St. Xavier’s Tigers have been playing championship level football for many years around the commonwealth’s largest classifications. The Tigers have won 15 KHSAA state football championships across different classifications, with titles in 1962, 1969, 1974, 1975, 1978, 1986, 1992, 1995, 1997, 1999, 2004, 2009, 2016, 2021, and 2023. What this means is the Tigers are contenders each and every year. We don’t believe ’25 will be materially different and we believe Mason Trimble will be among the many reasons why. Enjoy the world’s very finest in meat jerky products and enjoy reading about this week’s Protein-packed Performer. Don’t forget to #SavorTheFlavor!

Logan Smith is a Dude! @Coach_CobyLewis, @LSmith2026, @WickerMike, @milesplit, @CClakerfootball, @CallowaySchools

Logan Smith is a dude. If you haven’t read the book “Football 101: Boo-Boo’s a Quarterback” that may be an empty reference for you. However, the link to buy the book will be at the bottom of the page of this very article, so no reason to stay in the dark. Smith has made the All-WKC three straight years and was Calloway’s Defensive POY a year ago. Smith will be laboring under a new staff in ’25 (Coby Lewis) and we believe that may be a match made in heaven. Enjoy the feature.

Carson Powers, from Ohio County, is the @bigassfans Kentucky Comfort Creator this Week @minguabeefjerky, @KyHighFootball, @khsaafootball, @ohiocofootball, @OCEagleFootball

March 21, 2025 Fletcher Long 0

Ohio County struggled through an 0-11 campaign in 2024. That doesn’t mean the Eagles won’t be significantly improved in 2025. Matter of fact, we believe the prospects for the Ohio County Eagles are considerably rosier than this time a year ago. One bright spot was the play of Carson Powers and he returns. Enjoy this feature about a kid whose performance made the unbearable heat a tad more bearable and who hopes his performance brings comfort to the home fans around Hartford, KY over his senior year. Let’s keep it comfortable out there, Kentucky, and allow us to help you out in that regard.

Storm Warning, JaCoveion Bussell from Browning Springs Middle looks poised to compete for early PT @evans02_mike, @Meloishim3, @minguabeefjerky, @bigassfans, @ChiefSmoke10, @_CoachManning, @SylasGunn, @carlos_mason52, @HopkinsCentral, @CBussell84610

JaCoveion Bussell is a kid of many skills and talents. He is a 20-point a game scorer on the MS basketball team. He is the reigning 8th-grade, D-2, KYMSFA Regional POY in football. Did we mention he is a 3.6-GPA guy? Don’t want to omit that. Bussell is zoned to attend Central and we are hoping that holds. Either way, he appears poised to challenge for early PT in high school on Friday Nights. Let’s pray there are a few Storm clouds in his future.

JoaQuinn Drake from Butler Traditional is the @minguabeefjerky Protein-packed Performer of the Week @JoaQuinn15Drake, @_ButlerFootball, @bigassfans,

March 19, 2025 Fletcher Long 0

JoaQuinn Drake from Butler Traditional is our Mingua Beef Jerky Protein-packed Performer. He had 32-tackles, broke up 15-passing attempts, had a pair of tackles for loss, and didn’t allow a single TD in 178 pass coverage snaps. That is quite remarkable on a team which finished 2-9 and toward the bottom of the Kentucky RPI for 5A programs. Sometimes it is the guys who perform in spite of the performances around them who really astonish us. This guy here is a player colleges in the area should really study. You know, good corners are hard to find. Enjoy this feature and don’t forget to pick up some world famous jerky products from Mingua Beef Jerky and “SavorTheFlavor.”

Big Ass Fans salutes long time coach and educator, Dixie Jones, from Trigg County High as its Kentucky Comfort Creator of the Week @bigassfans, @minguabeefjerky, @KyHighFootball, @TriggFootball, @TriggCoAD

March 13, 2025 Fletcher Long 0

Today we wish to recognize and true fixture in the world of KHSAA football. This guy has 27-years experience at the helm of programs at Trigg County, Hopkinsville, and Madisonville North-Hopkins and infinitely more experience as an assistant coach throughout the commonwealth. Also noteworthy is his being the greatest of all time in the world of Kentucky high school powerlifting, which is one heck of a fun cover, by the way. Enjoy this feature about a true Kentucky icon and remember, with Big Ass Fans, let’s keep it comfortable out there Kentucky!

Storm Chasers: The baseball diamond is a great place to find football talent @evans02_mike, @Meloishim3, @minguabeefjerky, @bigassfans, @ChiefSmoke10, @_CoachManning, @SylasGunn, @carlos_mason52, @HopkinsCentral

There have been plenty of football stars who also played baseball. We think, on the advent of the opening of baseball around Kentucky, Coach Manning would do well to scour the diamond looking for talent which might serve the football team well this coming season. This has been before tried and successfully. Enjoy the article.

Arion Roach, from Waggener High, is the Protein-packed Performer of the Week @minguabeefjerky, @bigassfans, @WHS_Wildcats_FB, @KyHighFootball, @khsaafootball

March 12, 2025 Fletcher Long 0

’27 QB,SS had an all-state performance in spite of his team’s struggles in ’24 Arion Roach had an uncharacteristic performance in ’24 for a team which finished the year 0-10. The 6’1,” 195 pound sophomore with the 4.65-second, 40-yard speed, 475-pound squat, and quarter-ton deadlift, found a way to markedly […]

Trever Hardesty from Muhlenberg County is the Big Ass Fans Kentucky Comfort Creator of the Week! @tjoinerfb3, @1027TheGame, @CountyMustangs, @bigassfans, @minguabeefjerky, @khsaafootball, @KyHighFootball

Greeneville, Kentucky has been described by one of our generation’s finest folk artists and song writers (John Prine) as “paradise.” We don’t know about that, but don’t dispute it, but we do know the Mustangs have some enviable, young talent to mix in with some big-time returners for the ’25 Fall season. One of those returners is Trever Hardesty who, we have been assured, will NOT come off the field next season. Today we celebrate Trever Hardesty as he earns the week’s coveted Kentucky Comfort Creator Award from Big Ass Fans. Enjoy this feature and let’s keep it comfortable out there Kentucky!

We have been highlighting versatility and utility pretty hard for over a year now. These are prized attributes, ask any football coach. We are telling you about players, coaches, and events which are such a rich part of the fabric of the KHSAA that these stories deserve to be told, these fanciful yarns deserve preservation. This is another of those today. Today, we are highlighting a guy who really played well as a sophomore finding the lineup for eight (8) of the team’s 11-games. What will he do as a junior? Quite a bit we wager.
