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.

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.

Storm Warning: Khristian Scott is looking to meet opponents at the cross roads this season… @HopkinsCentral, @_CoachManning, @minguabeefjerky, @bigassfans, @khsaafootball, @KyHighFootball

July 17, 2025 Fletcher Long 0

Khristian Scott has “the look.” He is 6’3,” in the neighborhood of 265, and has a glare that would make a stranger want to cross the street just to get away from him. We need more tough guys like him manning the lines of scrimmage in Morton’s Gap. Enjoy this exclusive look at a player who will factor in heavily in the Storm’s seasonal prospects.

Storm Warning, with nothing left but some Sevens throws, two scrimmages, and the opener what should we see from the Storm in ’25? @HopkinsCentral, @_CoachManning, @minguabeefjerky, @bigassfans, @khsaafootball, @KyHighFootball

It is that time of year. We are all coming out of the “Dead Period” and we want to know how our hometown, high school football team is likely to fare in the coming season? We have taken an in-depth look into one of our favorite teams, Hopkins County Central, and have attempted to forecast that very thing. Enjoy this breakdown of the Storm’s team and upcoming season. Let’s brace for the glorious season ahead enjoying this country’s greatest and most significant export.

Slow Motion Replay: Vic Marsh from Blazer High was a Franklin fan it would seem @murrayhighFB, @MurrayTigers, @MurrayQBClub, @HopHighTigers, @HopkAthletics, @minguabeefjerky, @bigassfans, @khsaafootball, @KyHighFootball

Today we are going to learn a thing or two about history by learning about two important historical figures. One of them is Benjamin Franklin, known for his wisdom and wit and coming up with great quotations still used today. The other guy is Vic Marsh, who famously believed in preparation and was very probably a reader of Benjamin Franklin and a fan. Whether he was a fan of Franklin or not, we at KPGFootball were certainly fans of his. Enjoy this 72nd installment of our series, “Slow Motion Replay.”

Slow Motion Replay: Alvis Johnson and an anecdote on acorns @KyHighFootball, @minguabeefjerky, @bigassfans, @driver_brock, @CoachHaddix11, @khsaafootball, @WoodfordFBall, @Woodfordsuper1, @mctitansfball

We keep running across coaches deserving of recognition. This guy here lent a tremendous amount of credence to the proverb about acorns not falling too far from its tree. Alvis Johnson played football at Christian County High School in the 60s and went on to become a football player for the Western Kentucky Hilltoppers. Upon graduation, Johnson came home to Hopkinsville and began as an assistant football coach at his alma mater. Thereafter, Johnson got the head coaching job at Harrodsburg where he built them into a 1A powerhouse. Johnson won over 71% of the games in which he coached, totaling 194-wins against only 77-losses with three (3) trips to the finals, losing in 1996 to Beechwood in overtime. This guy here was among the greatest track coaches in the history of the KHSAA like yesterday’s feature Ben Pumphrey. Sons Derrick and Dennis Johnson were part of Harrodsburg’s huge run of success in the ’90s and both went on to play at the University of Kentucky. Enjoy this feature.
