We thought we would head on over to the Derby City and catch up with one of our favorite RBs on one of our favorite teams. Parker Rudolph (’26) is a RB prospect who has the speed, power, and explosion (twitch) to play free or strong safety at the next level too. He can return kicks, punts, work the slot catching the ball, and use his backend separation speed and spacial quicks to gain a ton of after contact yardage. At Big Ass Fans, we reach out and impact all parts of Kentucky, large or small, wherever we are needed. Parker Rudolph is having a fine season particularly for a 1A RB on an undefeated, contending football team, so we thought we would honor him today. Enjoy this look at Parker Rudolph, our Big Ass Fans, Kentucky Comfort Creator!

Bucket List Game, Trinity and Saint Xavier square off in Louisville this weekend @eCampusdotcom, @TrinityHSFB, @stxtigers, @CoachKWallace, @840WHAS, @FitzOn840WHAS, @khsaafootball, @KyHighFootball, @bigassfans

In the world of Kentucky high school football, a world about which we are undoubtedly familiar, the Trinity/St. Xavier game is often referred to as “The Game.” It is so big neither on campus stadium is viewed as sufficient to host the event. This is why it gets annually played at the stadium which hosts University of Louisville football games instead. This year neither team has lost a game to a Kentucky high school. That changes this weekend. We have taken a deep dive into the matchup, done our homework/research, and have forecast a winner. Let’s see how closely we get this or if we miss altogether. Enjoy the look at a “Bucket List” type event and game.

Brody Hicks (’28 TE/DE) from Prestonsburg is the Kentucky Comfort Creator of the Week @PrestonsburgHS, @BoysGirls13th, @Wes_Hager, @Ale8One, @bigassfans, @KyHighFootball, @khsaafootball

We thought we would dip in and cover a final Blackcat before we move along from Prestonsburg. P-burg doesn’t get enough coverage owing to being a small enrollment high school in an isolated and remote part of the commonwealth of Kentucky. At Big Ass Fans, we reach out and impact all parts of Kentucky, large or small, wherever we are needed. Brody Hicks is having a fine season particularly for a sophomore, two way player on an undefeated, contending football team, so we thought we would honor him today. Enjoy this look at Brody Hicks, our Big Ass Fans Kentucky Comfort Creator!

Thursday night (September 11, 2025) the Maroons from Madisonville North Hopkins found themselves facing judgement day. What else can a team term facing the defending KHSAA football champion, 4A’s top ranked team, and Kentucky’s 8th best football team regardless of enrollment or classification. The “Mops on Top” made for themselves the best case it could and Markezz Hightower rested his case for Mr. Football. All that is left now is to await the jury’s return and report of its verdict. Enjoy this feature on what was a magical and special evening on the campus of Madisonville North Hopkins High School.

We tried to tell everyone Prestonsburg was back last year when the team posted 11-wins against 2-losses. Everyone got too caught up in P-burg’s late season loss to Breathitt, a Breathitt squad with a very young offensive backfield which had grown up quite a bit by the 1st of November. Anyway, Prestonsburg just beat the best team on its schedule in overcoming Hazard in Prestonsburg this pas Saturday. We don’t see many teams among th remaining seven (7) able to play with the Blackcats. 10-0, here they come. Enjoy this look at Kain Patton, our Big Ass Fans Kentucky Comfort Creator!

Hopkinsville High entertains Prosser Career Academy (Chicago, IL) Saturday Night @KatherineL58069, @bigassfans, @Ale8One, @HopHighTigers, @Prosser_FB

Not all games are played on Friday Nights. Increasingly, games are being showcased on Saturdays and even Thursdays. Hoptown is entertaining a public school from Chicago, Illinois tonight. It is the Prosser Career Academy and the Falcons enter the game 1-0 on the young season. Hoptown (1-1) looks to be more than the Falcons can handle on paper at least and we like the Tigers by a sizable margin over the visiting team from Chi-Town. Enjoy this bit of Saturday Night special.

Storm Warning: Central left reeling from tough home loss but braces for Rebel Horde @LasatersCoffee, @bigassfans, @khsaafootball, @KyHighFootball, @HopkinsCentral, @_CoachManning

Like we have done in prior seasons, now the games are finally here, we will take the last week’s action and break it down and then look at the road ahead. We had quite the battle with Caldwell at home this past Friday night and the game turned on two fumble recoveries and a KO return for a TD comprising the 11-point difference between the two equally matched teams. What should we expect in Elkton, KY this coming Friday Night? Well, we will break that down for you right here.

Storm Warning: The Storm needs a strong year out of Kamran Harrison @LasatersCoffee, @minguabeefjerky, @bigassfans, @khsaafootball, @KyHighFootball, @HopkinsCentral, @_CoachManning

Kamran Harrison is a “Harrison.” There are those of you who have followed this program for many years who will not need the first statement explained. Kamran is a kid who was expected to do big things last season, and was doing big things, until injury derailed his season. Having him return to the lineup fully healthy makes the Storm a better ball club. The Storm don’t get players as good as Kam Harrison everyday. When the program gets a Kam Harrison, it is important to make it count. Enjoy this edition of Storm Warning.

Hubert Broaddus from Richmond, Kentucky was among the commonwealth’s best on the field, on the sideline, or in the front office… @MCentral_FB, @Mshs_Eagles_, @KyHighFootball, @khsaafootball, @minguabeefjerky, @bigassfans, @KatherineL58069, @LasatersCoffee

We get requests more frequently than you might think. However, there are requests and then there are requests from legendary football coaches like Mike Holcomb. I am sorry and this might not be fair but a request from Holcomb is going to carry a little more weight around KPGFootball than a requested from Boo-Boo’s mom. If you don’t know who “Boo-Boo” is, you need to read Sam Harp and my book. Anyway, Holcomb asked us to feature Hubert Broaddus and we called on historian, John Lovell to help us out with the assignment. Thank God for John Lovell. Enjoy the feature.
