McLean County’s Cody Wilson is the Independence Bank Revolutionary Player of the Week

There is no better time than the present to anoint another Independence Bank player of the week. Independence Bank is proud to sponsor a weekly article highlighting players in the areas where Independence Bank flourishes who embody the same type of revolutionary service to their respective football teams which has made Independence Bank unique and special in the banking industry.

Independence Bank has a goal of achieving everyday excellence, and this week we are focusing on a player whose performance both has and continues to exceed the Cougars’ and the McClean County, Kentucky community’s expectations. We are focusing on the class of 2022, OL/DL, Cody Wilson, from McClean County, Kentucky.

Cody hasn’t even loaded any highlights onto his Hudl page yet, being he is only now a sophomore. However, we went ahead and linked his Hudl page for you above (hit the blue Cody Wilson which is underlined) as we expect he will be loading highlights there very soon.

Cody attends McClean County High School. The closest Independence Bank branch to Cody’s high school lies approximately 7.9 miles from Calhoun, traveling down KY-136E, in neighboring Livermore, Kentucky. Hey, Cougars, go see the many banking services our friends, who brought you this article, offer your area. Revolutionary service is awaiting you, right there in McLean County, by simply traveling to our Liverpool, Kentucky branch on 614 Henton Street.

Cody played in only 2 games for the Cougars of McLean County High School in 2018. Of course the 5-7 inch fire-hydrant of a footballer was a guard and he was, after all, just a freshman playing on a team Coach Zach Wagner (pictured to the left) led to an 8-4 finish.

There are lots of pieces back in 2019 and chief among them is a kid we have before featured in Peyton Caraway, RB/LB. However, Caraway is going to require some help from an offensive line clearing the way for his rushing attempts from scrimmage. Caraway will also need some defensive down-lineman help keeping offensive linemen off of him and occupied enabling this flow to the football. We believe Cody Wilson will prove up to the job.

Wilson is a rising sophomore. Sophomores, if they are any count like we certainly believe Wilson to be, should work themselves into the rotation and even the starting lineup sometime over the course of year two.

Wilson got off to a fine start, finding the “Friday Night Lights” a couple times in his freshman year. You will see much more from the football player, who is also a promising baseball player, as 2019 unfolds.

Congratulations to Cody Wilson, from McClean County High School in Calhoun, Kentucky for his Revolutionary Play which has earned him this week’s recognition from the fastest growing bank in the Commonwealth of Kentucky…your friends at Independence Bank.
