Someone said an interesting thing to me the other day that got me thinking about this. As more and more mountain kids start going to college to play at the next level, more and more of these guys that have played at this level will then finish their college career and a lot of the time move back or get a coaching job somewhere with the knowlege that they learned in college. I thought this was a valid point.
Also look at the states College, UK. Basketball has been on a decline and football has been on the rise. When I was young I wanted to be Kenny Walker or Rex Chapman. UK basketball was in it's hey-day. Now you have football coming to the forefront with UK playing in 3 straight bowls and also being on ESPN a lot playing in marquee games, and winning them against LSU, GA, ect. I think this generation will remember the Andre Woodsons, Stevie Johnsons, and Randall Cobbs. Plus the publicity of high school athletes that play also. They get to go home during the season and see themselves on sports overtime, or friday night flights ect.

I agree! The University of Kentucky's rising football program has helped the overall interest in KY high school football.
