Coaches with 100 Wins


     Share on Facebook         
      


          Since the inception of AHSFHS.org some seventeen years ago one of our first priorities was to compile a list of the winningest coaches in the history of Alabama high school football. Over time the list has become more refined as the scores for games were found through the diligent research completed by myself and many other interested fans of the website.

          This task began with a list of all coaches with at least 100 wins and has grown from that point. We currently have 438 coaches that have at least 100 verified coaching wins. There are 69 active coaches with at least 100 wins entering the 2024 season. That number is quite surprising and seems to make the 100 win plateau attainable by most coaches with moderate success. Still it is a standard of which coaches are measured.

          As the 2024 football season approaches, there are a number of coaches who are on the verge of being added to our list of winningest coaches. We will follow these and others throughout the season and let you know when and if they reach this milestone.

          Terry Curtis leads all coaches with 355 wins followed closely by Danny Horn and Paul Benefield with 351 victories.

          Mark Hastings has 149 victories and could top the 150 mark early in 2024. Ben Blackmon will join the 150 win club with just four more wins this season while David McKinney is just five short of the 150 win mark.

          Below is the complete list of coaches that could possibly reach 100 wins this season. There may be a few others that could reach 100 wins if their teams do extremely well and win more than twelve games in 2024.



Coaches approaching the 100 win club
  98  -  David Smothers (Addison)  (98-41)
  98  -  Jeremy Perkins (Austin)  (98-60)
  95  -  Ed Rigby (Luverne)  (95-39)
