John Hines is among the greatest the high school game has ever known around the commonwealth of Kentucky. Besides that, the cowboy hat, which has become his trademark, makes him easy to spot from a mile away. If there is one thing this series has taught us at KPGFootball; it is that all-timers, lifers, the best to have ever done it, share similar traits, similar characteristics. Hines has all the earmarks which denote him as belonging amongst the other greats we have featured in this series. He won the county’s first state football championship amongst its three schools when he turned the trick in 2014. His Pulaski County Maroons went 52-8 between 2013 and 2016 in addition to the championship before referenced. We are proud to get to feature this guy in our series. Hines belongs here.

Brody Calhoun from Trigg County maybe one of the best linebackers, at his level of play, of whom you haven’t heard @BrodyCalhoun22, @CoachEzell45, @TriggFootball, @khsaafootball, @KyHighFootball, @minguabeefjerky, @bigassfans

Brody Calhoun is an example of a star HS player who is very likely to play in college but at what competitive level we aren’t in a position to accurately forecast. You see, there is a possibility Calhoun isn’t done growing so to know at what college level he may play we would have to speculate how his frame finishes. We just aren’t in a position to know. Calhoun’s on field production is “off the charts” as the rising junior has made close to 160-career tackles and hasn’t taken his first 11th-grade class yet. We are approaching “Dead Period” so get ready. Not much lies on the other side of “Dead Period” apart from two preseason scrimmages and opening night. We’re ready. We hope you are. Enjoy the feature.
