The sentence with correct capitalization is:
"My coaches have always encouraged me, so I knew Coach Honeycutt would be really proud of me."
In this sentence, "coaches" is correctly in lowercase because it is a common noun, while "Coach Honeycutt" is correctly capitalized because it is a proper noun referring to a specific individual.
