What about coaches? Jeremy Pruitt and Kevin Sherrer both currently at UGA coached at Hoover HS when I was a student there. Pruitt taught my strength training class and I had Sherrer for team sports class.

The only Coach I've had the pleasure of meeting in person (not counting super casual interactions) was Coach Pat Summitt and while I'd always had major respect for her and what she accomplished, my respect went through the roof when I met with her. She is truly amazing -- beyond just being brilliant she was/is one of the finest humans I've ever met.

I could probably meet Majors, Fulmer, and Jones if I asked my LB/all-but-uncle and probably a few others if I really tried but those would be more difficult. I always feel weird about outright asking to meet coaches/famous people if that makes sense. I know that's prevented me from meeting more folks and I'd like to get over that but it's a part of my personality.

ETA: Also, very cool about Pruitt and Sherrer!
