’26 QB as dangerous as a basketball player as he is under center
Cade Scott is built just like you want to see frames finish at the QB-position. The versatile athlete with the dynamic and multi-faceted athletic skill set is 6’5,” 200-pounds, and is dangerous either on the gridiron or the hard wood. Scott, in ’24, threw for 2,295-yards and 20-TDs against only 9-picks on a 5-6 ball club playing 6A competition. Scott competed 54% of his passing attempts (171/317) and rushed for 357-yards and five TDs on 58-carries. Don’t forget the kid carries a 4.14 GPA and is getting recruited by the likes of Yale. Yessir, this guy seems to have it all, with a big senior year upcoming.

Mingua Beef Jerky uses Enviro-Pac CHU-2000 equipment to cook its meat to USDA required levels for both moist or dry operation. Mingua Beef Jerky wants you to become one of its many satisfied customers by sampling its quality hand sliced, all natural beef jerky. We know you’ll love it and come back for more, again and again.
Ronnie Mingua began experimenting with making beef jerky back in the 1990s. He shared his efforts with neighbors and friends, soon realizing he had come up with something different and superior to all other beef jerkies on the market. From these humble beginnings, Mingua Beef Jerky got its start.
Today, the Mingua Beef Jerky Company still prides itself on using its old-fashioned, all-natural recipes which offer outstanding products to customers across the nation. The recipes are a family tradition, passed down from generation to generation.
Our recipes and our quality ingredients, hand-cut from solid pieces of beef, are never chopped or formed like other brands, making our products superior and one of a kind. That would make our products similar to this week’s Protein-packed Performer, Cade Scott, ’26 quarter-back from Meade County High in Brandenburg, Kentucky.

Brandenburg, KY: We have been contacted by a company out of Texas which manufactures (and has since the early 80s) a piece of equipment which will radically improve a basketball player or team’s three point shooting ability. This company is interested in entering the Kentucky market and would like for us to be an aid for this incursion.
Kentucky is the right place for this type of product marketing. For one, a ton of our in-commonwealth, football talent also plays basketball. This is, after all, Kentucky.
You may count Meade County High’s Cade Scott among the combo football/basketball guys. If you were to ask the ’26 QB, with three D-1 offers already in the bag, and plenty more circling; he might tell you he’s more of a “football guy.” However, at 11-points, 5.5 rebounds, and shooting over 70% at the charity stripe, this dude ain’t no slouch (pardon our grammar) on the hardwood.
Scott is a QB and he has proven quite adept at playing there. Last season, Scott threw for 2,295-yards and 20-TDs while completing 54% of his passing attempts (171/317).
Scott was only picked 9-times. We like to call that efficiency.
Scott threw for 2,295-yards, 20-TDs, and completed nearly 54% of his passing attempts in 11-games in ’24

Scott was a threat on the ground. The junior signal-caller gained 357-yards on 58-carries, five (5) of which he carried over the goal line.
Scott has already been offered by EKU, Georgia State, and Marshall’s Thundering Herd. With a physique and game similar to Eli Sammons out of Greenup County a few years back, it is easy to see Marshall’s attraction.
Scott is 6’5,” and weighs 200-pounds. For those who don’t recall, Sammons was 6’5.5,” and weighed 195-pounds. We believe Sammons is at UPIKE now but initially signed with Marshall and perhaps the Marshall program would like to take another shot at the new guy.
There are other programs additionally circling and the 4.14-GPA is one of the reasons. We have noticed Yale bird-dogging this in-commonwealth QB and picking up a signal caller with his blend of intelligence, arm talent, and frame would be quite the coup for the Ivy-Leaguers.
Till then, it will be quite a sight to see what another tour does for Scott’s impact on the Green Wave. We may be seeing a return to the program’s former glory.
Join us next week as we return to honor another weekly prize winner. Until then, pop some Mingua Beef Jerky in your mouth and savor the quality and flavor which sets it apart from the competition. Remember, our product is superior and one of a kind; just like Meade County’s Cade Scott.
This is Friday Night Fletch reporting for Kentucky Prep Gridiron and reminding you to PLAY THROUGH THE WHISTLE. Don’t forget to SAVOR THE FLAVOR!
