Is Beechwood's Cam Hergott the front runner for Kentucky Mr. Football?

Who chose this All-State team?     I believe the article said it was chosen by coaches and that 90 of them returned ballots.

Correct. If NKY coaches don't vote, that's on them.

  • Credit to Wayne Litmer Photography.  Great shot!

  • I didn't think he looked like Mr. Kentucky today.

  • I was very impressed by Cam when he played against CovCath. I really respect it when players get the most out of their physical abilities and he’s doing it. BW puts a ton on his plate and he’s stepped

Boy would I love to see those coaches outted, ALONG with the results of the crooked vote attached to the names of those who turned in ballots.

Do you really think there is a conspiracy against Hergott?

Nooooo. Not a conspiracy theorist. Where did I say that? 

Votes like these - and there's a history of this nonsense - show personal agendas, territorial interests and a complete lack of taking the vote seriously. 

I'm guessing you disagree with that? Curious to hear your thoughts and, honestly, please defend Wimsatt, Sherron, and McNamee ahead of Hergott? I'm all ears.

You said the votes were crooked, what are you basing that on?

Just now, colonel-fan said:

You said the votes were crooked, how you came to that conclusion?

Crooked as in wrong, filled with personal agendas, territorial interests and neglect. Absolutely. My guess is most people would agree with that terminology as well. Uncertain why your interpretation led to "a conspiracy against Hergott". Never said that. 

Again, please defend those three QB's over Hergott...still waiting for your response to that. If you believe that was the right vote, you'd be in the minority. 

Waiting....

You'll be waiting a while then.

Not my job to defend anyone's decision on how they voted, but reasonable minds can differ. 

I think a big part of this is the 130 coaches who didn't vote and if there is a voting criteria or not.

Good point there on the criteria. Very valid. 

Nothing to do with the voting, is Cam playing anywhere next year? Would like to follow him if he is.

Cam currently has offers from:

Bryant
Butler
Centre
Dayton
Morehead State
Mt. Saint Joseph
Siena Heights
Valparaiso

He's also getting action from Cornell, EKU, Miami (OH), Middle Tennessee, Penn, and Samford.

Hergott was named Honorable Mention on the Courier-Journal all state team:

1st Team - Gavin Wimsatt, Owensboro

2nd Team - Kaiya Sheron, Somerset

3rd Team - Isaac McNamee, Pikeville

 

Complete list of Courier Journal 2020 All-State football offense selections

 

 

Not only Hergott, but Nick Broyles of Franklin County should be in the top three. Broyles will be #5 and Hergott #6 in completion percent in a season in KY history when they update the record book.  

Hergott should be #9 in career completion percent in KY state history at 65.5% when they update the records. A better career completion percent than Brian Brohm, Elijah Sindelar, Gino Guidugli, Jared Lorenzen and Tim Couch - to name a few.

Hergott generated 3,545 yards offense this year. Sheron was more than 1,000 yards behind Hergott with 2,481 yards. Wimsatt had 2,478 offensive yards. McNamee had 1,660 offensive yards, almost 2,000 yards less than Hergott. 

Finally, let's add in Hergott earned a ring this season and none of the others did. Hergott won two state titles as QB (2018 and 2020).

Great post and completely agree, but Hergott actually finished higher than Broyles in completion percentage this year.

Good catch. Stats updated last night after that post. Hergott finished the season at completion percent of 73.2, #5 all time in KY history.

Is this even a debate? It is lopsided when you add up all the stats (historic state record level completion percent; 2,500 yards passing; 1,000 yards rushing) plus a state title and title game MVP. What justification can anyone make this year for any player other than Hergott as Mr. Football?

If he would have played the final week of the year and the first playoff game he would have been over 3,000 yards passing and compile that with over 1,000 rushing that makes for such a great year. He deserves it. I would hate for him to not get it because NKY coaches don’t like to vote on these things.
