In 1969, the great Satchel Paige was remarking on the quickness of fellow Negro League player, James Cool Papa Bell. Paige described Cool Papa Bell as being …so fast that he could turn the light out and be in bed before the room got dark. The late Muhammad Ali, from […]
When the Kentucky Future Stars take the field in Clarksville, Tennessee June 17, 2017 at Fortera Stadium on the campus of APSU, at the helm will be LaKunta Farmer. LaKunta guided the 8th grade team from last year (Class of 2020) to a 44-27 defeat of the Tennessee Future Stars […]
In the spirit of the upcoming Tennessee-Kentucky Future Stars Game, I thought I would highlight one of the 14 players who played in the game last year presently offered by Division I, College Football programs. Ladies and Gentlemen, may I present 6’2″ 275 pound interior defensive lineman Octavius Oxendine. Octavius played […]
We at Kentucky Prep Gridiron include Clarksville, Tennessee in our sphere owing to it being just across the border from Hopkinsville, Kentucky and largely considered in the same Metropolitan area as Hopkinsville. As we continue to rev up for the upcoming season, we begin directing, at least partly, some focus on […]

Pedigree in football may not be everything…but it is something. Chadrick Dewberry played collegiately at EKU, and two of those years for the legendary Roy Kidd. While this may not guarantee Cameron will follow in his Dad’s footsteps and realize football glory for himself, there is data suggesting it makes […]
Well, we wrote about his cousin Trel Riley when we asked whether he was the best Corner in the Commonwealth. We come back to both the 2019 class and Caldwell County to tell you about Jameer Riley. Jameer is a 5’11” 160 pound receiver-free safety who can line up outside […]
When you look at Quintrell Dixon’s 6’5″ 330 pound frame, it is hard to not have an expletive slip past the goalie. I mean, what do you say about an 8th grader who is that big. He has to be goofy and un-athletic as Hell, right? Wrong! I have had […]
