Jacob Parker, the one to whom the white arrow points, is a late to the party player like so many others we have before featured. Parker transferred in to Breathitt from a high school which didn’t field a football team. He has been a wonderful surprise with a work-ethic which encircles many kids his age and has now worked himself into someone we have noticed. Look for him to start along the Big Blue Wave in ’22 at OT and to contribute at DE. HB.

That information is in this article and for the exclusive use of our subscribers. That’s why you pay us “the big bucks.” Enjoy the article and try to learn something. HB.

We hope we aren’t being “Cat-fished” here; but, if we aren’t, and if there is such a person who played as well as the 2018 stats indicate, he has to be considered one of the best DEs in western-Kentucky entering the 2019 football season. We suppose time will tell. HB

February 12, 2019 Fletcher Long 1

It seemed like this kid just had it all. He had the ideal frame for a tackle at 6-6 and 315 pounds. He had offers pouring in from places like Georgia and Alabama. He had been ranked by the Knoxville News Sentinel as one of the Class of 2020’s top-ten […]
