Kris Hughes Kris Hughes 6'0" | 205 lbs | ATH/RB Somerset | 2026 State KY has been on my radar for a while now and ended his high school career on a high note this past season. He served as his team’s starting quarterback but was mainly a threat in the running game, leading the entire state in rushing with 232 carries for 2,081 yards and 37 touchdowns in 13 games. Hughes is an explosive downhill runner who is very tough to bring down once he gets going, showing the ability to lower his shoulder and drive his legs through contact to break tackles without losing stride. Once he hits the second level, he has also shown the burst of speed to simply run away from the defense on long runs. As a passer, Hughes threw for 1,092 yards, 11 touchdowns, and four interceptions as a senior. He also made an impact on defense, recording 37 tackles and two interceptions. Hughes holds multiple offers and I can see him being a true impact player wherever he decides to play at the next level.
