Not all of the great football players across the commonwealth of Kentucky have the greatest of frames. Aiden Blanton isn’t going to wow anyone with his stand-up size. However, this kid is all ball player and his strength/power numbers are right impressive. Blanton has plenty of speed (4.7-second, 40) and quicks (4.3-second, pro-agility shuttle) and is bouncy (34-inch vertical) to boot. We believe this kid will have a monster year upcoming similar to the hugely productive year he enjoyed in 2025. Enjoy this look at one of the better linebackers in the commonwealth of Kentucky a year ago and a player to be closely monitored in 2026.

The Everly brothers told us “Johnny [was] a Joker (He’s a bird)/ A very funny joker (He’s a bird)… What they would have told us, were they still with us, is that Johnny isn’t the only Bird. Nash Bird is a “Bird” and a very smooth and not so funny weapon for whom to have to game plan if you are playing Coach Scott Marsh’s football team. Bird had a huge junior year and was a player who should have been on our Large School All-State Football Team. What can we tell you? We missed. We have our eyes on him now and if he continues to play his senior season the way he played in ’25, I wouldn’t count on us missing him a second time. Enjoy this feature.
