@JalenHand will have his hand in the @FDouglassFB defensive effort. @minguabeefjerky @PrepSpin @1776Bank @KyHighFootball @MaxPreps

February 24, 2022 Henry Lyon 0

He’s among the very best down linemen in the Commonwealth’s ’23 graduating class. Big programs are jumping on with offers and many others are circling looking for a place to land. His name is Jalen Hand and he is just another example of the strides Lexington, KY and its in-town programs have made in establishing Lexington as a hot-bed of in-KY recruiting. Enjoy the feature. HB.

@JCommo04 from @BourbonFootball is the @minguabeefjerky Protein-packed Performer of the Week. @davidjones_7 @BourbonFootball @BourbonColonels @1776Bank @PrepSpin @MaxPreps @KyHighFootball

This week’s Protein-packed Performer is a versatile athlete who can do plenty of things for a football team. He will undoubtedly be an elite prospect in the ’23 class and is already drawing major interest from teams like EKU which has invited him to “Junior Day.” Enjoy this look at a player who, like Mingua Beef Jerky, knows something of rendering incredible value and performance. While you are at it, get some of the world’s finest beef jerky and savor the quality and taste while you learn more about this quality young man. HB.

@ifiz03_isaiah (Isaiah Fitzpatrick) headed to @UCPatriotFball clearly demonstrating his being among the most clever and skilled players in the ’22 class. @StarrThompson20 @CoachHouse_UC @Aspirationsgym @Markisdad @TheBearcatDen @minguabeefjerky @PrepSpin @1776Bank @MaxPreps @KyHighFootball

Isaiah Fitzpatrick was among Kentucky’s very finest as a high school football player. Several in-state schools felt strongly enough about that to insist on fully funding his upcoming college experience. He jumped on the opportunity, leaving some bigger programs trying to PWO him to their roster hanging at the alter. In the grand scheme, he was shrewd, smart, and cagy and we applaud his decision. Enjoy this feature. HB.

The future is now for @DjMudd5 (Damarien Mudd) from @LouisvilleCHS. @1776Bank @minguabeefjerky @PrepSpin @MaxPreps @KyHighFootball

February 21, 2022 Henry Lyon 0

Damarien Mudd is an up and comer with a bright future playing for Louisville’s Central High. He is a track star, in addition to what he does on the football field. He didn’t get a ton of run in ’20 but we would expect him to be an active part of the team’s efforts in the Fall of ’22 and thereafter. Enjoy this look at a kid who will be a junior next year. HB.

Class of ’23, @wadehensley29 from @PikevilleHSFB an example of the Panthers being loaded with talent. @1776Bank @minguabeefjerky @PrepSpin @MaxPreps @KyHighFootball

February 19, 2022 Henry Lyon 0

Year after year Pikeville High School has talent come off its bus which defies all logic in evaluating a Kentucky 1A roster. We would suppose that is why the Panthers are perpetually in the Title hunt at the 1A classification in football. Wade Hensley, and talent very much like him, promises the Panthers are likely to be in the hunt in ’22 also. Enjoy this feature. HB.

@AidenWetherho1 (Aiden Weatherholt) from @Football_Hornet is the @1776Bank ‘Revolutionary Player of the Week.’ @minguabeefjerky @PrepSpin @KyHighFootball @MaxPreps

Middle School Spotlight: @PigpenVance (Class of ’26) from @NOMustangs has been making a mess of opposing offensive backfields. @1776Bank @minguabeefjerky @KyHighFootball @MaxPreps @PrepSpin

February 15, 2022 Henry Lyon 0

We don’t know why Greyson Vance is called “Pigpen.” Maybe he stinks at cleaning his room or making his bed. He has been wrecking havoc on opposing offensive backfields. He leaves them mighty untidy most of the time. Enjoy our breakdown of Pigpen Vance in this edition of Middle School Spotlight. HB.

Reunion: Two former Junior Pro teammates set to team up at @CentreFootball. @millerbarnett4, @williammlong, @1776Bank, @minguabeefjerky, @PrepSpin, @MaxPreps

William Long (60) and Miller Barnett (18), both in green jerseys with gold numerals, will be both in gold once more. This time, the two former junior pro teammates will be donning the Gold and White of Centre College for the next several years. Enjoy this look at two football players who grew up together and have now found themselves together once more. HB.
