We’ve had a rash of QB’s hit the national combine circuit and come away with faculty singing their praises. Today we award this to a McCracken County Mustang who, if you are tabulating Kentucky’s best among ’23 dual threat QBs, you might get out your pen and jot down this name. Enjoy this feature and join us again next week as this gets awarded to another worthy recipient.

Max Gibbs is a 10th-grade, rising Junior, dual-threat QB who has hit the national circuit and has really impressed. He attended the most recent QB Hit List combine and has come away with both a national ranking at his position and a star-rating. We would call that a pretty good week at Mingua Beef Jerky and we are sure you would readily agree. Enjoy this look at this week’s “Protein-packed Performer of the Week” and join us next week as we recognize another worthy recipient. HB.

We have written about this prospect before today. We have talked about the importance of the offseason ad nauseam. Max Gibbs is a 2023 QB in Kentucky surging up the list of players in the commonwealth at his position. That is what happens when you attend the QB Hit List national combine and come away a nationally ranked prospect. Enjoy the article. HB.

Coach Jay has slipped undetected into the Derby City once moore (pun intended) and picked off another prospect who figures to be in the mix from day one once he hits campus. Travon Moore is a Blue-Grey All-American and someone who will greatly benefit from these new surroundings and running behind a line of scrimmage like the one Hanover boasts. Here’s the thing, he could be a LBer too. Enjoy the article. HB Lyon.

This week’s “Revolutionary Player of the Week” is a top-flight, 2022 defensive end who helped lead the Purples to the 5A State Title, last season when Bowling Green defeated the always tough bunch from Owensboro Senior High. This feature is brought to you weekly by the folks over at Independence Bank. Go on by and see our friends and thank them, not just for this series, but for the outstanding services and products which have started a revolution in the banking industry.

Local college programs mined the rich vein of in-State talent in filling out recruiting classes. Some killed it out of state too. @minguabeefjerky @PrepSpin @KyHighFootball @1776Bank

We saw numerous programs clean up yesterday on national signing day. We saw some Kentucky programs lure some incredible out of state hauls, and we even saw some programs from neighboring states dip their fishing lures into Kentucky waters and come away with some big time talent. Enjoy the article.

Hayes Preston is an 8th-grader who will hit a high school roster next year and make an immediate impact. He is one of middle school’s definitive players on both sides of the football and one of his class’s most decorated players. Enjoy this look at this week’s “Protein-packed Performer of the Week.” HB.

@HanoverFTBL and @Coach_Jay53 dip into Louisville, Kentucky and @TrinityHSFB to land one of the top cover-corners in @KyHighFootball. @minguabeefjerky @PrepSpin @1776Bank

There just hasn’t been a better corner in Kentucky high school football over the previous three seasons in the ’21 class than Trinity’s Chris Forehand, Jr. Now he will take his talents north to Hanover College where you would have to expect him to challenge for starter reps immediately. Think is…he may not be alone…(we love this time of year around here). HB
