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.

Friday Night Fletch.

Elijah Little from Prestonsburg, Kentucky plays for Floyd Central. The Jaguars have been limping around 2A, district seven of late but Trevor Hoskins and company are looking to get that turned around in ’26. It is believe Little can advance that agenda substantially. Little is 6’0,” 200-pounds and completed some passes, averaged around six-yards a carry, was among the team’s leading receivers, was the 6th-leading scorer, was the leading tackler, and was tied for the lead in TFLs. That is a ton of production out of different slots occupied by just the one player. Little is thick, moves well, is aggressive, and physical. Your favorite college program may be searching for someone like that. We know where one may be found. If you read this article, you will also be armed with said knowledge. Enjoy the feature.

Last season we thought we were going to have to start calling them the “Heartbreak Wildcats” if things didn’t start trending differently. Trigg County dropped consecutive, one-point defeats to the toughest of competition under very strange and almost lightening-striking-ish type situations. Still, the play the team was getting from its then-sophomore/rising junior QB was extraordinary. Cade Scott was and still is a superlatively good, three sport, varsity athlete who excels at FB (QB), basketball (SG), and baseball (OF/LHP). He completed nearly 75% of his passing attempts and consistently put the offense in situations where it should and, often did, thrive. Enjoy this feature on this wonderfully gifted and talented young football star.

Drew Anderson from Somerset High the best corner in @khsaafootball’s ’29 graduating class. Period! @DrewAnderson118, @BJNFBALL, @ClayClevenger, @KyHighFootball, @khsaafootball, @bigassfans, @eCampusdotcom

February 28, 2026 Fletcher Long 0

Drew Anderson is among the best ’29’s in the commonwealth of Kentucky. Matter of fact, Prep RedZone has the 5’9,” 170-pounder as the top corner in his class and the 10th highest regarded prospect overall. These guys are a nationally read and recognized as evaluators of football playing talent. This is an opinion which matters, unlike the scads and scores of other opinions you see proffered from individuals not in the business but pretending to be. Our opinion also matters. We believe Drew Anderson is easily among the better corners in his class and has every right to be considered top in his graduating class at that post. To know whether a prospect is or isn’t among the commonwealth’s best, one must first know what else is out there. Today, we will demonstrate for you the qualities, skills, and production which makes Anderson among the leading corners in his graduating class throughout the commonwealth of Kentucky. Enjoy the feature, start taking notes now.

Is Elkhorn’s Preston Schaffer the best RB in the @khsaafootball’s ’30 class? @PrestonSch48255, @Aspirationsgym, @JaylenGarnett24,@bigassfans, @KyHighFootball, @ChiefSmoke10, @FCFlyerFootball, @FLYERATHLETICS

Every year there is plenty of talk about some rising 9th grade being the best player at his position entering the high school game. Most of that talk is speculative and said by people who really don’t have a clue about football played outside their respective counties. We are an entirely different matter as we have reported on and followed the KYMSFA for over a decade. When we say an 8th grader, rising 9th grader, is special and will be hard to sit when the season arrives, you should listen to us. We know about what we are talking. Preston Schaffer is such a kid and such a RB. Eddie James is slobbering to get this kid in a uniform and on a playing field. Enjoy the feature.

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

February 20, 2026 Fletcher Long 0

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.
