"We are nearing the start of season two of the Coach Keathley Show, and I am excited to be apart of it once again," Forrest commented. "Last year was a stepping stone for us, and with a full year under the belt now, this year will only improve on what we brought to the table last year. Coach Keathley, the Miners organization, and I look forward to bringing the Eastern Kentucky audience something brand new and exciting this year."
During its debut season, the Coach Keathley Show kept fans informed on the Miners organization while providing several intriguing segments.
"As far as what the show will be like this year, we hope that it will give our viewing audience a closer and more in-depth look at the team and the individuals," said Forrest. "We hope to bring the individuals and personalities out for all of the Miners fans to see exactly what their favorite players are like, and hopefully throw some surprises out there as well. You never know what Coach Keathley will do, and that makes for an interesting brand of television."
