So many we are forgetting.....here are some I can remember from NKY area.

Not sure on the spelling of some of the names---

 

NCC

Jeff Brady - UK and then NFL

Frank Jacobs - Notre Dame

Mike Kiernen - Notre Dame

Zack Kiernen - U of L

 

Campbell County

Bryan Shepard - UC

John Turner - UK and then NFL

 

Boone County

John Alford - WKU

 

Cov.Cath

Paul Haldon - cant remember but thought it was in the Ivy League

 

Are you sure about Hladon? I didn't think he played college ball...not that he wasn't capable of it. I just didn't think he did.

Boone County

 

Irv Goode-OL- UK

 

 

How long has WKU been D1?

TE from Corbin-Corey Reeves-UK/ Center-Nolan DeVaughn-UK

Other TE's from Corbin- Martin Earl Pennington-UK, Dan Chase-UK

 

Vin Hoover is another TE who played for UK. He was the starting TE for the UK team that went 10-1 back in the 70's after transferring from the Univ of Tampa when they dropped their program.

 

I thought that Dan Chase ended up at WKU, I could be wrong though.

Boone County

 

Irv Goode-OL- UK

 

 

How long has WKU been D1?

 

My guess is the early 90's. Before that they were in the OVC with EKU, Akron, Central Florida, Morehead, Murray, Middle Tenn State, Marshall, Tenn Chattanooga and a couple more that I can't remamber. While it was called D-1 AA, some people did not consider it D-1 football.

Vin Hoover did not play for the 1977 Kentucky team that went 10-1.

 

He must have already graduated.

Christian County:

 

Keith Tandy – West Virginia

John Rader - Breathitt County - UK

Rich McCune - Breathitt County - UK
