MURFREESBORO, Tenn. – Middle Tennessee freshman safety Reed Blankenship will feel right at home Friday at WKU in a special Friday night lights edition of the 100 Miles of Hate rivalry.
Before starring in the secondary for the Blue Raiders as a freshman, Blankenship solidified himself as one of the best players to ever play on Friday nights at West Limestone High School in Lester, Alabama, just about two hours from Murfreesboro.
He was named a two-time all-state member in Alabama's Class 4A and Back of the Year in 2016, but it wasn't just for his prowess as a safety, where he's made nine starts in his first year for MT.
