Are you talking about the AP all state team? If so Wills only got an honorable mention which is a shame in my opinion.

Yes that is the reference. I also agree, a shame. Northeastern Kentucky always gets the shaft in any poll or selection process that is administered by the Assosiated Press. The sportswriters in Nothern Ky, Western Ky, Louisville and Central Ky never get to this part of the state. Our only chance is forcing their teams to have to come and play at our facilities before they take note. Even still we get no respect unless we beat one of their teams. They don't know or care who we are.
Case in point.
Ivan McGlone 265 career wins at Russell over 32 seasons, 2 coach of the year awards and last year they introduced him as the head Coach of "Russell County". During this years KHSAA radio broadcast the color commentator refered to us as Russell County. In last weeks Herald Leader Mike Fields(yeah I'm calling him out by name) Continued his pattern of pretending to know about Russell football and getting it wrong again! He said Ivan Won his 255th game at Belfry. Thats about the 4th mistake his department has made this season when reporting on Russell football.
This all just makes me sick to my stomach.
Wills got selected as All-State Honorable Mention when he should have been 1st team linebacker. Heck I'd say he may be the best in the state when it comes to coordinating a defense from the field.
The ADI doesn't vote in AP Poll but I don't know if they report on the All-State selections.
