Jason Todd graduated high school in 1988. He played quarterback at Lincoln County 1984, 1985, 1986 and 1987. He was an All-SEC punter at UK.

 

Eric Givens' brother, Kelvin, also played at Louisville. He graduated from LC in 1990. Eric graduated in 1982.

 

There are a few other D-I football players from LC. Most recently, Braxston Miller and Trent Calhoun are at WKU. I will try to post the others later.

Fort Campbell (D1) players and the year they graduated FC.

 

Marcus McClinton (05) University of Kentucky

 

Micah Johnson (06) University of Kentucky

 

Leonard Gordon (06) Notre Dame

 

Orlando Misaalefua (06) Western Kentucky

 

Zach Rhinestine (08) Western Kentucky

 

Josh Carter (09) Western Kentucky

 

Marcus was signed as an undrafted free agent by the Patriots this year, but has been released. He is currently living in Lexington and attempting to make an NFL team during the preseason.

 

Micah could be a 1st round pick next April, just needs to avoid the injury bug this year.
