And more "Ah, footbah" addenda: On the bizarre, early ending to Madisonville-North Hopkins' loss to Christian County ... J.J. Jude's big Saturday night against Heath moved him to 20th on the state's all-time rushing list ... Tweeted Larry Vaught from Friday night's Highlands win in Danville: "NFL analyst Cris Collinsworth at Boyle Co. raving about UK QB commit Patrick Towles of Highlands. Best high school player he has seen ever." Tweeted Towles later that night: "1-0. Beat Colonels in two weeks." ... Middlesboro's 1-0 for the first time in seven years. ... Radcliff John Hardin, meanwhile, is 1-0 for the 23rd straight season, despite what the haters had said. ... Renewal of a traditional rivalry pits first-year coaches, and Fort Knox comes out the surprise winner. ... Wow! "So we go to double overtime. Madison gets the ball first. Stocker can't find a receiver and takes it in himself. They could not convert on a two-point converison. It's 34-28. Last chance for Letcher, facing a 4th and goal from the 35-yard line: Johnson just throws up a prayer. The ball is tipped, and Keaston Hall reels it in! Tie ball game. That sets up Sidney Fields, who did not make a kick all night. Finally boots one through!" Hooray for Letcher County Central's left-footed, straight-on kicker! Hooray for WYMT 57, "Mountain News!" Hooray for Roy Kidd! Hooray for football!
And now a few words from the senior center on Heath's 1986 Class A state-champion football team, about McCracken County's ACT scores.
The Kentucky desk is completely bummed it missed DeAndre Liggins's Madisonville tour stop. The staff van is filthy with cicada and opossum goo after the trip to Paducah Friday night.
I imagine there was a whole bunch of Cave City history recalled Saturday.
Here's a recollection of some from Sulphur Well.
This just in from the routes desk ...
"My job, as I see it, is to provide those who invest in WKU athletics (financially, emotionally or otherwise) with every piece of news I could possibly get my hands on. Hopefully, I succeeded in doing that."
"Jim Nantz with the final line: 'Kentucky is the king of college basketball.'"
