Me and spud talked about this weeks ago, and it got a good reception. So nows the time. We have to nominate someone for our “MR. FOOTBALL”. We can use this thread to make nominations and why they should be and spud or someone can make a poll. I don’t want this to turn into a yelling match again please! If you think someone should get it, post it, and why. We don’t have to call others out for their opinions. Debate it! That’s fine! Present the facts! That’s fine! But fighting over this takes the joy out of it all. Present your case.......

Here’s my 4 and it hasn’t changed all that much.

Mike Mayer- Cov cath- (6”5 235 lb TE) as a 4 star he is ranked #1 in the state by rivals. #3 for his position in the nation and 37th overall. That alone, with all the offers from top P5 schools should tell the story, but the Notre dame signee is a man among children on the field. He’s the only one I’ve seen for a skill position guy that “looks the part” to be able to play on sundays. He’s a title winner and almost unstoppable on the field of play. I’m having trouble loading his final stats, but to me those aren’t as important as his impact on the field. He could be the next Jacob tamme from ky, maybe better.......

Beau Allen- Lex cath- (6”2 200lb pro style QB)this 4 star is ranked #3 in the state and 13th overall for his position, the UK commit is amazing to watch. To say he’s a field general is an understatement. His ability to take control of a game is almost unmatched. His play making ability is something to see, he’s great at getting nothing and using his vision to turn it into a big play. His stats aren’t up as high as some others, but he’s done more with less to me.

Reece Smith- Boyle co.- (5”11 175 lb WR) the 3 star WVU commit is ranked 7th in the state by rivals and #66 overall for his pos., is another one who is just amazing to watch. The sheer talent this man possesses is truly a gift from god. The speed, quickness, and hands, are above any WR in the state this year. Every time he lines up he is going to be better than the man he faced, or multiple men on some occasions. The stats of this kid is remarkable and well deserved. He “big play” ability is 2nd to none and full of top 10 highlights. Anyone who has ever seen him has came away blown by his game.

Braedon Sloan- Wayne county- (6ft 185lb RB) I couldn’t find any rivals info on the young man, yet.... I did find some info for the youngest man on this list. NCAA.org lists his 40 at 4.5, 285 bench, and 385 squat. Seeing him in person that 4.5 looks a little slow. I think he could keep up with anyone in the state on the field. And he’s got another year to go! I’ll be honest he doesn’t deserve it over the ones above him, but I had to mention him. You don’t stop Sloan, you just hope to slow him down. He has some of the best vision for a RB I’ve seen in a long time. Was the best one I’ve seen or watched all year regardless of class. His strength and speed combo make solo tackling almost impossible against him. Once he sees a gap he’s gone. The kid will be a tough and special player next year.

Well there’s my top 3 nominees and an honorable mention I’d guess you’d say. What do you guys think? Who ya got? And most importantly, WHY???
