I absolutely hate to see "Big Show" go; as he has been an intregal part of the Pikeville College Football family....both as a player, an assistant coach, and as a true friend. He will be sorely missed in the 2008   Pikeville College Football season.

However, that gives Pikeville College Coach Mac Bryan his third assistant coach to take a head coaching position this summer.  Jessie Peck and Brad Allen,  former assistant coaches, have gone to Phelps and East Ridge. Coach Mac must be teaching these fellows well! They are taking away skills they can use to teach others.

The team at  Charlie Pinson Insurance KY,  wishes Derrick Silas "The Big Show" all the best in his endeavours. He will be missed by all of us; including his smallest fan Jacob Frantom.

Pikeville College Football Grads take Head Coach positions

Kentucky High School Football

Pike County KY

Two Pikeville College Alumni will be making their gridiron debuts as coaches in the upcoming season. Here in Pike County, Jesse Peck will be the new head coach at Phelps High School. I look forward to seeing what the young Mr. Peck can do! Jesse had graduated from Pikeville College, and had been a coaching assistant under Bears Coach Mac Brian.

Another of Mac Brian's proteges, Brad Allen has been named the new head coach at East Ridge High School. Brad had also been a coaching assistant at Pikeville College.

Both Peck and Allen were Pikeville College Bears offensive lineman. Both got the job done. We look forward to see what they make of thier new opportunities.
