2025 Rankings Update 3.0: Stock Rising ATH

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>As we get deeper into the 2024 high school football off-season, another round of rankings updates have started to come out for the state of Kentucky. In the rankings update for the class of 2025, there was a lot of movement in a very talent-rich class. With that being said, I wanted to take a look at some of the risers in the class that caught my attention after looking back at the rankings update. After covering the offensive and defensive sides of the ball, here are some notable stock risers in the class of 2025 in the state of Kentucky that make an impact at multiple positions. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["735549"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"[player_tooltip player_id='735549' first='Trey' last='Cotton'] is a player that has been on our radar for a while now and continued to stand out this past season. On defense, Cotton lines up at safety where he is very reliable in pass coverage. He does a great job of reading the quarterback and breaking on the ball with perfect timing to make a play. Cotton finished this past season with one interception and multiple pass breakups in eight games. He has also shown the ability to fill the lane to stop the run, finishing this past season with 42 tackles and three tackles for loss. Trey also played a key role on offense this past season, catching 15 passes for 226 yards and a touchdown. Cotton currently holds offers from Eastern Kentucky, Lindenwood, Austin Peay, Southeast Missouri State, Eastern Illinois, and UT Martin, and I expect more to come his way as he is a Division I caliber prospect.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["1252779"],"_player_evaluations_1_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"[player_tooltip player_id='1252779' first='Kemonte' last='Braxton'] is a player that jumped into our rankings following a strong junior year.
