Prestonsburg's Michael Burchett, Austin McKinney and (JR) Alex Griffith have either been on official visits or have them coming up.

Caleb Watkins has made or is making unofficial visits to UK, Western, Vandy, Marshall, EKU, Georgetown, and Wofford (who has offered him a full ride)

**LWC** · 09-30-2009, 03:14 PM

I remember someone saying that WKU came to see Cole Abney and Derrick Thacker, but I am not positive.

Zac Koenenger - Campbell County visited UC. Two weeks ago he blew out his ACL, MCL and Miniscus. Likely will lose interest in any of the schools recruiting him until the see how his recovery goes.

That's pretty good for some P-Burg kids...I hope they go big.

mines being recruited but he,s only a Jr.---and not a play maker just a solid player, but we got Memphis, western KY, Georgetown, Cumberland, Minn, st., Ashland(Ohio) showing a lot of interest. and i think its Adams st. who wanted him to make an official visit lmao. there in Colorado, i think well save the official ones for next year. coaches orders. cant give his name because we want our team to be a sleeper. want to surprise some of the dynasty teams. but i can tell you he only plays defense which is even odder in my opinion to be getting interest From anyone. but I'm happy none the less.

QB from Williamsburg is supposedly being looked at by D1 schools. He is good.

Casey Gambrel and Chad Merida are both propects at Louisville from KC.

Wow. I'm glad to see the Prestonsburg boys getting some recognition for their excellent play thus far. I say Michael Burchett has the best shot at making it a D1 college as of right now though.

Anyone have any stats for those three P'burg players?

Also, I heard about the visits to Tennessee that Raines took. He may indeed make it, I wish him the best of luck.

Junior Lamar Dawson at Boyle County will be attending a game at Notre Dame later this month as a guest. Lamar is a multi-threat at WR, RB, and LB. Great player and student and is playing great for BC this season.

KyGurl · 10-01-2009, 11:50 PM

Good luck to all !!!

M-SPENCE · 10-02-2009, 08:55 AM

Lamar is a gifted athlete. Nice size and speed. I know MacShara is the "go to guy" but I think Boyle should get Lamar a little more involved in the offense. He catches a pass now and then and carries the ball a couple times a game but that's about it. He threw the TD pass from the HB position earlier this season against Johnson Central. We'll see that again at some point I suspect. He's a beast on the defensive side of the ball.
