It is the midway point of the ’22 season. This is a junior RB we forecast would have a big year back before the season commenced. It is time for us to take stock of this prediction. Well, Gregory hasn’t let us down in the least. He is having a wonderful season and, should he keep it up, looks poised to take the Jaguars to unprecedented heights as a football program. Enjoy the feature. HB.

Checking in with one of our ‘Mr. Football’ Candidates, Kenyon Goodin from Collins High. @KenyonGoodin @EKUFootball @minguabeefjerky @PrepSpin @1776Bank @HLpreps @kyhighs @KyHighFootball @MaxPreps

We adorned this cat a “Mr. Football” candidate way back over nine (9) months ago. Since that crowning, Goodin hasn’t done anything but make us look rather prophetic. We decided we would check in on him half way through his senior year just to see what he was doing. What he is doing is wowing his end of Kentucky. Enjoy the feature. HB.

Gunnar McKinley, ’23 TE/DE, has the Centurions right in the title hunt. @GLFCA1 @centurions_fb @CenturionAD @minguabeefjerky @kyhighs @HLpreps @KyHighFootball @1776Bank @MaxPreps @PrepSpin

It is dad-burn frustrating from time to time to even find pictures of prospects online. So many Kentucky High School stars fly “under the radar.” This particular ’23 prospect who is framed out exactly like the colleges like doesn’t even appear to have a Twitter page or a Hudl account. We were able to pull some highlights for him from off of MaxPreps. Enjoy learning about a play for the Centurions who may be among the very best playing in the greater Louisville area this year. HB.

Josh Johnson from duPont Manual High is the @1776Bank Revolutionary Player of the Week. @_Sw1ch @Maual_Football @BlakeyAiden @LippertScouting @WKURecruiting @minguabeefjerky @kyhighs @MaxPreps @PrepSpin @KyHighFootball @HLpreps

Josh Johnson has long been among our favorite players in Kentucky’s ’23 class. He is a bull in a china shop type interior wrecking ball athletic enough to play from tackle out to end for the Crimsons who are being widely discovered as among Kentucky’s very finest football teams at any classification of play. Enjoy this look at a guy every defense in Kentucky would relish having deployed along the down defensive front.

Isaac Turner from Breathitt County…nothing wrong with his ‘Wheels.’ @BreathittFB @minguabeefjerky @PrepSpin @KyHighFootball @1776Bank @MaxPreps @HLpreps @kyhighs @NotBHSbarstool

At “KPGFootball,” we think high school fans tend to get too consumed with who is or isn’t a college recruit or prospect. Sometimes fans fail to fully appreciate the stars of the high school game, the game we have built a business on covering. Isaac “Wheels” Turner is a bright light among a pantheon of high school football stars who wow us weekly with incredible feats of physical skill often amounting to either victory or defeat for our beloved alma maters across the commonwealth of Kentucky. Let’s not forget these guys. Well, we won’t. Enjoy this feature written about a true “Friday night hero.” HB.

Jamarion Hocker from @BooneRebels_FB is the @minguabeefjerky Protein-packed Performer of the Week! @BCHS_Rebels1955 @BooneCoRebels @football_boone @1776Bank @KyHighFootball @PrepSpin @MaxPreps @HLPreps @kyhighs

Not every book can be judged by its cover. Jamarion Hocker, who looks more like an offensive guard than a QB, has demonstrated just how deceiving looks can often be. Hocker has darn-sure been playing like a QB and his stats are bearing out that particular point. Enjoy this feature about a junior QB who appears capable of doing it all and who also seems assured of being on a ton of recruiting boards going forward.

Which team, in 3A, is at the top, Kentucky-wide? Here is our ‘case for the ‘Cats…’ @minguabeefjerky @LintonTay @PrepSpin @KyHighFootball @kyhighs @HLpreps @CoachEzell45 @APSUCoachJones @1776Bank @MaxPreps

They are quite possibly the ‘feel good’ story thus far in the ’22 football season in the Kentucky High School game. They are also (in our magazine’s opinion) the best darn football team playing 3A right now in the commonwealth. Before you dismiss this opinion, let us make our case…HB

Daniel Thomas from @BellCountyFB may be the most versatile Bobcat in the Bell County lair. @DanielThomas_4 @BoyGirls13th @minguabeefjerky @1776Bank @PrepSpin @KyHighFootball @MaxPreps @HLpreps @kyhighs

Hard to imagine a more versatile athlete on any high school football roster than Daniel Thomas from Bell County, Kentucky. Coach Hilton knows talent when he sees it and he knows how to deploy said talent. That is why he has won over 400-games as a high school football coach. Enjoy this look at a football and wrestling star in the Middlesboro, Kentucky area. HB.

Hopkins County Central players, James Posey, ’24, and Jacob Osborne, ’23, co-recipients of the @1776Bank ‘Revolutionary Player(s) of the Week.’ @HopkinsCentral @_CoachManning #SoundTheSiren @minguabeefjerky @KyHighFootball @kyhighs @MaxPreps @PrepSpin

There are some skills at Hopkins Central compiling some auspicious numbers through four games. We shouldn’t forget there are some guys around the skills who have the job of thanklessly making this all happen. Two such guys, James Posey and Jacob Osbourne, are the focus of today’s feature and the co-recipients of this week’s Revolutionary Player(s) of the Week. Enjoy the feature. HB.
