Seneca forward Brandon Trotter will visit UPIKE on October 12th. Trotter also has offers from Kentucky State, who is also trying to get him to visit, and Union College.

2014 Augusta Guard Brent Bach has interest from Eastern Kentucky, Xavier, Arkansas State and Coastal Carolina. He also recently picked up an offer from Kentucky Wesleyan College. Bach is one of the top scorers in the state and is preparing for what could be a very big senior year.

Post on the front page about Kevin Kirby. He heard from WKU and St. Catharine early in the Summer. What do you all think about his game?

Not only was 2015 Bryan Station WR Marcus Floyd recently featured by Rivals.com National Analyst Woody Wommack but now two schools are trying to make early impressions and get him on their campuses.

Thursday Floyd was contacted by Purdue and they expressed interest in getting him to their campus. Notre Dame took it a step further, actually inviting Floyd to a game. The Fighting Irish would like him to come to Dallas of their game Oct. 5th against Arizona State.

Floyd said it is not likely that he will attend the game instead he will reschedule for something a little closer to home.

Kentuckypreps.com will keep you updated on Floyd's recruitment throughout the process.

Alex's Recruiting Notebook[/B] again starts on the hardwood.


David Sloan[/B] (Taylor Co.) 2017 PG -- Butler was in house to look at Sloan and his teammate Quentin Goodin this week. They were impressed and invited him and Goodin to take a look at their campus.


Jackson Davis[/B] (Lafayette) 2014 PF -- According to Scott Anderson, Davis had an in-home visit from South Carolina and they could be close to offering him.


Ellis Cain[/B] (Male) 2015 RB -- Cain received 12 letters from the Indiana Hoosiers on Tuesday. After visiting with them this weekend it's safe to say they are making a push without offering yet.


Emmitt Smith[/B] (Warren Central) 2015 ILB -- Smith has plans to take an unofficial visit to Indiana October 5th via his Twitter page.

Joesph Hawkins (Franklin-Simpson) 2014 DE -- Hawkins has been receiving hand-written letters throughout this week from EKU and is meeting with Defensive Graduate Assistant Chris Cunningham after school on Wednesday.

Casey Dionne[/B] (Madison Southern) 2014 DB -- Over the weekend Dionne took a trip to West Point and visited with Army. While there he met with the staff and got to know the team as well as their facilities. He will visit with them again in either November or December. Georgetown (Ky.) is now awaiting a visit from Dionne as are Middle Tennessee and Indiana State.

Alex's Recruiting Notebook features a basketball player to open up.

Bryce Byrd (Eastern) 2014 PG -- Byrd took an unofficial visit to Bellarmine over the weekend and met with the coaching staff.

Ellis Cain (Male) 2015 RB -- Cain visited Indiana over the weekend and is going to watch Vanderbilt take on Georgia Oct. 19th. Cain is still contemplating visits to Cincinnati and Purdue.

Nathan Roush (DeSales) 2014 QB -- Roush will be attending this weekend's game at WKU but as a guest of the visiting team, Navy. The quarterback of the undefeated DeSales Colts is also being recruited by the Hilltoppers and his father Jim tells Kentuckypreps.com his son could speak with offensive coordinator Jeff Brohm, as the two are relatives. However, he will surely meet with coaches from Navy after the game.

Mike Nero (Manual) 2015 RB -- Nero is receiving letters from WKU, Purdue, Louisville, Kentucky, Indiana and Cincinnati. After coming off a 248-yard performance the night before against Ballard, he checked out Indiana Saturday. Lastly, he will visit Cincinnati next but no date is set for that trip.

Elijah Sindelar (Caldwell Co.) 2015 QB -- Neal Brown the offensive coordinator at Kentucky was on campus at Caldwell Co. for their game against Fort Campbell to watch Sindelar. The game was ultimately cancelled due to the threat of bad weather and replayed the following day. Coach Brown decided not to stick around. Sindelar already has an offer from the Wildcats along with Toledo and WKU.

Matt Elam (John Hardin) 2014 four-star DT -- Elam will once again be in Lexington on a Saturday, this time he will watch Kentucky in action against the Florida Gators.

Wright State has been showing 2016 Bullitt East Guard Tyler Sharpe very strong interest as of late. Sharpe is also hearing from Eastern Kentucky and Tennessee Tech.

What are your thoughts on Sharpe's game?

McCarley isn't hearing from any schools at this point. But he did give the best quote of any Doss player. When asked what he'll need to do to help his team, "Anything they want me to do, I'll do whatever. As long as we win, it don't matter, I don't care, I'll do whatever."

Video

Tay Weaver is hearing from IUPUI, Morehead State, St. Francis, Tennessee Tech and Bellarmine. Morehead State and Bellarmine both were at Doss today to see Weaver.

Video

Gray has gotten a little interest from Marshall and Coastal Carolina.

Video

Daelyn has heard from Albion College and St. Francis College.

Caught up with Montrell earlier this week he has offers from Kentucky Wesleyan, Kentucky State, Georgetown and St. Catharine.

Seneca's Martez Harris is one of the top players in the 7th Region. Now we know where the 6-foot-1 guard will play in college.

On Tuesday, Harris announced he would be taking his game to Tennessee-Martin. Harris, who averaged double figures last season for the Redhawks, chose Skyhawks over Morehead State and Western Kentucky.

Harris is one of several talented players at Seneca. The Redhawks also feature Division I prospects Kevin Shaw and Walter Alexander. Seneca is one of the top teams in a very deep 7th Region.

Jordan Aumiller from Boyle - just how good is he?

We thought he was the best prospect at Louisville's camp earlier this month, but we are surprised he doesn't have more offers. He's got great size and decent athleticism, but the majors haven't offered yet.

Speaking of offers, he just picked up his first one from Marshall.
