Most All State/All Star teams are going to be different in some way or the other. But their usually consistent about who's on these teams, meaning they usually have the same players but differ on where they put them. One may have a certain player on their 1st team while the other has that player on their 2nd team.
Here's the problem I have with what's went on with the AP the last two years. And I'm in no way disrespecting the kid from Breathitt Co. who made 1st team OL. The kid is a pretty decent football player. But he is not in the same conversation as Dane Jackson, Blake Gossett, Ethan Wolford, Chris Malala, or a Blake Moody. I'm sorry but he's just not.
Also, like I said before, usually the top players in the state are consistently mentioned somewhere on all the All State/All Star teams. And the four or five I mentioned are. Most were on the CJ team, the BGP team, the AP's team, and even the other KY football threads team. But this kid hasn't even been mentioned on any of those other teams but yet he's a 1st Team AP All Stater? Come on now, something is just off here. You just don't get overlooked by every other poll out there and then appear at the top of another. I could maybe understand if he appeared as an HM selection, but not a 1st Team. So yeah, I think it was definitely influenced.
