There will be those who will tell you the newly consolidated “Tigers,” from Christian County High, will go as far next season as players like TJ Booker can lead them. Booker is a talent and played six (6) games a year ago for the Christian County Colonels as only a freshman. The newly consolidated school shouldn’t hurt for talent and the Tigers are amassing an array of coaching talent to “put the team through its paces” in its upcoming inaugural season. Regardless, young guns like Booker will be critical. Good thing he is also extremely talented. Enjoy this look at one of Hopkinsville, Kentucky more talented prep-level athletes brought to you by your friends and neighbors at Lasaters’s Coffee & Tea where you aren’t just served; you’re loved!

Caleb Collins from Calloway County is our Bank of Cadiz & Trust Company Feature of the Week @KYHighFootball, @MurrayLedger, @CClakerfootball, @teeroyhowell, @khsaafootball, @bigassfans, @LasatersCoffee, @eCampusdotcom

We continue on with our offseason coverage not really discussing players of the week so much as discussing featured players and prospects. Caleb Collins is a versatile football talent in the Kentucky-wide, KHSAA football game today who is among the best at his level of play and particularly on the western end of KY. Collins came on our radar with his play last season in Coach Coby Lewis’s inaugural season at the helm of the Lakers’s ship. Since then, Collins has done nothing but confirm we were all right about him from the beginning. Collins is only going to improve over his senior season, particularly on offense where he should get many more opportunities. Collins is the kind of kid coaches want to coach and, in the end, that may be the finest compliment which can be paid to him (or any other kid). Enjoy the feature.

Is JB Woolum a Mr. Football Candidate? We Think So! @JbWoolum2, @CoachWolford55, @BelfryFootball1, @cadenwoolum11, @khsaafootball, @KyHighFootball, @bigassfans, @eCampusdotcom, @unwiredapp

Last year, as a junior, JB Woolum helped lead Belfry to a 12-2 worksheet and a narrow, on the road, loss (5-points, 34-29) to the classification’s title winner (Lexington Christian Academy “LCA”). Woolum registered 82-rushes, 1,066-yards (13-yards a carry), 20-TDs, with 24-receptions, 520-yards, and 6-TDs receiving on offense while scoring 164-points (20-TDs rushing, 6-receiving, a KO return, and a two (2) pointer). On defense, Woolum registered 50-tackles, 1-TFL, and four (4) INTs for 70-IRNYs. On special teams, he returned punts and kicks, housing a KR. Another year like that and we have another “Mr. Football” plaque to place on the field house wall next to Isaac Dixon’s. Is JP Woolum a “Mr. Football” candidate? He is in our book!

Quinton Simon from Highlands High (Fort Thomas, KY) is the @bigassfans Kentucky Comfort Creator Feature of the Week @QuintonSimon29, @HighlandsFB, @HSphire, @Highlandspower1, @PrepRedzone, @bigassfans, @eCampusdotcom, @KyHighFootball, @khsaafootball

June 5, 2026 Fletcher Long 0

Quinton Simon is an under the radar guy who only got a couple nights run under the “Friday Night Lights.” Still, with limited opportunity, Simon has proven himself an exceptional talent among ’29 WR/LB/DB/KR/ATH across the commonwealth of Kentucky. One could even say Simon has been keeping it very cool there in the Fort Thomas, KY football scene. Simon was a star on the JV in both football and basketball and figures to mature into an every down, multi-phase threat for the Bluebirds in 2026. Simon sports a 3.77-GPA and at 5’10,” 175-pounds, he will be a tough matchup for plenty of opponents going forward. Coach Bob Sphire will be mighty happy, going forward into the ’26 season, to have an offensive/defensive/special teams (returner) weapon on the roster like Simon. Let’s keep it comfortable out there, Kentucky, and allow us to help you in that regard at Big Ass Fans!

Jeremiah Smith from the Christian County Tigers, is our Lasaters Coffee & Tea Wake Up and Smell the Coffee feature of the week @HopHighTigers, @LasatersCoffee, @The_CoachLo, @County_TigerFB, @khsaafootball, @KyHighFootball, @bigassfans, @eCampusdotcom

Jeremiah Smith is built and put together the right way. Smith is compact and strong with flexibility and the willingness to contribute in multiple phases of the game. 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.

Are the Lions grooming Tyson McCray to play QB? @bigassfans, @eCampusdotcom, @khsaafootball, @KyHighFootball,

May 30, 2026 Fletcher Long 0

Every football team has a star player regardless of the degree to which the team has struggled in any one season. The same is true of the Lewis County Lions. Coach Dalton Stamm has a young freshman in Tyson McCray they believe will round into an effective QB, has played the position in JV and for the scout team, but who is presently a three-phase performer who has carried the ball from scrimmage, caught a handful of passes, and has registered 27-tackles, registered a pair of sacks, registered a pair of INTs, and accumulated 55-IRNYs on defense all over 10-games of run as a freshman. Not a ton of freshmen hit the Friday Night Field in 3A, District 6. With in-district toughies like Russell and East Carter looming, what McCray got done in ’25 is even more impressive. No telling what this kid might do when he fully, physically matures.

Deonatae Edison is the Bank of Cadiz & Trust Co. Feature of the Week @KYHighFootball, @MurrayLedger, @CClakerfootball, @teeroyhowell, @khsaafootball, @bigassfans, @LasatersCoffee, @eCampusdotcom

May 25, 2026 Fletcher Long 0

We continue on with our offseason coverage not really discussing players of the week so much as discussing featured players and prospects. Deonatae Edison is simply among the best multi-phase football talents in the Kentucky-wide, KHSAA football game today at any level and a tremendous prospect in more phases than just on defense. Edison broke onto the scene over his junior year and registered a team leading among of TFLs and QB-sacks. New head coach, Curtis Higgins (that felt funny calling him “New”) needs Edison to continue being among the commonwealth’s more talented three phase threats. Edison has done nothing but confirm we were all right about him from the beginning. Edison is only going to improve over his senior season, particularly on defense where he should get many more opportunities. Edison is the kind of kid coaches want to coach and, in the end, that may be the finest compliment which can be paid to him (or any other kid). Enjoy the feature.

Max Sturm, from McCracken, ready for an expanded role on the ’26 roster @MCHFC_Brooks78, @MaxSturm09, @racersfootball, @eCampusdotcom, @khsaafootball, @KyHighFootball, @bigassfans

May 23, 2026 Fletcher Long 0

Max Sturm is among the best DBs in the ’28 graduating class particularly in western Kentucky. Sturm registered 56-tackles, a pair of TFLs, a FF, and an INT in the 10-games of PT he got as a sophomore. Sturm figures to be a starter in 2026 from night one, snap one. Finding the field as a sophomore is a “good sign” for those hoping to move on to next level success. We would like to see Sturm on the offensive side some more this coming season. The 5’10,” 160-pounder sports a 250-pound bench press and squats 385. He has plenty of strength and explosion to be a steady hand on offense and a three-phase performer on a 6A roster, something not easy to do. This kid’s 4.0-GPA makes him an easy take for many of the colleges around the commonwealth fielding college football teams. Enjoy the feature.
