When does the Louisville roster get announced?

Was this voted on? Or went by stats?

How was this decided??

The roster is decided via a vote amongst all of the coaches around the state.

The Louisville area roster will be voted on by the coaches in the Louisville area.

Well that sounds crazy! There are no 1A kids on this list! It's ridiculous man. For instance just using Beechwood as an example they are the defending State Champion and on a path to Repeat and play in 3 Consecutive State Championships. Christian County has 2 kids at DB that got voted on this Team! No disrespect but lets look at Beechwood (Defending State Champion) Elijah McKenney at Beechwood should easily have made this list. Led the State in Ints. as a Junior (All Classes) and has given up 1 TD all season. Gets no action this year because of previous accomplishments. That's just 1 example.

You have to be nominated. Was your player nominated?

Not sure but this selection process seems eternally flawed just by looking at this list. Not taking anything away from any of the kids but it seems rigged. No way off all the Kids in the State anyone can tell me no 1A Players deserve to be on this list. Makes me fade out on these type nominations and list as they are without a doubt biased and unfair!

Isn't Paintsville 1A?

It is in fact, but I didn't go thru each and every name when I see multiple Teams with multiple players. That's 1 1A Player is that a consolation prize and that was from a Team that consistently gets guys rated but not a State Championship Team that if they make it back will be playing in their 3rd Consecutive State Title...This smells and reeks of bias and bs.

Make sure that your coach nominated the young man before you get upset.. can't vote him into the game if he isn't on the ballot

Oh no I'm not upset at all just seeing how there are no 1A kids on the list virtually. I don't have a player in mind per se. I brought up Beechwood merely as an example since they are State Champs...

I would get your coaches to nominate or possibly an alternative. There are players on here that will probably not play. My son is on the list and I can tell you that he won't play. He'll be there cheering on one of his teammates on the list, but someone else can take his spot and play

Looking at that list, it is full of division 1 and 2 football players. I really don't think size of school has, or should have, anything to do with it. It is literally called the best of the bluegrass. There are triple digits of excellent high school football players, many of which who will play division 3 college ball, that don't make it.

If they were nominated and considered among the best in the state, why would coaches in the state not vote for Class A players?
