I am sure there have probably been some athletes leave Highlands and gone to other schools but more often than not it is kids leaving their respective district and going to Highlands.

Derek Smith was from Silver Grove's district..really can't blame him for leaving...Draud was from Edgewood....

Oldbird mentioned Brad Carr, Brad went through the Covington School System his whole life and went to Highlands for a year or two then came back to Covington.

The only thing that is interesting is that the Nevels kid is telling others that he is going to Highlands to "win a ring".

As for contacts with Mueller, you do not have to speak to the head coach to make your interest known. The head coach doesn't have to communicate verbally to the kid himself, but he can do it through second and third parties.

Dave Guidugli, father of a few kids that have/are going through Highlands, was seen smoozing the Nevels during the SK/Highlands hoop game this past Monday.

I would find it hard to believe that Mueller had no inkling of Nevels interest in coming to Highlands, especially since this has been brewing since October and November...

I am not insinuating that Mueller has done anything wrong....

I doubt SK will have much beef with Nevels leaving other than they wished he would have stayed...even though it is being done primarily for athletic reasons.

this is getting comical.labs, obviously you are getting second and third handed info. if you KNEW jordan nevels you would know he would never say something like that. it is not his personality to boast or brag or talk out of turn. the nevels are some of the finest people i know, and i've known them probably 20 years. its time to let this thing play out and for people to stop the "he said or i heard stuff"

What reason would Mueller have not to play him?

 

Surely too goodness he would at least use him to maybe returns punts or something. Does anybody know if Nevels can kick?

 

If not he could always use a year of J.V. to get acclimated to the speed of the game.

labs, believe me, this kid will be a star at highlands. highlands has nobody and i mean NOBODY on their team right now with the kind of abilities this kid has.

I'm pretty sure the rumor is true and Jordan will be transfering to Highland's following this semester's end at SK. He will also be moving to the Highland's school district. I am pretty sure he will start school there next week. He's a very good student so to say that his decision has anything to do with sports is an unfair assumption to make.

he will probably play where ever he wants to. this kid is the real deal! he has the intangibles you just cant teach. he has great hands,great instincts, and above all a great attitude.

an old guy at work told me once " any color worm is good as long as its black" so i use black rubber night crawlers more then anything else when bass fishing
