Preston Spurlock, Class of 2021, Leslie County’s hit-man (Featured Photo: Larry Robinson, BSN)

July 3, 2019 Fletcher Long 0

Preston Spurlock is one of our favorite players commonwealth-wide and someone we have selected to our All-State team two straight years. He is someone for whom opposing coaches have to plan to contain. Failure to game-plan him is costly. We call him around the Magazine either the Mountain Hit-Machine, or the Leslie County Hit-Man. Yeah, we’re pretty clever. Enjoy this article which will fully explain the high regard in which we hold this guy who will play on Saturdays should he wish.

July 1, 2019 Henry Lyon 0

KPGFootball was able to catch up and interview our friend, Anthony White, about his plans for the Atherton football program. This upcoming football season will be his first at the Rebel helm. Of course, we know White by his nickname “Nino” like virtually all of the Louisville area and the Team Kentucky fraternity. We also know him to be a winner. There are bright days ahead for this program. Enjoy this article.

Anthony Johns is a bull rumbling at the head of the herd

June 30, 2019 Henry Lyon 0

At KPGFootball we admire the players who kind of have to work for stardom and then do. Anthony Johns has a good frame which appears likely to still be lengthening but his is not the best OL frame we have seen. However, his attention and dedication to strengthening, conditioning, and doing even the little things the right way is among the best we have seen. There aren’t any players in the Class of 2022 which work any harder than this one. Enjoy the article about a young man who so richly deserves anything good which comes his way.

Ethan Phillips, Highland Middle, Class of 2024, a stalwart for his class along the line of scrimmage

We got a note from someone advocating our doing a feature on this particular player. With his having played on two successful and victorious Team Kentucky Future Stars it was easily time to be featuring him. The person sending us the information said “He may not be feature material, but I think he’s a name worth remembering.” Well, we couldn’t disagree with you more about the first part. We absolutely think he’s “feature material.” In fact, here’s his feature right here. Enjoy the article. HB.

Part two of the Class of 2023, Kentucky’s “Freshman Fifteen…”

June 26, 2019 Henry Lyon 0

This is part two of a two part series we are calling the “Freshman Fifteen.” These aren’t necessarily the best fifteen football players or prospects in Kentucky but they are fifteen players we believe most likely to play before the 2019 season is over in the varsity lineup. Some will play because the team has specific need where they are slotted and some will play because they are just that good. We published the first 8 players in this series yesterday and have now finished up with the other seven. Enjoy part two of the two part series we entitled “The Freshman Fifteen.” HB.

This is part one of a two part series we are calling the “Freshman Fifteen.” These aren’t necessarily the best fifteen football players or prospects in Kentucky but they are fifteen players we believe most likely to play before the 2019 season is over in the varsity lineup. Some will play because the team has specific need where they are slotted and some will play because they are just that good. Join us tomorrow as we finish with the final seven but, for now, enjoy this article about the first 8 of the “Freshman Fifteen.”

Tyler Morris (@Morris1D), Lexington Christian Academy, is the best football player in Kentucky’s Class of 2022

June 24, 2019 Henry Lyon 0

We aren’t sure at which position Tyler Morris is the best player in Kentucky’s 2022 graduating class. We are sure he is probably Kentucky’s best player at several of them. We know this, if we were picking an All-Kentucky team of 2022’s to tour around and play other states or commonwealths we would pick him with our first selection. Enjoy this article about an unparalleled football talent from Lexington, Kentucky. He will start getting offers this next offseason. Book it! HB

Jeremiah “J2” Monroe, Class of 2023’s top DB, Proving, once again, what we know at KPGFootball, if the kids name is “Monroe” he can flat-out ball!

June 23, 2019 Henry Lyon 0

First we appreciate our friend, Brendon Miller with the Bluegrass Sports Nation for providing some of the photographs we have been using in our features of the Kentucky Future Stars players. Secondly we would like to tell you any person who claims to be an aficionado of Kentucky middle or high school football and are unfamiliar with the surname “Monroe” may well be selling you a bill of goods. The Monroes can flat out ball, son. Enjoy this article about Jeremiah “J2” Monroe and you would be wise to read it today, while it is free. Tomorrow, you know what happens.

Has RB, Adam “PacMan” Taylor Jr. become Kentucky’s top prospect in the Class of 2025?

June 19, 2019 Henry Lyon 3

We have this strange feeling we will write lots of articles featuring Adam “PacMan” Taylor, Jr. from Louisville before everything is said and done for him in his football career. He was a thrill a minute in Kentucky’s win over Tennessee in the Future Stars Classic and has made himself the early favorite for top player in his graduating class, commonwealth-wide. Enjoy the article free today, or buy it tomorrow.

Did @Southwestern_FB’s Braiden Myers come out of the Kentucky-Tennessee Future Stars Classic 2023’s top-rated offensive center?

June 18, 2019 Henry Lyon 0

There wasn’t much about Kentucky’s offensive performance versus Tennessee in the Future Stars Classic which we didn’t find…offensive, frankly. If there was a bright spot it was the play of Braden Myers from Pulaski County, Kentucky. Myers snap arrived on a pulse beat all afternoon, every single time, exactly where you would want it. He manned the A-gap, a hot bed of activity along any front so well you forgot he was out there and he showed great mobility moving down to the second level to pick up big blocks for Kentucky there. This kid firmly established that the formerly two man race for the class’s top offensive center between Bracken Castle and Matt Alex Ladd is now firmly a three man race and there may be a new leader in the clubhouse. Enjoy the article.
