Coach Gus Allen on the other hand was with Hermitage from 1982-1992. 11 seasons at the helm of the Panthers Coach Allen posted 6 winning seasons and reached the playoffs 3 times. Those 3 times equated to a 2-3 mark with the two wins coming in the 1984 season in which the Panthers won the AAA Central Region title before falling to Hampton in the state semifinals. When Coach Allen left Hermitage he did so with a mark of 64-49-2.
