On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by special guest and possibly the most highly recruited high school football player to ever play in Western New York, Canisius High School star Elijah Kimble in a wide spanning conversation recorded live at Imperial Pizza in South Buffalo.Kimble recently won the Connolly Cup, given to Western New York's top high school football player and in doing so became the first player ever from Canisius to win in the 53-year history of the award. He's also the first player from any school ever to be a finalist for the award in each of his first three seasons.His stats at Canisius have been mind blowing, he's ran for 5,325 yards already through three years, the most all-time in Monsignor Martin Association history and he's fourth all-time in Western New York with a still a full season left to play, just 1,234 from the top spot.Kimble isn't just some high school phenom, he' literally the most highly recruited running back to ever come out of Western New York. He's already received north of 35 major D1 offers and recently narrowed his list down to a final 10, a group that includes Ohio State, Michigan, Indian, Miami, Florida, Washington, Kansas and Syracuse.Perhaps most impressively, he's an absolute humble and class act student athlete and young man. Patrick has a thorough discussion about his life, career to this point, goals and much, much more.Be sure to follow Elijah on Twitter X at @ElijahKimble0 to follow updates on his career and life.Big shout-out and thank you once again to Imperial Pizza for being a gracious host and for their excellent wings.
