Then someone better tell Dale Mueller because he said it is not limited to seniors only and given to the best player in Kentucky.

Dale is wrong on that one. Great coach, but it doesn't mean he knows the rules of every award.

It has ALWAYS been limited to seniors only.

As to the two votes for Quick, that's the first time I have EVER heard of an AP voter ignoring the rules and voting for an underclassman.


PS: Just saw on wikipedia this statement: The Kentucky Mr. Football Award is an honor given to the top high school football player in the state of Kentucky and in the KHSAA.

That's probably where Dale got that idea. It's incorrect however. Just looking at the list tells you that if underclassmen were eligible then you can guarantee that: Shaun Alexander would have had two, Michael Bush would have had two, and probably Lorenzen.
