Who will be some of the top football players in NKY class of 2026? Can't wait for football season.

He won't get mentioned among the top guys, but I think that Dixie's QB Mason Fields is really good and under-recruited.

He has the size 6'4 around 220 pounds.

The potential is there. Statistically, just average last year.

Simon Kenton WR Grayson Harris had 89 catches 1368 yards and 13 tds. He also plays some DB and punts.

LB/DE/TE Brayden Schoborg 6'3 210 had 82 tackles, 7 TFL, 1 sack, 1 int and 1 safety. 

Bellevue transfer now at SK ATH Jordan Pendleton 5'10 160 had 1470 all purpose yards and 24 tds.

 

Gabe Williams RB/DB - Highlands

Tayden Lorenzen QB/TE - Highlands

If I'm not mistaken didn't Harris lead KY in receiving yards last year? Or was at least in the top 5 for majority of the year?

Top receiver in 6A for most of the season.

I knew I saw him at top somewhere. Nasty combo with him and Weaver, I know Weaver was up near the top also in 6A. Whose throwing to them this year? Probably going to be a little less airing it out though with Lucas gone. I think Lucas' logic was...when in doubt air it out.

Certainly some average stats, but I think that is a little more indicative of the supporting cast than him. Big kid with a very live arm and can move a bit. Really good player imo.

I know Pendleton played qb at Bellevue so he might be the next qb. Not sure. They have several options.

I see the supporting cast last year being better than this year. Gregg and Anderson are big losses. Fields being better this year will be because he did the work and has grown from last year’s experience.
