How can you say the howell kid isnt good if u would like go to khsaa.org and look at lastyear stats this kid was #3 in the state in 1a and in the top 25 in all of kentucky

Players who have gaudy stats against inferior competition do not impress me...Nothing personal against those players, but do it against the big boys and you will get a lot more respect. After three games, Belfry has one player who has 20 carries, total...They had 16 different ballcarriers against East Ridge.

[bucslover68]

1. Lewis---Clay County---Many records will be broken.
2. Varney---Belfry---Pound for pound the best all-around player in the mountains.
3. Setser---Prestonsburg---Legitimate college prospect..
4. Banks---LCC---Another great all around player, maybe not great at any one thing, but tough as nails and good at lots of things.
5. Bowling---South Laurel---Another record setter at QB.
6. Dillon/Richardson---Johnson Central---Neither real flashy, but strong and tough and run behind a great line.
7. Lee---Belfry---As talented a player as any in the mountains, but needs more carries and more consistency.
8.Harmon---Pikeville---As good a back as Pikeville has had in 20 years.
9.Greer---Fantastic all-around player.
10. Olinger---Hazard---Great passer and real good size.
11. Craynon...Prestonsburg...Another head in a two-headed monster for the Blackcats.
12.Fugate---Breathitt---Big and tough runner.
There are many others and I numbered these, but they are not necessrily in any order...There are so many good ones in the mountains and it is really hard to say who is best especially when you don't get to see them all play live.

[BoSox5]

With his first two games of the season in the books I would have to say Adams from Hazard has to be in this discussion.

[Windsprint]

1.Banks(LCC) plays harder than any kid I've seen
2. Fugate(Breathitt) very nice player
3. Travis ( PCC) quickest kid I've seen this year
4. Lewis (Clay) best pocket passer)
5. Campbell(hazard) a" Beast"
There are many other great players in the mountains that I haven't had the fortune to see YET. These are simply the best of what I have seen so far. Many more games coming up.

[I Rule The World]

[Estaban Esteves]

[Bobcat_Dad]

Middlesboro- All Stater Hunter Adams

Can't believe nobody has even mentioned his name! 5 Div 1 Offers!

I think that is just a rumor floating around. His father said he has some intrest but no D-1 offers yet. Hunter is good kid and great football player. Hope someone offers him.

[fan first]

Middlesboro- All Stater Hunter Adams

Can't believe nobody has even mentioned his name! 5 Div 1 Offers!

Please post anything that shows that he has D-1 offers. Anything! I heard he had 1 maybe from Western and alot of schools that show some level of interest.
With that being said, Hunter Adams is one of the top ten players in the mountains. Very athletic. DB and punt returner at next level.

Top players are Lewis, Fugate, Varney, Sester, Greer, Travis, Adams, Banks.

[Gator]

JC's Dillon and Richardson both outplayed Breathitts Fugate and Bell Co. Greer on both sides of the ball when they played, wasn't even close!

[Jed Clampett]

my vote goes to Ryan Kelly at Sheldon Clark. He has rushed for over 400 yards and scored nine touchdowns and also second on the team in tackles.:letsparty

Yeah im not sure which but the one that played linebakcer last year and this year is the one tht gets my vote. But dont get me wrong they both are good its just that one stands out more than the other. IMO
