A few years ago, Cameron Bulle came out of middle school and asked the varsity Scotties to take a chance on him. The Scotties elected to take that chance and the results have been impressive and favorable. Today we bestow on Cameron Bulle the highest honor known to this level of competition, the prestigious Protein-packed Performer of the Week from Mingua Beef Jerky. Enjoy this feature on a kid very deserving of some of the world’s finest beef jerky products and don’t forget to #SavorTheFlavor out there in Glasgow, KY.

Jack Long is a kid we weren’t sure would get cleared to play the coming season. As it turns out, he got cleared by provided he wears a helmet specifically designed to avoid head trauma, limit his contact through the week, and be permitted to wear a concussion cap during KHSAA games. As it turns out, Jack’s rejoining the team was important for reasons other than football. One of Jack’s coaches suffered a medical incident related to his exertion in the heat and other medical issues he was suffering at the time and Jack, mid-scrimmaging, was observant enough to notice it and call attention to it. The early detection may have made all the difference in the world.

We continue to feature some of the better QBs in the KHSAA. That being said, there aren’t too many better than Holy Cross’s Jerek Hoover who is 6’0,” 170-pounds, threw for close to two-thousand yards last year while running for another 634, and scored or was responsible for 22-TDs running and throwing. Oh yeah, he sports a 3.7-GPAs. This is a guy who looks very recruitable to us, particularly if your program has a tough admission’s committee to by-pass.

Jack Long, from Christian County, may have saved a coach’s life at practice last night; now that’s a primetime play! @jacklongFb, @KatherineL58069, @LasatersCoffee, @minguabeefjerky, @bigassfans, @khsaafootball, @KyHighFootball, @davaree_gude6, @TriggFootball, @CountyColonels, @HopHighTigers

We are always reporting on some guy making tackles, throwing some passes, catching TDs and the like. Football is more than just making plays; it is about being family. Last night, James Nicholas Whaley (Jack Whaley) Long may have saved one of his coach’s lives. New coach Kelly Myers was having a diabetic episode, which involved seizures, and Jack recognized it and called for his getting some help before the situation descended into the depths of no return. Thank the Lord Jack is as observant a kid as he happens to be. Thank God this situation didn’t end up being much worse. Way to go Jack Whaley Long.

There are plenty of QBs in the KHSAA. That being said, there aren’t too many 6’4,” 210-pound QBs who throw for a couple thousand yards, enjoy a 2.5:1 TD to INT ratio, and sport 3.9-GPAs. This is a guy who looks very recruitable to us, particularly if your program has a tough admission’s committee to by-pass.

We believe the Maroons look poised to have a wonderful season. They have one of the best TEs in the game in Jayden Travis. They have some all-state types like Travion Stafford and Kirk LaGrange. They have some “young guns” like Kaden Price and Ryder Sandidge. Having a “Mr. Football” candidate at RB doesn’t hurt.

Hulking TE from North-Hopkins (Madisonville), Jayden Travis is our Protein-packed Performer of the Week @Jayden_travis87 @markezz_25, @khsaafootball, @KyHighFootball, @minguabeefjerky, @bigassfans, @Maroon_FB_MNHHS, @price_kadence

It is easy to get caught up in the Markezz Hightower fan fare. Hightower is a fantastic ball player, an all state running-back, and coming off a near 1,800- total yards season with 21-TDs scored running and receiving. That aside, Hightower isn’t running a one-man band over there at North. Jayden Travis is a hulking TE with good speed, excellent power numbers, a fine GPA, and a 280-pound power clean evidencing tremendous explosion. Travis is coming off a 25-reception season himself and that is darn-fine playing on a run first team at the TE slot. This guy will field some offers in short order. If he has the kind of season in ’25 he had in ’24, look out 5A because the Maroons will be looking to improve drastically over the 7-4 it posted in ’24. Enjoy this feature and don’t forget to pick up some world famous jerky products from Mingua Beef Jerky and “SavorTheFlavor.”

There was a movie released by Disney in 1994 entitled “Angels in the Outfield.” It was a remake of a 1951 film of the same name. The remake starred Danny Glover, Tony Danza, and Christopher Lloyd and resulted in two (2), made for TV sequels. The movie was about a young child, in foster care, sarcastically told his family would reunite “when the Angels win the pennant” by his newly widowed father. Roger, the young boy who is the movie’s protagonist, prays for such and a group of angels appeared to help the team. At the end of the day, it was explained that while the “Angels in the outfield” helped the team surge to the top of the division, the “Angels” could not help the team win a title or championship. Well, Lincoln County looks to have gotten some Angelic assistance of its own in a 6’3,” 335-pound OL transfer from Southwestern with the surname of Flores. There are no heavenly imposed limitations on his assistance. Enjoy the feature.

The ‘White Rhino’ hoping to hit the lineup for St. Xavier sooner rather than later @JaxonFrench29, @coacharichman, @Trent_Steelman, @CoachKWallace, @minguabeefjerky, @bigassfans, @khsaafootball, @KyHighFootball

We are just a few days from coming out of the abyss we affectionately know as “The Dead Period.” The season lies in wait for us on the other side. One thing we do offseason is inform readers about some of the stars coming out of middle school who figure to contribute right off the bat. Jaxon French is certainly a ’29 we could see working himself into the lineup early. He is 6’3,” 200-pounds and clips off 40-yards in the 4.5s. He is so good in the weight room he is called the “Iron Giant.” He is such a rarity as an athlete he is also nicknamed the “White Rhino.” Regardless of what you call him, if you’re calling football games at St. Xavier this Fall, you will be calling out his name sooner or later. Enjoy the feature.

Jacob Litteral from Raceland Worthington High School is quite literally our Mingua Beef Jerky Protein-packed Performer of the Week @jlitt56, @racelandramsfb, @Bryson1Rowsey, @minguabeefjerky, @khsaafootball, @KyHighFootball, @bigassfans, @Ott_Football

There are loads of exceptions offensive linemen in Kentucky who may not have the “frame” and measurements to get recruited to the SEC or some other NCAA Division I (Power 4) conference type program. This doesn’t mean football isn’t in the cards and it certainly doesn’t mean the young men so afflicted won’t have tremendous college football experiences. Jacob Litteral is quite literally a beast, a dog, and a future college football player. Heck, a very good Ohio Athletic Conference team, from Westerville, OH (Otterbein), is all over this guy and who could possibly blame them? I am hoping this article gets some commonwealth programs on this guy, as we would like to see him stay home.
