Storm Warning
Storm Warning: Cruz Cavanaugh getting ready to ‘put it all together’ in ’24 @cruz_cavanaugh5 @_CoachManning @minguabeefjerky @1776Bank @HopkinsCentral @840WHAS
We featured this guy a year ago, in June of ’23. It was our prediction he would crack the lineup sometime over his freshman season. Well, he got in a game but didn’t exactly crack the lineup. There has been some graduation attrition since then and he seems assured of getting plenty of PT over the course of his upcoming sophomore season. Enjoy this look at Central’s Cruz Cavanaugh. Friday Night Fletch.
Isaac Manning is the @1776Bank Revolutionary Player of the Week @_CoachManning @HopkinsCentral @840WHAS @minguabeefjerky @JoshGunn311
Isaac Manning figures the be “The Man” on the Storm’s roster for ’24. He was a multi-phase contributor in ’23 and has one of the more dynamic skill-sets on this end of Kentucky playing 3A football. Enjoy this feature and don’t forget to get by your local Independence Bank and discover why and how our people, financial products, and services have started a revolution in the Kentucky banking industry.

Storm Warning: Garrett Morgan from Hopkins Central may end up as well known as the ‘other’ Garrett Morgan… @HopkinsCentral @minguabeefjerky @1776Bank @840WHAS
’26 two-way lineman is a member of the band and quite accomplished at that Garrett Morgan is a 6’1,” 225-pounder who toiled away on the JV in ’23 and made the KMEA All-District Band. Now that is versatility. Morgan figures to play a more prominent role in ’24 as he […]
Storm Warning: Kamran Harrison will be a junior in 2024 and there is a level of excellence expected from ‘Harrisons’ @HopkinsCentral @minguabeefjerky @PrepSpin @KyHighFootball @MaxPreps @1776Bank @_CoachManning
Kamran Harrison is the little brother of a Storm player who fully demonstrated his wares as a varsity football player. Kamran is outstanding and versatile like big brother. He runs track, power lifts, and contributed greatly to the finished product on the field in ’23 while just a sophomore. What will he do as a junior? It just may be mind boggling. Friday Night Fletch.
Storm Warning: Micheal Gossett is throwing his hat in the ring for the title, “World’s Most Famous Gossett”
Michael Gossett is a freshman RB/FB who didn’t get any varsity run in ’23 but figures to get quite a bit of PT in ’24 owing to the graduation of two-time, All-State FB, Calil McNary. Gossett, a ’27, may also put his name in nomination for the world’s most famous person named, “Gossett,” and that competition is a bit stiffer than you may realize. Enjoy this edition of “Storm Warning.”
Storm Warning: Charles (Dylan) Beringer hoping to make the surname famous for more than wine @beringervyds @minguabeefjerky @1776Bank @840WHAS @HopkinsCentral @KyHighFootball
We have been focusing on versatility this offseason and Charles “Dylan” Beringer fits that bill. Beringer plays along the OL and the DL and appears to run track and cross country. He may be called upon to contribute mightily in ’24 along the varsity lines of scrimmage. Let’s see if he will be up to that challenge. Friday Night Fletch.
Storm Warning: Aundreias Murphy needs to put forth a heroic effort for his team in 2024 @HopkinsCentral @_CoachManning @minguabeefjerky @840WHAS @1776Bank
Aundreias Murphy reminds us of the late, great Audie Murphy for reasons we will explain in the piece. Our Murphy is a bit undersized and young, like the Murphy who came before him, but perhaps he may put forth such a Herculean effort. Enjoy the feature. Friday Night Fletch.
Storm Warning: Mr. Jones and me; [C]ounting [C]rows until the 2024 season finally arrives @HopkinsCentral @minguabeefjerky @1776Bank @840WHAS @KyHighFootball
The Counting Crows recorded a huge hit entitled “Mr. Jones” in 1993. We wonder if Jaiden Jones has ever heard the song. It is about two guys with dreams and how they can realize those dreams. Jaiden Jones dreams of running out under the Friday Night Lights. Time to make those dreams a reality. Friday Night Fletch.
Storm Warning: Beware the Gunn-Slinger @JoshGunn311 @HopkinsCentral @minguabeefjerky @840WHAS @KyHighFootball @1776Bank
His name is Sylas Gunn. We call him the Gunn-slinger around our offices. He is a versatile athlete with a varied and robust skill set. He is our focus in Storm Warning this week. Enjoy the feature. Friday Night Fletch.
