Prentiss Douglass was a halfback at the University of Michigan from 1907-1908 and spent one season as the head football coach at the University of Kentucky in between two stints as an assistant at Michigan. His 1911 UK team finished the season with a 7-3 record including four straight shutouts to start the season. His lone season at Kentucky was his only season as a college head coach. Douglass passed away in 1949 at the age of 62.
A former newspaper reporter who has roamed the southeastern United States for years covering football and eating way too many barbecue ribs, if there is such a thing.
