    One coach

    Keith and I had a great understanding, A team can only have one Head coach and that was him. I was just fortunate to be able to go along for the ride with him and share the experience like many others.

    Keith

    Keith will be missed by everyone who knew him. He was a positive coach and genuine nice guy. Harvey very nice post. Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family and his second family The Rebels.

    It has truely been an honor

    Keith,
    I never really had the pleasure of sitting down and talking to you about your ideas for the team, or to get to know you as a person. But what I do know is that only a great man could have left such an impact, not only on his own family, but the lives of so many young ladies. Only a person who was totally dedicated to them and their needs and sensitive to their feelings could have gained their love, devotion and respect. You have produced the most amazing group of young ladies, with a profound respect for the TEAM concept. In all my years of coaching, I've never happened upon a group that sincerely love being around each other both on the field and off. The respect that you commanded from them, as well as their parents, is something that all coaches wish they could have. I will wear the title of "interim coach" proudly for as long as the Carolina Rebels exist; for my job is not to replace, (something I could never do or would even try), but to continue to teach and guide the young ladies that pass through the organization, not only on the field but in the game of life.
    The most valuable thing that can be bestowed upon any adult, especially a coach, is the love and respect of the young individuals that we have the opportunity to come in contact with. I gladly stand in your shadow with the hope that one day you and I can coach together in the greatest venue of all.

    Thank you so much for allowing my daughter and I to be a part of such a great organization. YOU WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN!

    Randy
