To wrap up our top five linebackers in the class of 2029 in the state of Kentucky, I have Eric Forney Jr. Eric Forney Jr. Eric Forney Jr. 5'10" | 180 lbs | LB Kentucky Country Day | 2029 State KY Eric lines up at inside linebacker where he is at his best against the run. He has a nose for the football, showing the ability to read the play and find the ball carrier quickly. Once he sees where the ball carrier is going, he uses his strength to shed blocks with ease then uses his speed to get to them with a sense of urgency. He is a very good tackle in the open field, finishing his freshman year with 52 tackles and two tackles for loss in 13 games. Forney Jr. also showed the ability to get to the quarterback, recording 3.5 sacks as a freshman. Eric will be a player to keep an eye on moving forward as he continues to grow and develop.
