will have an opportunity to beat Tennessee for the first time. The Future Stars Game will be an exclamation point on a memorable middle school career for Shelton. He is coming off an eighth-grade season where he was QB1 for East Hardin Middle School and helped lead the Lions to the Heartland Conference Championship Game. Prior to this past season, the multi-sport athlete was named East Hardin’s Middle School MVP as a seventh-grader. There isn’t a tremendous amount of film out there on Shelton, besides the previously mentioned championship game–of which, I watched every offensive snap. While the 5-foot-10, 175-pounder didn’t have his best/most impactful game that day, he seemed to operate the Pistol Formation like a seasoned vet. The ability to take snaps under center and in the shotgun is something that caught my eye, because as simple as it may seem, it’s becoming a lost art. He’ll be off to Central Hardin for high school.
