There was a thread on here about a decade ago of football players from Northern Kentucky who went on to play football in college. It's been collecting dust so I figured I'd give it a bump by starting a new one. I'll copy and paste what I can find from that thread into here.

Aaron Floyd is a cornerback who graduated from Boone in the class of 2015 and played 4 years at UofL and then one more year at UT-Chattanooga as a graduate transfer.

John Mark Shutt is a class of 2019 linebacker/fullback who played at Concordia Ann Arbor.

Dvion Davis is a class of 2022 cornerback currently at KY Wesleyan.

Tyler Whipple is a class of 2023 wide receiver who played at Morehead State and transferred out. I think he ended up at Hanover but I'm not sure if he made the football team.

Kaleb Byndon is a class of 2023 defensive back who played at Anderson University and transferred out after his freshman year. I think he ended up at KY State.

Elijah Johnathan is a class of 2023 WR who also played at Anderson University and transferred out after his freshman year. I'm not sure if he has resurfaced anywhere.
