If you are a regular reader of the site, and read last evening’s submission about the QB controversy which, at least in theory, potentially exists between returning starter Jake Hyden and transfer Josh McClurg, then you probably noticed that, while we can’t say for sure who’s going to throw the […]

You’re the Class 2A, district 7 Eagles from Lexington Christian coming off an 11-2 season. You have just graduated one of the most dynamic and explosive dual threat QBs in the Commonwealth of Kentucky in Logan Nieves. I mean how do you replace a quarter-back who throws for 2,110 yards […]
