Quinton Simon is an under the radar guy who only got a couple nights run under the “Friday Night Lights.” Still, with limited opportunity, Simon has proven himself an exceptional talent among ’29 WR/LB/DB/KR/ATH across the commonwealth of Kentucky. One could even say Simon has been keeping it very cool there in the Fort Thomas, KY football scene. Simon was a star on the JV in both football and basketball and figures to mature into an every down, multi-phase threat for the Bluebirds in 2026. Simon sports a 3.77-GPA and at 5’10,” 175-pounds, he will be a tough matchup for plenty of opponents going forward. Coach Bob Sphire will be mighty happy, going forward into the ’26 season, to have an offensive/defensive/special teams (returner) weapon on the roster like Simon. Let’s keep it comfortable out there, Kentucky, and allow us to help you in that regard at Big Ass Fans!

Bryce Armstrong from Highlands appears to be the ‘next big thing’ among Bluebird players @BryceArmstrong2, @taydenlorenzen2, @HighlandsFB, @khsaafootball, @KyHighFootball, @bigassfans, @eCampusdotcom

There aren’t too many ’29 QBs around Kentucky as athletic as Highlands High’s Bryce Armstrong. Armstrong is a 6’1,” 190-pound rising sophomore who had pretty solid numbers a season ago backing up one of the KHSAA’s better senior signal callers. Rio Litmer has moved along to “greener pastures” and Armstrong looks (to us) to be the likely heir apparent at the position for one of the KHSAA’s more storied and successful programs. Fort Thomas is coming off a 10-3 which saw them defeat some right impressive opponents in 2025. Highlands plays a tough schedule ever year which incudes a rivalry game with Covington Catholic which is a “bucket list” type match-up. Enjoy this look at a young phenom headed straight for stardom as early as the ’26 opener.
