Month: June 2019

Hosea Knifeley, Butler Traditonal, cuts like a knife (through the OL), but it feels so right (at least for Butler)

June 7, 2019 Henry Lyon 0

People around the Derby City felt slighted this prospect wasn’t in the top spot on the Kentucky 20 best DL, preseason list, published to Bluegrass Rivals yesterday. Whether he should have been can be argued either way. He certainly should have been on the list and he certainly was, coming in at No. 5. Regardless, Knifeley, who’s last name reminds us of one of our favorite lyrics from a song from one of our favorite all-time Rockers, is one whale of a prospect. Enjoy the article.

Here’s Mud[d] in your eye…Class of 2021’s John Mudd

June 6, 2019 Henry Lyon 1

You know the toast, “Here’s mud in your eye” takes on a different connotation completely when you add a “d” to the end of “mud” and capitalize the “M.” Big John Mudd, ranked the 20th best OL in all of Kentucky and 9th best in the Class of 2021, gets in a lot of eyes and it is none too pleasant we hear. This is a guy whose move to the interior OL could net him tremendous benefit owing to his present frame. However, his present frame may not be where he frames out ultimately. Enjoy this article about a kid who has worked himself into a major college prospect.

June 5, 2019 Henry Lyon 0

KPGFootball are big fans of Coach Darell Keith. We have been out watching the Todd County Rebels practice the past few days and we are becoming big fans of their prospects going forward. Keith is particularly good at coming up with nicknames and his nickname for Justin Waldrop, The Big Show, is a dandy. Enjoy the article about an up and coming team in the area.

Class of 2021’s Jager Burton (@jager_burton), Frederick Douglass

June 5, 2019 Henry Lyon 0

BoyleCo has published a list on Bluegrass Rivals detailing whom he believes to be the 30 best OL in Kentucky High School football. He has taken some heat for it. People, or outlets, who compose lists always take heat. However, this guy has logged 100s of hours on this list, compiling it over the last year. He did a fabulous job. Our list would look very similar. Some may have been in different slots, like Jager Burton (who we would have had higher), today’s feature. However, the 30 he listed would have been on our list too. Enjoy the article.

If you are a parent, and your son is attending either prospect camps or even instructional camps, you can’t afford to not go over this with him. His very future may well depend on it. These are the KPGFootball “Do’s and Don’t’s” of prospect football camp. Read this, it is critically important.

June 3, 2019 Henry Lyon 0

We were thrilled to hear yesterday from the Adkins family Jonah has been added to the Team Kentucky Future Stars-7th active roster for the June 15 show-down with Tennessee. Jonah, in an effort to keep himself physically ready, had been working all along in the event this opportunity should present. Yep, that is the Jonah Adkins we know. That is why he will thrive both in the game, June 15th, and thereafter. Enjoy this article about one of the hardest working and talented members of Kentucky’s 2024-class of football players.

June 2, 2019 Henry Lyon 0

Isaac Dixon has made both our freshman and sophomore All-State football teams. Today, KPGFootball predicts the football staff at WKU is about to find out exactly why. The former Chapmanville, West Virginian turned Pike County, Kentuckian not only has a ton of class but he is the class of Kentucky’s 2021 class of football prospects. Enjoy the article about one of KPGFootball’s favorites Kentucky-wide.

Cam Jordan, Trigg County, Class of 2020, rising to the top…We called it first!

June 1, 2019 Henry Lyon 0

Nothing is more excruciating than someone telling you, “I told you so.” That being said, “we told you so.” We wrote an article about Cam Jordan in September of 2017 which appears to have rung eerily true. Was Fletcher Long an Edgar Cayce worthy clairvoyant? Perhaps. Perhaps, he just knows a ton about football. Anyway, you be the judge and enjoy the article about one of KPGFootball’s favorite Kentucky HS players. HB.

Meric-Dean Stinson, Class of 2019, Henderson County Colonels, is this week’s Independence Bank Revolutionary Player of the Week

June 1, 2019 Fletcher Long 0

We don’t know how the Henderson County Colonels will replace players like this week’s recipient, Meric-Dean Stinson. It is not everyday a team is fortunate enough to have a guy with Stinson’s heart and fight in the line-up. Make no mistake, Stinson was as responsible for the Colonels’s turn-around in 2018 as any other player on the team. No one works harder than Meric-Dean Stinson and efforts like his are worthy of recognition and celebration. That is exactly why he is being recognized this week by Kentucky’s fastest growing (and hardest working) financial institution, Independence Bank. Join us next week as we award this to another worthy football player.

Class of 2020’s Kazmir Hansford from Clarksville NW High School is this weeks, Meeks and Meeks’ Montgomery County Player of the week…

June 1, 2019 Fletcher Long 0

For NorthWest High School in Clarksville, Tennessee to reach its full potential it will need all hands on deck in 2019. One of the most important hands will be those of Kazmir Hansford who will be entering his senior season. Hansford has played RB/WR/ and even a little QB. One never knows exactly where he will show up in a Viking lineup, just that he better show up and show out. Join us next week as we crown a new recipient.
