Here is a different thought (only a little of topic lol) how many kids from the mountains have been good enough to play D1 and didn't get the recognition/exposure they deserved.

Maybe it isn't so much the case anymore but back before having technology always at are finger tips I'm sure a lot of kids went unnoticed.

I can tell you one for sure...Floyd Branham Middlesboro...In my opinion he is one of the best linebackers to ever play in the mountains.

I can tell you two from Harlan...Larry Kirksey (Probably the most successful career in football from someone in the mountains/coaching wise. He coached Jerry Rice at the 49ers, currently coaches for the Houston Texans, and has coached at many other places) and Wallace Wah Wah Jones only player to be All-American in both football and basketball at UK.
