The season came to an inglorious end in Munfordville, Kentucky this past weekend. Still, there are many reasons to look forward to the program’s prospects and future success. We take a look back at the ’24 season as we slide into basketball season and football offseason training. Enjoy the feature.

I know it seems this particular feature has promoted quite a few Sayre Spartans. We can assure you it isn’t intended. It is just hard to ignore a program which has just polished off a perfect regular season at 10-0 headed into the Class A KHSAA playoffs. Why is that so hard to ignore? How about because there are only seven (7) such records among the 223-programs playing football across the commonwealth and Sayre is the only perfect regular season in its classification. Enjoy the feature and let’s keep it cool out there Kentucky!

Braxton Jennings is among the highest regarded and recruited ’25 prospects in the KHSAA. He is also among its better kept secrets. Jennings has led his Tomcats to a 9-1 mark, entering the 4A playoffs, and Ashland has yet to lose a game to a Kentucky high school on the year. What will they do in these upcoming playoffs? Well I can tell you this, they will be heard from, and so will Mr. Jennings.

Every now and again, we take requests. Some requests are to teach invaluable lessons football seeks to teach us all. It is one reason Coach Sam Harp and I wrote a book being released this Christmas. Enjoy this lesson and share it with the football players who are important to you.

In all of the excitement this year surrounding Boyle County’s thirty some-odd straight game winning streak, the Franklin Flyers being 10-0, and the Blue Tornado of Paducah finishing 10-0 and blowing out pretty much ever team it has played, we have sort of overlooked how good of a football team Ashland Blazer is. We have sone advice for 4A, best not overlook these guys going forward. You have been warned.

This Friday night the Pilots will guide its ship into an unfriendly port. Morton’s Gap will host this ball game which will be pivotal regarding how the Storm enters the upcoming playoffs. We need to go into the playoffs on a good note. We need to take care of business at home before going out on the road for round one. Enjoy the feature.

We don’t always recognize place-kickers with the frequency the position is due. So many times these place kickers win the game for the team and rarely get any kudos. This past Friday night, Kentucky Country Day beat the top-ranked 1A team in Campbellsville. The margin? Two PATs converted by today’s Protein-packed Performance, Colt Mizuguchi. Enjoy this feature and remember to both stop and smell the roses and #SavorTheFlavor.

When the polls get released, and the new RPI gets dropped, don’t be surprised to see Coach Chad Griffin’s Raiders from Hart County either at the very top or, certainly, around it. The team was 13-1 in 2023 and are 9-0 with a date with Campbellsville upcoming. Great coaches and great teams have great players. Brenan Griffin may be the best, raw, football player in Kentucky 3A. What would make us lay such a bold claim? Read on.

What an upset this past weekend, as Kentucky Country Day over Campbellsville denied me my first perfect weekend. Oh well, 14-1; I’ll take it. Parker Rudolph had quite the night and, not only was it statistically impressive, it came against the best team in the classification. Look out for KCD, they are alway quite good but this bunch may be special.

Brady Johnson is one, cool customer. That is why the ’26 dual threat QB is perfect for this particular award. Johnson was near flawless in Shelby Valley’s upset of Pike County Central at the Hawks Nest. What will he do this week? Won’t that be fun to learn?
