Get Ready Gridsters…

April 22, 2017 Fletcher Long 1

Had an opportunity to speak with Ricco Hughes today who, incidentally, is celebrating his birthday and he told me 40 kids made the make-up tryout at Louisville Western this past Tuesday, April 18.  Ricco is very excited about this years Tennessee-Kentucky Game as he feels Kentucky will boast plenty of talent […]

Report from Lexington Lafayette…

April 15, 2017 Fletcher Long 0

The Lexington Tryout for the Kentucky Future Stars Team was today at historic Lexington Lafayette High School in Lexington, Kentucky.  There were lots of skills at the Combine in Louisville and what Kentucky Future Stars really needed to show in Lexington were bigs.  Well…they did.  Two really impressive linemen from […]

Russellville Rolls when the Rooster Crows!

April 15, 2017 Fletcher Long 0

There is no doubt Anthony Woodard’s nickname of “Rooster” makes the all nickname team.  But Rooster Woodard is much more than a nickname.  Woodard has been on the All-Star radar for some time and has been a multiple selection to play for both Team Kentucky FBU and Kentucky Future Stars […]

LaVell Makes All The “Wright” Moves…

April 11, 2017 Fletcher Long 0

LaVell Wright is one of the best pure athletes in the Commonwealth of Kentucky.  He’s 6’0″ tall and weighs in at a stocky, but still lean, 180 pounds, has incredibly long arms, runs the forty in the mid to high 4’s depending on surface and weather, and reportedly dead lifts […]

Isiah Forrest…Look Who Decided to Come to the Party!

April 11, 2017 Fletcher Long 0

What can one say about Isiah Forrest?  He hasn’t been out on the Combine Circuit and Kentucky Prep Gridiron doesn’t believe he has garnered any post-season distinction.  It is very plausible the Kentucky Future Stars Combine is his first foray into attempting to earn his way onto any State or National […]

Report from the Louisville Combine…

April 11, 2017 Fletcher Long 0

The Louisville Kentucky Future Stars Combine was Sunday at Louisville’s historic Ballard High School.  The stars of Kentucky’s 2021 Class were well represented.  The combine featured players running the forty on what amounted to a shaggy, grass track which doesn’t lend itself, usually, to very fast times; however, there were […]

Bryce Yates…He’s got you covered

April 6, 2017 Fletcher Long 0

Two-time All-State selection Bryce Yates has for what you are looking in a Cornerback and a Quarterback both at this level and at the next.  He’s the son of a coach too…so check the box marked football IQ.  Bryce has been out on the State Level and has made both […]

Ethan Mills…Where’d He Go?

April 3, 2017 Fletcher Long 0

Knox County’s Ethan Mills is one of those “scatter-backs” you not only can’t really see, but you probably couldn’t catch him, even if you could see him.  Ethan is listed at 5’8,” though that may be generous, and he weighs in at 155 pounds.  The 40 yard dash reported time […]

Preston Spurlock…Leslie County’s Tough Man!

April 2, 2017 Fletcher Long 0

There are just kids who look the part.  I don’t know if it is the scowl on Preston Spurlock’s face, his Mohawk, or his penchant for contact but if you were to draw a Defensive Football Player you might even draw his picture.  Preston has played nothing but MLB, and […]
