Coach Dotson Coached Norton To a state championship? I did knot know that.
The Dogwood District has had a state champ 6 of the last 7 years;
no Dogwood team made the finals in 2006 or 2001.
Dogwood teams are 6-0 in the finals.
Region D is 0-3 with 0 points scored vs. the Dogwood.
Raiders are 1-5 in the finals : only win was Jim Dotson's 1972 squad that beat Madison Co. 26-14

Sure did, the lone title in 1972 was Coach Dotson's. He actually had two stints at Burton

**** he's been around for ever. Didn't he coach at Va High? I was unaware he went that far back with the lpd
GO VOLS
I think it was Tn High
Believe he has coached at Honaker, Norton, Wise, Tn High and Wythe
Probly was Tn High I was thinking a Bristol team. He coached at Wise In the 90's maybe 91 or something.
GO VOLS
He coached at Wise twice 75 - 76 and late 80 or early 90 I think
Also was at Norton twice
Dang I did no this. Not that it a big deal. Just didnt know it. Sounds like he roamed around alot. Nice Guy tho.

One of the best men you could ever meet or play for
He does not get all the credit that is due
Seems as if coaches dont have multiple state wins they are forgotten
He went to schools thats programs had losing records and was able to turn them around
If I remember correct his Norton team may have not won a game as freshmen but won state as seniors
Yeah I always like coach Dotson. Just wasn't aware of how far he went back in this area. I think he heads up the local Habitat for humanity. Him and his wife both are good people.
GO VOLS
