They defiantly forgot some kids.

[Clyde]

They defiantly forgot some kids.

 

Why were they defiant in their picks?

[Voice of Reason]

They defiantly forgot some kids.

 

They meaning coaches and recruiters? This is a top 50 chosen by coaches and recruiting services.

[ShamrockChamps]

"Defiantly"?? Oh geez here we go....

[norse1]

I'm witnessed 2 of the kids on this list get blown up by a few kids not on this list.. They have the measurements though and that's all that matters

So being "blown up" means you can't play? Every football player is going to be "blown up" occasionally.

2 kids north of Scott County?

 

"Compiled by Jason Frakes..."

 

...oh.

[Clyde]

2 kids north of Scott County?

 

"Compiled by Jason Frakes..."

 

...oh.

 

Actually it's 3.

Jason Frakes doesn't know much about NKY football players. I see they listed a X linebacker Dillon Powell ran past him several times!

For those who question the list, please name a player you thought was overlooked and list his credentials. i. e. Is the player listed on scout, rivals or any recruiting service? If listed, how are they ranked? What schools are recruiting them? What awards/recognition did the player achieve last year or in summer camps? etc. Basically, try to back up what you say with something more than your opinion.

[NKY Bandit]

I cringe whenever I see 'recruiting service'. Looks like some checks didn't clear.

[norse1]

Let me rephrase it. They were beat consistently by other players who may of been slightly smaller or lacked name recognition. My point being if you didn't make a list or get some star ranking doesn't mean you are not a good ball player.

Does that need to be stated?

One kid who I am curious to see what options are presented is Hunter Ziegelmeyer from CCH. Jr. 6'6 250ish. Moved from TE to OT this year. Coming off of a knee injury in basketball.

 

My guess is he'll have some nice options.
