NSD 2020: John Young

Four-star recruit by 247Sports and Rivals … Rated the No. 14 offensive tackle in the nation by Rivals … Ranked the No. 4 player in Kentucky … Coached by Hunter Cantwell … Bill Greene, an analyst for 247Sports said of Young, ‘He’s more of a physical, beat’em up kind of guy than he is an athletic kind of guy. But you also like the fact, when you watch his film, he finishes blocks. He really plays to the whistle, maybe a little bit past the whistle. He’s nasty, super aggressive. I like the program he plays in. He’s used to winning and expects to win, and knows how to pay the price to win.’ … Helped lead Christian Academy to a 7-5 record in 2019 and an appearance in the Class 3-A District Four final … Named second team All-State by the Associated Press after the 2018 season … Was named first-team All-State by MaxPreps in 2019 … Picked Kentucky over Florida State, Louisville, Auburn, Georgia and others.
