Storm Warning: Micheal Gossett is throwing his hat in the ring for the title, “World’s Most Famous Gossett”

April 11, 2024 Fletcher Long 0

Michael Gossett is a freshman RB/FB who didn’t get any varsity run in ’23 but figures to get quite a bit of PT in ’24 owing to the graduation of two-time, All-State FB, Calil McNary. Gossett, a ’27, may also put his name in nomination for the world’s most famous person named, “Gossett,” and that competition is a bit stiffer than you may realize. Enjoy this edition of “Storm Warning.”

This prospect has a brother named Caden who showed in Western KY’s bowl game, a year ago, he was nothing at which to sneeze. That particular Veltkamp looks to be headed to the portal, or maybe has already shipped out; we don’t know, we cover the high school game. This Veltkamp is a freaking football player and plenty versatile. He will challenge for “Mr. Football” next season and will likely be the district, region, and maybe even classification’s “Player of the Year.” Enjoy this feature and don’t forget to get by your local Independence Bank and discover why and how our people, financial products, and services have started a revolution in the Kentucky banking industry.

Russellville is a program we are accustomed to watching thrive. It wasn’t too many years ago the Panthers were taking Pikeville to the wire in the 1A title game on Kroger Field on the campus of UK. The Panthers limped through a tough season but showed some promise as young players filled spots one usually see filled by young guys. Bodes well for the future.
