First things first, congrats to all of the young men who made the AP All-State team!!! It is a great honor and Im sure every one of you deserves it!!!

 

However, I find the "13 organizations or individuals" that vote on this team fairly ridiculous!!! You are telling me that there was not 1 football player in all of the Lexington area that was good enough to make any of the teams? Not 1 player from Lex Christ, Lex Cath, Henry Clay, Lafayette, Bryan Station, Dunbar, Scott Co or Clark Co that was good enough to make even honorable mention? I find that very very hard to believe!!! Heck, 2 OL in Lexington have signed with UK and 2 kickers off those teams have signed Div-1(1 of them Okla St, not sure about the other).

Maybe no one from Lexington voted.

Unfortunately for those players named and those not named, the AP team is an embarrassment to the AP.

Don't they have a newspaper in Lexington?:idunno:

 

Maybe you should check with them first.

Question: Who chooses Mr Football?

As I pointed out in the other AP all state thread, it was pretty amazing Josh Harris made 1st string in the Courier-Journal and nothing in the AP list. I realize people in one area of the state may not be familiar with players in a distant area but the AP seems to have taken it to an extreme.

TV stations have an AP vote and there are several of those in Lexington, in addition to the Herald-Leader.

Bu did they actually cast any votes? I thought I read that there should have been 20+ votes statewide but there were only 13. I had a hard time believing Zach Templin, Zach West or Kyle Bolin didn't get any votes at all from the Lex/CKY area.

Same way i feel about the cj team,just my opinion.

The kids that were mentioned and read this type of garbage probably really appreciate comments like these. Great job.

Very true and even better point.

Great point.....the players from the Metro will find places to play.....will make the voters think a little bit....guarantee you there will be several that make the pollsters look weak!!

At least a couple radio stations do as well.
