Preseason Top Five in 3A plus a few more @BelfryFootball1, @TriggFootball, @centurions_fb, @CHSJacketFB, @echsfb, @LexCath @AlPopFootball @840WHAS @sfitz_840whas

Well, it is time for us to pick the 3A classification and how it will “shake out” this coming Fall. We could take the coward’s way out and pick last year’s champion, Christian Academy-Louisville, to repeat. Instead, we took the coward’s way out and picked eight-time title holder, Belfry. Enjoy. Friday Night Fletch.

Un-block-able, Kese Harris from @ColonelFootball appears to be a problem for Colonel opponents @ColonelFootball, @Treez23_, @KLanghi, @Christian_Co270, @PureGradeA, @AlPopFootball @minguabeefjerky @KyHighFootball @CoachAtchley

Demarkese Harris stepped away from the game in ’23 for reasons for which we wouldn’t be so bold as to fathom a guess. We can tell you “Kese” is back in a big way at Christian County and no two coaches are any happier about that than head man, Ethan Atchley, and defensive coordinator, Tony “Cheese” McCombs. Look for Kese to put up monster production in the coming Fall and look for his Colonels to be a much improved outfit than the one you remember from the year prior. Enjoy the article.

Storm Warning: The offensive front at Central will likely lean on Mason, Crick, Brown, Miles and Scott @HopkinsCentral @minguabeefjerky @840WHAS @PrepRedzone @KyHighFootball

This article here will prove “we’re out there” as much as any we have published maybe ever. Getting a handle on whom will be manning any team’s OL is a challenge. We can’t comment on all five slots, but feel confident we can predict three of the five slots. Enjoy this edition of Storm Warning. Friday Night Fletch.

Landon Yoak from East Carter is the @minguabeefjerky Protein-packed Performer of the Week. @Landon_yoak @echsfb @CoachChamplin @AlPopsFootball @840WHAS @KyHighFootball

July 24, 2024 Fletcher Long 0

Landon Yoak was one of Kentucky’s leaders in yards gained rushing from scrimmage a season ago. He was only a sophomore and helped lead his team to a 9-3 finish and near upset of Bell County, a 3A finalist, in the regional championship game. The Raiders lost 38-36 in overtime. Well Tim Champlin’s team looks to be loaded and ready for an even deeper run. Having the Yoak kid back for his junior season, at the pace he is setting, will be HUGE. Enjoy this feature and and don’t forget to #SavorTheFlavor. Friday Night Fletch.

Defection…Top 6A RB from Simon Kenton takes his talents to Anderson HS in Ohio… @rell_turner1 @CoachEvanDreyer

July 22, 2024 Fletcher Long 0

Players defecting hither, tither, and yon is a common occurrence and problem these days. Simon Kenton should be enjoying the benefits of having the classification’s top rusher returning. Instead, they are left to “pick up the pieces” as Turner has bolted to another school which may, or may not be, “greener pastures.” Enjoy the feature. Friday Night Fletch.

Desmond Richard from DeSales proves dynamite comes in smallish packages! @DeSalesColtsFB @jamesatkinson44 @a_lanham17 @840WHAS @AlPopsFootball @PrepRedZone @KyHighFootball

July 19, 2024 Fletcher Long 0

The Colts were among the more feared teams in HS football. Then, all of a sudden, they weren’t. It has been a long battle back up the ladder but St. Francis DeSales looks poised to resume its place among the Kentucky elite. Getting performances like what Desmond Richard did in ’23 has been the key. Enjoy the feature. Friday Night Fletch.

Hopkins County Central opens at Caldwell County: How we See It! @HopkinsCentral @minguabeefjerky @840WHAS @PrepRedzone @KyHighFootball

July 18, 2024 Fletcher Long 0

These two teams met a year ago. It was a six-point margin in Morton’s Gap and the margin in Princeton this year figures to be even closer. This game is a real “toss up” and this article will explain that to you. The Storm needs this game badly if it wants to reach the goals set for this coming season. We can’t wait. We’re sure you are as excited as well. Friday Night Fletch.

Kace Eastridge from Campbellsville is the @minguabeefjerky Protein-packed Performer of the Week @EastridgeKace @840WHAS @AlPopsFootball @PrepRedZone @KyHighFootball

July 17, 2024 Fletcher Long 0

Kace Eastridge is among the best dual threat QBs in Kentucky’s class of ’26. He is also one of Kentucky’s best baseball players at any level or any graduating year. The 6’1,” 190-pound RHP,OF plays QB on offense and LB on defense for the Eagles. Enjoy this feature and and don’t forget to #SavorTheFlavor of the country’s very finest beef jerky products.

Who is set to take the 2A title in football this Fall? We like the ‘little team which could,’ the Aces from Owensboro Catholic @CroweDereon @OCath_Football @SrHighFootball @minguabeefjerky @840WHAS @BradyAtwell5

July 16, 2024 Fletcher Long 0

Every year we like Owensboro Catholic to challenge for a title in 2A. Every year they seem to do just that before dropping a game in a late round. Last year, the Aces had the ball, down five, with a chance to go down the field and win the title and fell just shy of the mark. We like these guys to “do it” in ’24. We are taking them to win it. Enjoy the article. Friday Night Fletch.
