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.

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.

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.

Friday Night Fletch.

Kolin Baker ready for his shine @KolinB95, @vashawnFB, @BodeDarland, @JahbarriFrost98, @bigassfans, @eCampusdotcom, @khsaafootball, @KyHighFootball

February 14, 2026 Fletcher Long 0

Kolin Baker is largely believed to be among the top-five (5) DLs in Kentucky’s ’28 graduating class. This belief persists in spite of his contributing a scant eight (8) tackles and a single TFL over his 14-games of play his sophomore season. Then again, the kid did see PT in 14-games for Kentucky’s foremost high school football program during a season in which the program won its 3rd consecutive, 6A title and 30th title overall; so, there is that! We have before said a college player will find the field in high school sometime during his sophomore season. This 285-pound wrestler certainly found the field as a sophomore in 14 of the team’s 15 games. What his stats either were or weren’t seems rather trite and mundane compared to the amount of PT he got on the KHSAA’s most talented roster, wouldn’t you agree? Enjoy the feature.

Jaxson Dernocoeur got a taste of what varsity football entails and finds himself hungry for more! @khsaafootball, @KyHighFootball, @bigassfans, @LasatersCoffee, @FC_FALCONS_FB 

February 10, 2026 Fletcher Long 0

Jason Dernocoeur is a guy who has loads of promise and appears prepared to do lots of work to develop into the type player he wants to be. He is built like an interior offensive lineman, wears the number of a guard or center, but will probably have to pull “double duty” through much of his high school career. This young guys has shown he has what it takes to get it done. Congratulations to Jaxson Dernocoeur 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!

Every high school has an all-time football coach. Some of these guys are in the KHSAA Hall of Fame and others of them aren’t well known outside of their territories. Regardless, all of these guys were great and have wonderful attributes which made them the kind of men for whom families, for generations, have entrusted their sons. Hoover Niece, a KHSAA Hall of Famer, was such a coach and we believe Austin Moore is headed in a great direction. Enjoy this look at a kid named for a famous prophet but whose future success doesn’t take a prophet to foresee.

Keshaun Tipton looks to take the next step in his high school progression for his program @khsaafootball, @KyHighFootball, @bigassfans, @LasatersCoffee, @FC_FALCONS_FB 

February 3, 2026 Fletcher Long 0

We are always looking for the next big thing on any high school’s roster. It is no secret the Falcons will have to replace a pair of all-timers and all-staters in Perryman and Dixon. From where will the “next wave” of production come? Well, we have studied the situation and would be very surprised if Mr. Keshaun Tipton didn’t take a huge step forward in his sophomore season. What he did as a freshman is cause for optimism we would submit. Congratulations to Keshaun Tipton 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!
