Linkon Cure proudly wears the label of a small-town hero. Growing up in Goodland, Kansas – a town in northwestern Kansas with only 4,500 people – Cure did it all. He played football, basketball and even ran the 300-meters and 110-meter hurdles for the track team. He also supports his community as a youth basketball coach. "I could be one of those guys that's a one-sport athlete, but I love giving back to my community and participating in everything," Cure said. "It definitely means a lot to me to do those other two sports. ... I can definitely tell who's one-sport athletes and who's multiple-sport athletes. They just move differently. It helps a lot." That versatility has helped him develop on the football field for sure, his high school coach said. "We know he's going to end up playing on the offensive side of the ball but is he going to be a true tight end that's attached all the time? Is he going to be a tight end, an H-back, a true wideout at times?" Goodland coach Jordan Moshier said. "His versatility is very exciting not only for us, but for future potential teams. I think it just allows him to be able to be utilized not only earlier than maybe some others, but I think more often as well."

Linkon Cure's frame, multi-sport background and athleticism as a pass-catcher remind us of Sam LaPorta. We also see some similarities between Cure's elite athleticism and what we saw from Brock Bowers out of high school.
