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.

William Shakespeare once mused “What’s in a name?” Well there is something in a name and as a fellow “Fletcher” I would profess Union County’s Abreyan “Abe” Fletcher is doing more with the name than I ever did. We are going to look at this special three (3) phase contributor and whether he can take the Braves back to Lexington to get another bite at the apple. Along the way, we may have a little fun with the etymology of the name the two of us share. Enjoy the feature.

We identified John Luke Minner as one of the best LBs in the KHSAA in 2024. That is why he made first team All-State on our Big Ass Fan’s Small School team. Coming into ’25 he figures to be on the list again provided he performs commensurate to how he performed a year ago. He has committed to play collegiately at Brown University in the Ivy Leagues. That is a Division I ride to one of the country’s most prestigious schools. If catching a ride to the Ivy Leagues isn’t prize worthy, we aren’t sure we know what is. Enjoy this feature and let’s keep it comfortable out there, Kentucky, while you allow us to help out in that regard.

We started this journey we call Kentucky Prep Gridiron reporting mainly on middle school players. When our initial middle school stars matriculated to high school, we came with them. We don’t cover middle school football as much as we once did but we do cover it. Today, we report on a kid who may be the best 8th-grade QB in the commonwealth of Kentucky. He is darn sure athletic. He is darn sure well developed with room for quite a bit more anatomical development. Let’s keep it comfortable out there, Kentucky, and allow us to help you out in that regard as we tell you the story of Samuel Speakes Wilson from Paris, KY.

John Luke Minner, the KHSAA’s ‘premier edge rusher,’ has committed to the Ivy League and Brown University @john_minner13, @ChadPennington, @lexsayrefb, @KYHighFootball, @minguabeefjerky, @bigassfans

I got a call one time from a kid who had signed with Princeton. Princeton, like Brown, is an Ivy League school, or the elite of the elite as this country has historically thought of the Ivy League. Well anyway this kid was voicing some displeasure about Princeton’s having a bad season. My response…”Are you kidding me, son? You’re going to Princeton. Who cares if you go 0-40 while there? You’re still getting a degree from Princeton.” You get the point. Football is a tool to a better life if you’re smart about it. Enjoy this feature about Kentucky’s most lethal edge threat and how he has scored a major win.

Miles Hollon from Breathitt High is the Big Ass Fans Kentucky Comfort Creator of the Week @Qb1miles4, @Eli_thomas11, @LasatersCoffee, @bigassfans, @minguabeefjerky, @khsaafootball, @KyHighFootball,

Miles Hollon is a rare commodity among ’28 QBs. While many of them are selling “potential,” he’s selling production. How many QBs throw for close to 2,000 yards with 21-thrown TDs as freshmen? You can count them on less than a single hand. Hollon’s frame and growth potential are big pluses for him as he is our Big Ass Fans, Kentucky Comfort Creator this week. Let’s keep it cool out there KY.

Alexander Schuster from Trinity High is the Big Ass Fans Kentucky Comfort Creator of the Week @alexschuster69, @LasatersCoffee, @bigassfans, @minguabeefjerky, @khsaafootball, @KyHighFootball, @CoachVanderpool, @Aspirationsgym, @TrinityHSFB

Alexander Schuster looks to battle it out for a slot along the interior offensive line for Kentucky’s premier high school football program. It is hard to find the field for Trinity until your junior season no matter who you are. Schuster has worked his tail off and has bided his time. It is his day. Trinity is coming off a 13-2 season and yet another 6A KHSAA football title. All told, Trinity has won 29-championships and favored to make it 30. Schuster’s frame and growth potential are big pluses for him as he is our Big Ass Fans Kentucky Comfort Creator this week. Let’s keep it cool out there KY.

BO-dacious; Belfry’s big-time OG! @wolford_bo, @BelfryFootball1, @khsaafootball, @KyHighFootball, @WYMT, @minguabeefjerky, @bigassfans, @LasatersCoffee

Bo Wolford is a bodacious, fine tactician at the offensive line slot. That is one heck of a compliment. He is also the KHSAA’s best interior guy blocking along any front competing at the high school level. We have followed this guy for years. Our admiration for him just continues to grow. Last year, as a junior, Bo-Bo was a first team All-Stater on the Big Ass Fans Small School team and a 2nd teamer on the Courier Journal squad. We believe he is the KHSAA’s best player at the position even though he is likely to slide out to tackle and play there this coming season. Enjoy this feature about one of our favorite players.

Chase Bell (’28 QB) from South Warren is this week’s Kentucky Comfort Creator from @bigassfans @minguabeefjerky, @KyHighFootball, @khsaafootball, @SouthWarrenFB, @IamChaseBell15

July 11, 2025 Fletcher Long 0

Chase Bell and Camden Page look to battle it out preseason for the QB-slot at South Warren vacated by Bryce Button’s graduation. South Warren is coming off a 12-2 season where it was arguably the second best team in 5A in ’24. Where will they figure into the 6A title chase? Well, we don’t know. We would suppose they will go as far as either Page or Bell carries them. Chase Bell is a ’28 guy with an incredible frame and athleticism so impressive Maryland has already offered. Bell’s frame and growth potential are carrying the day for him as he is our Big Ass Fans Kentucky Comfort Creator this week. Let’s keep it cool out there KY.
