After reading what he said about Bama, Big Dog and Stoops have their work cut out for them. Just hope WL has a huge season so he can fell that way about UK. Anybody know if he's grown up a UK fan?
I won't at Kentucky as long as Mitch almighty has a say. Unless is the roundball team.
You must have missed the NIL money Robinson made for his year, here.
Nick Saban is one year older than was Bear Bryant at his death!
Yeah, doubt Saban's had anywhere near the number of cigarettes/bourbon and branch waters Bear had.
I know the family. I have family that attended Larue County high with him. This guy will be well traveled by the time he finishes his high school career.
Keep seeing that MB is holding KY football back when it comes to NIL. What specifically has happened?
So is this kid's parents getting jobs in Lexington simply so the kid can play football? Or is he staying with someone in Lexington while the family remains back home? LCA is private so where he lives doesn't matter but still I find this aspect curious.
He apparently reclassified due to the Kentucky Bill.
I think they basically gave High Schoolers a Covid year to play too. but why would a player at that level choose an extra year of HS, instead of accellerating getting to College?
It has been common in football to do this. Covid wasn’t needed in “the old days,” when school admins and boards wanted to win at all costs, as did the players.
Definitely makes a huge difference in football. It sure as hell made a difference in basketball too. My junior year, we lost in the regional championship to a team that was all held back a year. So instead of being college freshmen, they were still in high school. Everyone on our team were in the grade we were supposed to be in.
I outweighed you a lot Hack at 24 and was coming off 1st team all shrimp and crab team in lake Charles 🍺
I think KY has an age limit for HS athletes. I know a lot of kids were held back to help them advance athletically, but a lot of them were held back in grade school or very early in their development. I wouldn't want to be a kid held back in HS unless I was changing schools, otherwise, you end up putting them behind your peers and friends who are moving on in grade.
It is that you can't turn 19 before your senior year starts. But a week later is fine. I do not know how they handled that with the virus extension though.
They might be casual UK fans, but they aren't HUGE UK fans or they wouldn't be worried about sending him to a school to win a natty.
Yeah, may not be a fan like Couch for instance. As a kid growing up I wouldn't have even considered any school other than UK if they was offering me scholarship. Fans are on different levels in loyalty.
Gotta get him first Hack. CFB landscape has changed a lot since Couch/JLo days.
