"Chief" Myers, and the rest by Charley Moran. According to Centre publications, "Myers realized he was dealing with a group of exceptional athletes, who were far beyond his ability to coach. He needed someone who could the team justice, and found that person in Charles Moran."[2][3] In 1916, Myers became coach at his alma mater Centre after coaching at North Side High School in Fort Worth, Texas. His team there included future Centre stars Bo McMillin and Red Weaver, who were recruited by boosters to Somerset High School in Kentucky where they joined up with Red Roberts. Also at North Side were Sully Montgomery, Matty Bell, Bill James, and Bob Mathias.[2] McMillin kicked and made his only ever field goal attempt to defeat Kentucky 3 to 0. Edgar Diddle was a halfback on the team.[4]Schedule{{CFB schedule| rankyear = no | poll = no |{{CFB schedule entry | date = October 6 | w/l = w | nonconf = y | opponent = Kentucky Military Institute | site_stadium = Cheek Field | site_cityst = Danville, KY | score = 104–0 }} |{{CFB schedule entry | date = October 20 | w/l = l | nonconf = y | away = y | opponent = DePauw | site_stadium = | site_cityst = Greencastle, IN | score = 0–6 }} |{{CFB schedule entry | date = October 27 | w/l = w | nonconf = y | away = y | opponent = Maryville | site_stadium = | site_cityst = Maryville, TN | score = 34–0 }} |{{CFB schedule entry | date = November 3 | w/l = w | nonconf = y | opponent = Kentucky | site_stadium = Cheek Field | site_cityst = Danville, KY | score = 3–0 }} |{{CFB schedule entry | date = November 10 | w/l = w | nonconf = y | away = y | opponent = Kentucky Wesleyan | site_stadium = | site_cityst = Owensboro, KY | score = 37–0 }} |{{CFB schedule entry | date = November 17 | w/l = w | nonconf = y | away = y | opponent = Sewanee | site_stadium = | site_cityst = Chattanooga, TN | score = 28–0 }} |{{CFB schedule entry | date = November 24 | w/l = w | nonconf = y | opponent = Transylvania | site_stadium = | site_cityst = Lexington, KY | score = 28–0 }} |{{CFB schedule entry | date = November 29 | w/l = w | nonconf = y | opponent = {{cfb link|year=1917|team=Georgetown Tigers|title=Georgetown}} | site_stadium = Cheek Field | site_cityst = Danville, KY | score = 13–0 }} }}[5] References1. ^{{cite book|url=https://www.amazon.com/The-Wonder-Team-Colonels-1917-1924/dp/1884532993|title=The Wonder Team:The Centre College Praying Colonels and Their Rise to the Top of the Football World, 1917-1924|author=Robert W.
