The return of St. Ge at Kentucky State University
FRANKFORT, Kentucky -- Kentucky State’s football team got some good news with quarterback Jules St. Ge’s return.
Now the Thorobreds are looking for more players to join their squad.
St. Ge was the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Conference’s Freshman of the Year two years ago when KSU played in the SIAC championship game.
After sitting out last season, St. Ge is back, along with Paul Campbell and Michael Simpson, who played quarterback last year.
That leaves KSU in good shape at the quarterback position.
“Other than that, we’re very, very thin,” KSU head coach John L. Smith said. “We have to stay healthy. We have about half the kids we had a year ago.
“We didn’t sign a single kid. Our funds were frozen. We have to stay healthy, so we’re adapting at camp.”
Smith and his staff are on the lookout for walk-ons to bolster the roster.
“We’d like to have between 90 and 100 kids so we don’t have to go against each other, that we can have a scout team.”
The Thorobreds have 73 players out now, and Smith expects more once school starts. One returning player is redshirt junior defensive lineman Chris Roberts, a graduate of Franklin County.
