DI-A offers come largely at the completion of one's JR year and headed into their SR year...he had zero at Highlands. Highlands had zero major DI-A recruits on this team which means that big schools have little to no reason to go scout them as a high priority. The state's three top players this year played at Madison Southern, Warren East, and Woodford Co. Where you play has little to do with garnering actual offers.

 

Has BYU fallen to a mid-major type program??

Kinda depends on your view. They're independent I believe, so not in a conference at all let alone a major one. Still a solid program, going to a bowl every year.

I've heard Ivy League for Jensen. If true, terrific opportunity for that young man.

Shhh, he's rolling.

Warren Central and Warren County administration; best coach available is an ex-employee. Ed Smart.

I could get behind that. He's done an excellent job at Grayson Co., but I wonder if he will apply?

I wish JF the best and hope he gets an offer; as I know he wants to play at the next level. However, IMO he is not a D-1 caliber WR. A 6'-6'1 WR with average at best speed is a dime a dozen in this country... Aka not worth a college coach's time. Also, I know for a fact that JF met with multiple college coaches while he was at HHS when coaches were there meeting with Hodge; none ever came close to offering. Whether JF played at HHS, WC, or on the moon it wouldn't have mattered.

 

Spent then weekend with a bunch of FCS recruits. WR/DB was around 5'11 170 ran a 4.45 also a DE/OLB 6'3 215 ran a 4.6. That just shows the speed needed at those spots!

Your Highlands arrogance is staggering.

 

 

 

Hey just doing my best to spice up a dead thread...:thumb:

 

 

For Eastraider the Hodge kid is going to BYU...

4 of the 5 losses were to Highlands, Bowling Green, Desales and Owensboro

As a Highlands fan, I missed the kid. I wish him luck wherever he goes.

That's a good question. I could possibly picture him playing a strong safety type of position. However, I think again coaches would be faced with the issue of speed. I don't want to make it sound like I'm bashing the young man, I just don't believe he has D1 speed. Do you think he would have received offers had he played DB?

How does every thread posted on here get turned into something about Highlands or a NKY team????????????????????????

Maybe because this kid used to go to Highlands?! :idunno:

I bolded and italicized the word major 'cause I figured some would be a little slow to catch it...lot of good that did...Hodge was not a major DI-A recruit by any means. In fact, he was a very low one. Per Rivals.com he had ONE offer: BYU. He didn't pick up a single offer from his own home state nor the school right across the river. I have lobbied for him as a great player on other threads but if you want to try selling him as a major DI-A recruit, you're kidding yourselves. I included my original post below...not that I expect it to be read accurately.

Any idea where coach F eggins ends up? Back in college or HS somewhere in the state?
