Ken Coley (Where is he now? -- No Teasers)

Read that as "Holy Zombie, Bartman!" and thought somebody had resurrected Coley's running (and off-season training) buddy, Bart Krout, another good'un from the Birmingham area. Prominent reference to him in this NYT sports flashback

The New York Times: This Day In Sports

I went to HS with Ken Coley for the record, EB Erwin HS. well sort of, he was 2 grades ahead of me.

Speaking of wishbone QBs, Jeff and Gary Rutledge and Richard Todd were not slouches. Steadman Shealey was tough as a hickory nut.

Steady Steadman.... 12-0. Solid.

I agree he was very athletic, but best triple threat Q.B.? I would have to say Terry Davis!!!

TD was definitely the best. However, Ken was a great athlete. I played against him in high school and other than Linnie Patrick he was the best I played against. Also a very good baseball player and played SS for Erwin. Not sure where he is but would like to know.

I remember Ken. Don Jacobs, Alan Gray, and Steadman Shealy were all on the team together at one point I think in 1979. Ken must have come sometime after that.
