You can follow the status of all former KY Future Stars via Twitter @Rhughes33rb. Big thanks to Coach Hughes for all he is doing for our youth - just my two cents but this is a great event for 7th and 8th grade football players in our state. Please see below for 2011 & 2012 All Stars moving on to the next level in college.

 

Blake Asher - EKU

Mason Alstatt - Wofford

Connor Foos - EKU

Devin Gentry - Georgia State

Zy'Aire Hughes - Kentucky

Devin Key - WKU

Vince Lococo - Louisville

Damon Lowe - EKU

Max Martin - Louisville

Nathan Murray - EKU

Jailen Reed - Lindsey Wilson

 

Please add if I missed anyone. The list should grow over the next few days.

 

If memory doesn't fail me, Tennessee beat KY the 7th grade season in Overtime - blocked PAT. Kentucky lost the 8th grade version by a TD (televised on Fox Sports).

 

Great memories and look forward to watching the list grow over the next few days - and keeping up with the guys over the next 4 years.

Add...

Landon Hurst - Morehead State

2011 and 2012? Confused. Are you saying these kids played in the game and are now moving on to college?

Blake Asher I believe is going to U of L.

Yes...the guys played in the game as 7th and 8th graders in 2011 and 2012. All of the guys were team mates on the KY roster.

Correct...Asher to Louisville. Sorry about the error Inside Zone. Good catch.

Collin England- Union College was on that team also.

Adding Wells Purdom to the list. Another KY Future Stars Alumni. Committed to Kentucky.

 

Thanks for sharing MayfieldFan.

Hard to believe these same players finished 3rd in the nation as FBU Kentucky members along with Drake Jackson UK, LaMarius Kinslow WKU, Kash Daniels UK, Tyler Garcia Lindsey Wilson, Zaire Hughes UK, Nathan Murray EKU,Mason Helton Lindsey Wilson,and several others never understood why this team never thumped Tennessee because in FBU they thumped everybody but Oregon after a 20 hr bus ride and little time to recoup.

The finals were in San Antonio that year. They were an impressive group of kids.

True - KY Future Stars is a different outfit...much different from FBU (although the 2 were once connected). The 12-13 guys at the top of this list played for KY Future Stars under Coach Rico Hughes.

 

Looks like 2016 tryout dates are set for April 23-24 in BG and Louisville. Two pretty solid locations to host a tryout. If you guys know any talented 7th and 8th graders, I highly encourage you to give it a shot. Guys from KY Future Stars (and FBU) are really doing a solid job in HS and graduating on to opportunities in college.

FYI - I don't work for them. Just a big fan.

I understand they are not the same. It have help coached the FBU 7th graders behind this group. We had tryouts and no kid had position on the team just related to who their coach is. I'm believe in the 2 yrs in was associated with Fbu ky 7TH and 8th grades we beat Illinois bad and an. AAU team from Minnesota 7th grade yr and was Regional champs. "As far as we could go." Eight grade year we smashed Tennessee, beat team Louisville. Beat Team south Florida 26-6 before losing to National Champion Georgia. Scoring the only points allowed on Georgia that yr.

I know that. They shared many of the same players. For instance Collin England was on both teams, as well as many others.
