a Corbin native). He started for four years at linebacker and graduated before coming back to coach at Corbin. | ||||||

He also played baseball in the summer. For eight years, he had no break between seasons. Greg ran the 440 in :50:03 seconds and his 42’ 8 ½†triple jump earned him a state championship. Although baseball was his best sport, basketball was his first love, because it was something an introvert could do by himself. His senior year, he earned 3rd team honors. Greg was Lafayette’s football quarterback and was named 1st team AP during his senior year. Documentary through the Louis B.

| Perky Bryant's high school career was stellar. As a 175-pound halfback, he led one of the greatest football teams in Evarts history to an 11-1 record during his season. Finishing second in the Cumberland Valley Conference, EHS's only loss of the season was to the eventual Class A state championship team. Bryant scored 202 points his senior season, earned 13 varsity letters in four sports at EHS, and powered his way to the end zone with huge contributions for team wins during numerous games (39 points out of 48/ 33 out of 40). His biggest accomplishment was being recognized by the Louisville Courier-Journal as the 15th Best High School Football Player in the state of Kentucky for the 1950's decade. The honor was overwhelming for Bryant considering the number of players, for a 10-year period, that was considered for the award. Perky Bryant was a standout multi-sport athlete at Evarts High School in Harlan County; however, football was his greatest love. His father was a coal miner and his mother a homemaker. He grew up in a coal camp known as Number 2 Camp in Kenvir and worked at a grocery store all day on Saturdays and then would play hard-nosed football at night. Despite living in a small town, Bryant's athletic prowess gained him statewide attention and he continued playing the game of football at the University of Kentucky after graduating Evarts High School in 1960. His grit and drive were evidenced as he had great success at UK as a member of the fabled "Thin Thirty" Wildcats. In 1962, Charlie Bradshaw became coach and Bradshaw's first win came in Detroit, Michigan over Detroit by a score of 27-8. Junior Perky Bryant scored three touchdowns against the Titans. He was a three-year letterman on the UK Varsity Team in 1961-1963. In 1962, he was the leading scorer for UK. | ||||||

| As a freshman, we started Jim at shortstop on our varsity team. Quickly, we all saw how valuable of a teammate he was. He contributed to the success of our team just in his first year. As a sophomore, Jim developed into one of our most talented players and worked his way to the top of the batting order. Jim was recruited by multiple regional summer league teams, where he played with talented college and professional recruits, who were two-three years older than him. As a junior, Jim was named captain of the team and played every position we needed him to fill. Jim’s batting average that year was 598. Jim was named to the All-Region Team (1977). As a senior (1978), Jim was recognized as one of the top players in the Cincinnati area and maintained a batting average of 693. Jim was drafted by the Montreal Expos straight out of high school. Jim had multiple offers from Division 1 colleges but chose to go to Northern Kentucky University on a baseball scholarship to stay close to his elderly mother. In my opinion, Jim is the best baseball player that has ever represented Newport High School. Any coach or official in that era would agree that Jim made his mark playing baseball in the Greater Cincinnati area. It was an honor to be his coach for four years. I followed his career through college and was proud of how he represented our school and baseball program. Jim has sponsored and coached many youth athletic teams over the last 20 years to give back to give back to the community and share his knowledge. | ||||||

| Gaines was born in Paducah, Kentucky to Lester and Olivia Bolen Gaines. Clarence helped his family by working in a garage while in high school. He attended local Lincoln High School, a member of the Kentucky High School League which was later to merge into the KHSAA. He excelled academically, played basketball, was an All-State football player, and played trumpet in the school band. He graduated as class salutatorian in 1941. Jim Crow Era segregation laws and the suggestions of a family friend led him to attend Morgan State University (then Morgan State College), a historically black college in Baltimore, Maryland. He entered in the fall of 1941 on a football scholarship. At Morgan State, Gaines was given his nickname of "Big House": a fellow student saw the 6 ft. 3in., 265 lb Gaines and declared: "You're as big as a house." Gaines played as a lineman for the Bears football team, was a member of the basketball team, and participated in track. Gaines was an All-CIAA selection as a lineman in football all four seasons and twice elected an All-American. When it came to basketball, he said he was "a very average basketball player." In 2004, he explained, "I was an All-America in football, but I was just on the basketball team to have something to do." Gaines graduated from Morgan State in 1945 with a Bachelor's of Science in Chemistry. He intended to go on into dental school, however his college football coach, Edward P. Hurt, suggested that he temporarily go to what was then known as Winston-Salem Teachers College. At the time, the small southern college had one coach for all sports, Brutus Wilson, who was also a Morgan State graduate; Hurt suggested that Gaines would make a good assistant coach. Gaines agreed and went to Winston-Salem. Gaines was to become an ambassador for basketball as a long-time coach, coaching basketball at Winston-Salem State University (WSSU) from 1946 to 1993, compiling an 828-447 record. He led the Rams to 18 20-win seasons, eight CIAA titles, and in 1967 led WSSU to a Division II NCAA Championship, making the Rams the first basketball program from a historically black college or university to capture an NCAA national championship. Due to his proficiency as an athletic coach, teacher and humanitarian, Gaines has received numerous awards: CIAA Basketball Tournament Outstanding Coach Award; 1953, 57, 60, 61, 63, 66, 70, 77; CIAA Hall of Fame Inductee, 1975; NAIA Helms Hall of Fame Inductee, 1968; N.C. Sports Hall of Fame, 1978; CIAA Basketball Coach of the Year, 1957, 61, 63, 70, 75, 80; NAIA District 26 Outstanding Coach Award, 1975-78; Paul Robeson Award, 1980; Winston-Salem Urban League Family of the Year Award, 1973; Order of the Long Leaf Pine (N.C.); and the Silver Buffalo Award (Boy Scouts of America) etc. Gaines was named the NCAA Division II (1967) College Coach of the Year.

| Please summarize this person's accomplishments as a coach, player, official or contributor at the high school level in Kentucky. Donnie Gray coached the Clay County Tigerettes/Lady Tigers girls' basketball team for 21 years. During his tenure, he accumulated 505 and 142 losses for a career .780 winning percentage. His teams won eleven 49th District Championships, nine 13th Region Championships, and his team won the 1989 KHSAA Girls' State Basketball Championship. Donnie also had teams that finished runner-up in the state tournament in 1992, semifinalist in 1993, and quarterfinalist in 1988, 1991, and 1994. He has a career state tournament record of 12 wins and 8 losses, and Donnie was named Associated Press Coach of the Year twice during his run as coach. Donnie also was named 13th Region Coach of the Year four times while being at the helm of the Lady Tiger Basketball team. After retirement, Donnie was Athletic Director for over 10 years for Clay County High School and Clay County Public Schools. Please list any other factors about this individual that you would like for the Screening or Selection Committees to consider. Donnie Gray is truly deserving of this honor. Growing up, he never had the opportunity to play basketball due to his family not being able to afford to take him practice or games. As a result, Donnie pursued a career in coaching once he graduated college. Donnie was as dedicated and determined to make our Clay County Tigerettes girls' basketball program in the 1980's as successful as our Clay County Tigers boys' basketball team. He done so by winning a record seven consecutive 13th Region Championships (9 overall), nine consecutive 49th District Championships (11 overall), and the highlight of his run was the 1989 KHSAA Girls' Basketball State Championship. Recently, Donnie was honored by having the court in Bobby Keith Gymnasium named after him, and several years ago the girls' basketball team honored him by starting the Donnie Gray Shootout. Of all these accomplishments, Donnie most proud of his family: he attends all his grandchildren's games when he is healthy to go. Formerly screened in 2019, but not selected | ||||||

Over the course of his long career and despite changes and developments to the game, he was able to stay relevant and at the forefront of coaches in Region and the State and maintained a winning tradition at a small county school that competed with many other powerhouse programs in a strong 5th Region. This ability is most evident in his Regional Championships that bookended his career with his first coming in his 7th season and one coming 6 years before he retired. He also has had a huge influence on the Region and State through his coaching progeny. Many of his former players and assistants have went on to play at higher levels, had significant high school achievements, and have had distinguished coaching careers, including his two sons who both were veteran coaches in the 5th Region with 1200 wins and multiple championships between them.

| In 1950, George broke Kentucky legend Wallace “Wah Wah†Jones national four-year scoring record while playing for the Frances Bulldogs in Crittenden County. George finished his high school career with 2,604 points, and it is believed that he held the record until it was broken by “King†Kelly Coleman, who still holds the state record. At the time of his death in 2001, George ranked 45th on the Kentucky all-time scoring list. George learned a new style of basketball on the city playgrounds in Baltimore during the war years. A feature in The Courier-Journal said, “He flips the ball from every angle imaginable – and some you can’t imagine – and makes ‘em.†This was despite often being double- or triple-teamed, according to his coach. He was also an early adapter of the overhand free throw and was known for his deadliness from the line. He would shoot from the half-court circle to start games, and opponents would often move games to bigger gyms to accommodate the crowds that flocked to see him. George worked wherever he could in the small, fluorspar-mining community to help support his grandmother, with whom he lived after being abandoned by his mother. That included starting the fire at the school in the early mornings before everyone else arrived, catching mice for a local storeowner, and whatever farm work he could find. Often, he would miss morning classes to go hunting or fishing in order to provide food for the table. George was offered numerous scholarships, and went to UK the summer after graduation to scrimmage for Coach Rupp. After two weeks, he decided that he missed home too much and left. He served as a Marine Corps during the Korean War and later retired from US Steel in Gary, Indiana.

| Coach Dean Hobbs is the winningest basketball coach in BCHS history. Assuming a team in 1979 that had never won a regional tournament game, Coach Hobbs led teams to the 3rd Region Tournaments in 15 of his 17 years as coach. Coach Hobbs led his teams to five regional tournament Championship games, winning the Region 3 Tournament in 1995 and advancing Breckinridge County to the Sweet Sixteen for time in 30 years. His 1995 team defeated four higher ranked teams, winning the support of fans around the state with their selfless play, extraordinary execution, set state records for offensive efficiency and field goal percentage, and fundamental approach to the game. Breckinridge County set state tournament attendance records in virtually each session that they competed in. Coach Hobbs\' teams won 20 or more games in 13 of his 17 seasons at the helm while winning thirteen 11th District titles and set a standard of excellence never before achieved and not having been achieved subsequently. Dean Hobbs played and coached baseball at Campbellsville College after graduation from the Breckinridge County High School in 1966. His college education was interrupted when he was drafted into the US Army and served with distinction in Vietnam for sixteen months. Upon his safe return, he resumed his education and began his service as a professional educator. In addition to his distinguished basketball coaching career, Dean Hobbs also assumed the position as Head Football Coach for one year when staffing limitations and a Reduction in Force protocol was enforced that prevented the hiring of a coach. Years later, he also was additionally the Head Baseball Coach when the same protocol was enacted. Dean Hobbs was, and remains, an advocate for sportsmanship and fundamental preparation, an exemplar of moral values, and a servant to his community. | ||||||

| Billy pitched for Ashland High School from 1964-66 compiling a 27-2 record. He allowed nine earned runs in three seasons. His e.r.a. as a junior was 0.41; as a senior in 1966 it was 0.31. He might be the most dominating pitcher in Kentucky High School history. In 1966 he struck out 150 in 66 2/3 innings. In 1965, as a junior, he struck out 97 and allowed three runs in 53 innings. He averaged two strikeouts per inning for his career. In the 1966 state tournament, which Ashland won, Billy pitched a complete game in the quarterfinals and four innings of relief in the semi-finals. In those 11 innings, he allowed one hit, one run and struck out 29. (29Ks of 33 outs in the state tournament.) Billy got the Tomcats to the championships game which his brother pitched with Billy waiting in the bullpen. Billy hit .649 as a junior, but hitting stats are missing for four games. He hit .386 as a senior. He was selected Kentucky High School Baseball Player of the Year by the Associated Press. After he declined the offer of a full scholarship at the University of Kentucky, Cleveland made Billy the 32nd pick of the 1966 MLB draft. After the draft, Syd Thrift of the Pirates called the Lynch family and apologized for the Pirates failure to select Bill earlier in the draft. An arm injury derailed his professional career, but as I understand the guidelines, selection to the Hall is based on an individual's high school performance. His high school career wasn't a fluke. He also pitched Ashland to state championships in Little League, Babe Ruth League and American Legion baseball. He is a man of high morale character. From:Mueller Nomination As a pitcher for Paul Blazer HS, Billy Lynch had a career record of 27-2 including a spotless 11-0 senior season with a 0.31 ERA and 150 K’s as a part of the 25-0 State Championship team in 1966. That year, the Associated Press named him the High School Player of the Year for 1966 and he was drafted with the 32nd overall pick in the 1966 MLB Draft by the Cleveland Indians. | ||||||

He was a man of strong values and led young people through his faithful walk with Christ. Matney was a family man first, cherishing his wife and sons the way a father truly should. He walked the walk -- loved people for who they were, helped people in need, and saved many young people from a life of poor choices and poverty through his leadership and philanthropy. To know Jim was to love him -- he left every program and community better than he found it. You mountain kids have made believers out of a lot of people for a lot of years. Now my question to you guys is what are we going to do this year? Are we going to carry it on? Are we going to carry on what we believe in? We believe in the mountain way of life! We believe in being up these hollas, and being hillbillies, gettin in these trucks, going huntin' and fishin'. This is who we are and the rest of the nation makes fun of us. But it's a funny thing to me that anytime anybody retires in the city, you know where they want to come live? They want to come live in the country, get them a house up a holla somewhere, and live our life. And I'm glad to have them. We are who we are. We are the boys from the mountains, from the hollas, from the small towns. Don't let anybody come in here- especially from a big city- ever walk out of here thinking they are better people than you. | ||||||

| In 1985 Harold Mullins would help pave the way for live video broadcast of High School Sports in Eastern Ky. Specifically the 14th Region. He was a Pioneer for Eastern Kentucky Video Media He Broadcast KHSAA Sports for 38 years. On Television and Radio. Harold Was also a referee for 17 years. He coached several grade school and high school level sports. From 1966 to 2023 Harold only missed 4 years of the KHSAA Sweet Sixteen basketball tournament. He attended as a spectator as well as a broadcaster. Those 4 years missed was while he served in the Air Force. He also played 4 years of high school basketball at the Carr Creek High School. Harold Mullins received the Buckhorn Excellence in Media award for helping bring live media coverage to the community of Buckhorn. Harold lived and breathed KHSAA Sports. It was in his blood, and I'm positive most of you know this. I'm sure many of you have shared conversations with Harold, and had a laugh with him. He was a big supporter of the KHSAA and the people involved with it. When Covid came around and numbers were being limited in the gyms. Harold along with Hometown24 would once again be innovative. We would still bring coverage and exposure to the athletes of the 14th Region, but we would do it differently. We would send one employee to the gym with the camera and shoot the video back to the station, as Harold would call the game remotely. It was torture for Harold to not be there in person, but he understood the safety of the kids came first. | ||||||

His roles as a leader, educator, mentor, and sport innovator contributed far more than his impressive career accomplishments of 3 State Championships (Ludlow - '75, Paris - '81/'82 & Runner Up - '84). As the 1975 Coach of the Year, Coach Reese was the epitome of what the coaching profession should embody early in his career. Aside from his State Titles and 20 + District Championships, he advanced the quality and standard of the game by bringing college-level innovation to the high school level as he often visited major college programs to learn. He was likely one of the first high school coaches in the state to utilize statistical analytics for game preparation, which is now a common practice around the state. Though he is now retired, his thumbprint on the game still exists either from former players that are now coaching or current coaches that continue to seek his advice in their own careers. | ||||||

| Justin was a 5-year starter for the Yellowjackets. His statistics are 1950 points, 1680 rebounds, and 772 assists. His first year, the eighth grade, was the year that Coach Bob Fox (KHSAA Hall of Fame 2001) came to Earlington High School (EHS) as principal and basketball coach. Coach Fox ran a 1-2-1-1 full-court press the entire game. Adolph Rupp and Male Coach Rendek said it was the best high school press they had ever seen. Justin was one of two forwards stationed at mid-court. That style of play was very demanding on the players but also very challenging on opponents. The average margin of victory for the 1966-67 season was 25.6 points. Justin was taken out early in many games. Otherwise, his statistics would have been much higher. He was a "team first" player and did not regret his early departure. He saw the benefit of giving the substitutes a lot of playing time during the season, so they were able to contribute valuable minutes in the Sweet Sixteen Tournament. Justin was a team leader. In his junior year, he was the only returning starter. EHS and Earlington Million had integrated the previous year. All other starters came from the JV team. Those players had only played together for one year. Even with that lack of experience, Justin led the team to a 29-7 record and to the 1966 Sweet Sixteen. Next year, he led the team to a 38-1 record with the only loss to Louisville Male by 4 points at the LIT. Justin was a "coach-on-the-floor". In the 1967 Championship game against Covington Catholic, with 46 seconds remaining, an EHS guard caused an "over-and-back" violation. As shown in the submitted video, the guard dropped his head, feeling he lost the game. Justin immediately ran to him and coached him to keep his head in the game. On the next EHS play, the guard got an assist on a Sharp basket. EHS won the game on a last-second shot. However, had Justin not intervened after the violation, the result could very likely have been different. Video URL: https://youtu.be/vvGW2GYcidE | ||||||

| Dangerous Dan Swartz – Owingsville Bobcats Center from 1948 – 1951. Dan led Owingsville to state rankings as high as 6th his Junior year and 3rd his Senior year. Dan suffered a knee injury that limited him to 10 games his senior season. He finished his high school career with 2,450 points, only a few hundred points shy of the National Record at the time – a record that was surely to be broken if he had played a full Senior HS season. He was named 1st Team All-State in both his Junior and Senior years and 2nd Team All-State in his Sophomore Year. He was named to the All 16th Regional Team in 1949, 1950, and 1951. He was also a standout baseball player for the Owingsville Bobcats during his HS playing days. KHSAA Hall of Fame Inductee Ellis Johnson called Dan “one of the top-5 HS players ever to come out of the state†during this era along with other KHSAA Hall of Fame Inductees, Cliff Hagen, Wah-Wah Jones, Ralph Beard and John “Sonny†Allen. See the article attached. Dan Swartz’s basketball accomplishments did not end when his HS career ended. He signed with the University of Kentucky and was one of the first players in UK history to play as a Freshman in 1952. He transferred near the end of his Freshman year from UK to Morehead where he was All-Ohio Valley Conference for 3 years, Honorable-Mention All-American in 1954, 2-time All-American in 1955 and 1956 and led Morehead to their first NCAA tournament and first NCAA tournament win in 1956. He finished both his junior and senior years at Morehead in the nation’s top 3 scorers each year. Dan finished his 3-yr career at Morehead holding 10 offensive records, including a total of 1,925 points (28.8 pts/gm average) which still ranks 4th on Morehead’s All-Time scoring lists. Dan went on to have a standout professional career, playing in the NIBL, the ABL, and the NBA, where he won a world championship in 1963 with the Boston Celtics. | ||||||

Many who were alive to see them both play say that Jerry was the "man" on both his high school and college teams. A quick Google search can reveal many accolades. The legendary college coach Abe Lemon said "Jerry was an all-American if there ever was one." Mr. Wells mentored many young athletes growing up in Glasgow and Bowling Green over the years. Wells led Oklahoma City in scoring in his junior and senior seasons. He produced 27.1 points and 7.8 rebounds a game as a senior and 20.0 points and 6.8 rebounds a game as a junior. Wells' career averages were 18.9 points and 5.6 rebounds per contest. He made the All-College Tournament all-tournament team twice. From 1963-66, Wells led the Chiefs to three NCAA Tournament appearances, the 1965 All-College Tournament championship, two All-College Tournament runner-up finishes and a 60-26 record. Wells formed OCU's Big Three alongside Hunter and James Ware. Abe Lemons guided the Chiefs to a 24-5 record in 1965-66. Oklahoma City's 1965-66 team ended its season in the NCAA Tournament, falling to the eventual national champion Texas Western 89-74 in the first round. Texas Western, now known as Texas-El Paso, featured an all-black starting lineup and became the subject of the movie "Glory Road." Lemons said of the 6-foot-1 Wells that he was a complete player "with a fine sense of balance". | ||||||

| There are few in the business of education, who take on the role of mentor, teacher and coach and perform at such a high level through literally five decades; from 1965 through 2009. Working with Coach White for over 20 years, he was a guiding force in the lives of student-athletes, parents and staff. He had an incredible work ethic, demanded excellence and hard work from those around him; where loyalty was always at the forefront. Bill was fiercely competitive and loved to win, but when you lost, there was always a purpose; a message. He taught all of us how to win but how to handle defeat as well. Coach White was not one to blame others, but had developed this posture that the first thing one must do is to reflect in the \\\"mirror\\\" so to speak. \\\"Bill\\\" loved athletics and kids; he loved coaching and over five decades those who were fortunate to be in his inner circle had developed a genuine relationship that would last a lifetime. A winner in sports yet a winner for life. | ||||||
