We are very pleased to welcome Lasaters Coffee & Tea to our growing family of advertisers. The Kelley family has a very long history in the local football industry and several of the Kelleys have had their numbers retired owing to their familial history of playing excellence. Football has been very good to their family and they look for ways to give back to this very special community. Lasaters is a place one goes to get caffeinated and motivated and couldn’t we all use a bit more of that invigoration in our daily routines. Get by one (1) of our four (4) Christian County, Kentucky locations and enjoy the roasted flavor of a hot cup of warmth and love.

Nehemiah Bailey, from the Christian County Tigers, is the Bank of Cadiz & Trust Company Superior Performance, Exceptional Quality Feature of the Week @KatherineL58069, @aidenjesse19, @tremayneclay8, @LasatersCoffee, @minguabeefjerky, @bigassfans, @khsaafootball, @KyHighFootball, @davaree_gude6, @TriggFootball, @CountyColonels, @HopHighTigers, @murrayFB

Nehemiah Bailey got more PT than any other freshman on the last Hoptown roster. The two Christian County schools will combine in the Fall of ’26 and form one ball club. That team will have loads of talent. That team should be right formidable as a 6A, first district team. Who will quarterback this team? Last year’s starter at Hoptown is returning and Jasiah McCarley threw for a little over 2,000 yards and 20-TDs a year ago. McCarley will be a junior in ’26 and has an advantage in production and playing time. However, Bailey is 6’3,” 195-pounds and he sure passes the “eye test.” Today we feature Bailey and discuss his prospects unseating the incumbent QB-1. Enjoy this feature brought to you by your friends and neighbors at the Bank of Cadiz & Trust Company with branches in Trigg, Christian, and Calloway counties.

Logan Seales, P/K, is a real weapon for Landis’s St. Xavier Team @CoachLandis22, @Prokickercom, @loganmseales, @bigassfans, @khsaafootball, @KyHighFootball, @eCampusdotcom

February 21, 2026 Fletcher Long 0

St. Xavier doesn’t skimp on any of football’s three phases. You will find that is true of most of your “Big Time,” “Big Boy,” KHSAA football programs. That certainly explains Logan Seales. Seales is a 6’4,” 182-lbs. kicker/punter who converted 100% of his PATs (15 for 15) a year ago, was seven for 11 on FGs, and sent 88% of his kickoffs into or through the end zone for a touchback (52 of 59). That is called having a lithe leg. Logan is a soccer star at St. Xavier in addition to football and also plays volleyball. He is a multi-faceted talent who makes a difference on a football team not always noticed by the casual fan. We are a long way from either casual or just a fan of KHSAA football. Enjoy the feature.

Lane Brock, from Franklin County High, is our Big Ass Fans Kentucky Comfort Creator Weekly Feature @Lane2Brock, @FCFlyerFootball, @DennyDledford, @Teagan_Crowdus, @khsaafootball, @KyHighFootball, @bigassfans, @eCampusdotcom

Lane Brock was a guy we could have put on the Big Ass Fans, Large School All-State Football team as easily as we missed him. Brock plays for one of 4A’s premier programs and one of the KHSAA’s best head football coaches (Eddie James). This is a kid who is a star right now, coming out as a freshman and making close to 100-tackles. When he learns to play more “down hill” there is no telling to how great he may end up being. It is hard to tell for sure about young guys but this guy here is a next level talent and we don’t mind going on the record with that RIGHT NOW! Enjoy the feature.

Can Peyton Duckwall seize the reigns and lead his Chargers back to glory? @QBPeytonDuck, @KHSAAFootball, @KyHighFootball, @bigassfans, @eCampusdotcom, @BECoachKendrick

February 19, 2026 Fletcher Long 0

Among the harder things to forecast is which freshmen and sophomores across the commonwealth look poised to come on the varsity roster and replace some of the huge talents crossing the graduation stage the prior spring. Let’s face it, some of these guys are just dark hard to replace. Bullitt East is graduating its starting QB, Cole Cornell. Who will step into those shoes for the 6A, District 4, seven (7) game winners? Will it be junior, Garrett Stickdorn, sophomore, Jack Pope, or freshman, Peyton Duckwall? At the end of the day, any guess we could make would be speculative. That won’t stop us from guessing. We are in the speculation business. Enjoy a look at a young player who has plenty of skills and tools to be “the guy” when the first snap comes around in the Fall of 2026.

Jayon Bass, from the Christian County Tigers, is our Lasaters Coffee & Tea Wake Up and Smell the Coffee feature of the week @jayonbass2028, @HopHighTigers, @LasatersCoffee, @The_CoachLo, @County_TigerFB, @khsaafootball, @KyHighFootball, @bigassfans, @eCampusdotcom

Jayon Bass has a frame to die for at 6’3,” 170-pounds. As an 11-pts. a game scorer averaging 6.4 rebounds a night, football isn’t the only game Bass can play. Bass can play anything because he is that guy, he is that type athlete. Bass was a star for his Tiger team a season ago who played sparingly on offense but was among the team’s very best defenders. Will he pull two-way duty when the rosters merge? I suppose we shall see. Congratulations to Jayon Bass for being our ‘Wake Up and Smell the Coffee (or Tea)’ Player of the Week from Lasaters Coffee & Tea where you are more than served, you are loved!

Gage Chapman (’27) is our Bank of Cadiz feature of the Week @KatherineL58069, @Chapman42071, @MurrayQBClub, @LasatersCoffee, @eCampusdotcom, @bigassfans, @khsaafootball, @KyHighFootball, @Ale8One, @CountyColonels, @HopHighTigers, @murrayFB

We continue on with our offseason coverage not really discussing players of the week so much as discussing featured players and prospects. Gage Chapman is simply among the best multi-phase football talents in the Kentucky-wide, KHSAA football game today at any level. Gage came up from middle school among the commonwealth’s most talented players and has done nothing but confirm we were all right about him from the beginning. Chapman is only going to improve over his senior season, particularly on offense where he should get many more opportunities. Chapman is the kind of kid coaches want to coach and, in the end, that may be the finest compliment which can be paid to him (or any other kid). Enjoy the feature.

The real difference between big time Kentucky football programs and just programs, particularly in football, are “The Bigs.” I was talking with a newly hired, 6A head football coach and I told him, no matter how many flashy skills you can muster the real difference in big-timers versus the imposters reside along the lines of scrimmage. Your Boyle Counties, your Covington Catholics, your Lexington Catholics, they seem able to develop and deploy quality linemen up and down the roster. Landon Robinson is a great example. This kid missed five (5) games of action owing to breaking his nose a season ago but was in the starting lineup when available. This guy has all the tools to be a really high priority target for college programs searching for quality linemen which its pretty much every, single year. Enjoy the feature and let’s keep it comfortable out there, Kentucky!
