Murray High had a tremendous signal caller in 2025 who has moved on to the Murray State Racers and will now play on Saturdays. Still, Melvin Cunningham has built an enviable program while at Murray High and his Tigers figure to be in the title chase again in 2026. Lots of big-bodies on that Tiger roster. Lots of athletes on that Tiger roster. There is even a transfer from Dresden, TN who comes to town well thought of, successful, and much ballyhooed for his prior on-field successes. HIs name should be familiar to you. It is Bruce Willis, the same as the Hollywood “leading man,” Bruce Willis. This guy is a load, plays QB, lists MLB as his defensive position (which should tell the reader something of his demeanor and disposition), and is equally dangerous breaking down defenses with his arm or his legs. He ain’t going to juke you if you catch our drift. If you are going to tackle him, you better bring along your “Big Boy Britches.” Enjoy this look at this week’s Bank of Cadiz Featured Player.

Gavin Carwile, like cream, is a ’29 lineman rising to the top of his class… @CoachLandis22, @Coach_QBorders, @GavinCarwile, @StXTigersFB, @stxtigers, @bigassfans, @eCampusdotcom, @KHSAAFootball, @LasatersCoffee, #Kentuckys #fletcherwlong #LeadershipLegacy #CoachingExcellence #MentorshipMatters #characterbuilding #SportsLeadership #BuildingChampions #kentuckyfootball #highschoolfootball #DisciplineAndDedication #athletics #successmindset #bookstagram #booklovers

You will hear coaches say this over and over the longer you are around the game. You can teach hand position, feet, technique, punch, pad level, sink, but you can’t teach 6’6,” 310-pounds. That is God-given. Well Gavin Carwile, from St. Xavier High and entering his sophomore season, seems to have it all…the God-given and the earned skills which come from tireless effort and perpetual skills and technical effort and work. Enjoy this look at an OL of whom you might not have yet heard but one with the frame, skill, and technique to finish out among the more recruited players in the ’29 graduating class in the KHSAA. You’re welcome…

The Preseason Top Teams in the 5A Classification for 2026 @KHSAAFootball, @bigassfans, @eCampusdotcom, @LasatersCoffee, @KyHighFootball #Kentuckys #fletcherwlong #LeadershipLegacy #CoachingExcellence #MentorshipMatters #characterbuilding #SportsLeadership #BuildingChampions #kentuckyfootball #highschoolfootball #DisciplineAndDedication #athletics #successmindset #bookstagram #booklovers

Today we break down the 5A classification. Lots of people are going to pick Owensboro (Senior) and with good reason. They won it a year ago and, but for the loss of Evan Hampton, have a ton of talent returning. Of course, losing “Mr. Football” is kind of a big loss. We like Scott County. The Cardinals look to us to have it all. They have a lot of skills coming back, are very strong in the run game, and have one of the better athletes across the board playing in the KHSAA game today. They also have an amazing coaching staff loaded up with Hall of Fame types. Woodford County, Atherton, and Bowling Green will be heard from too and Pulaski and South Laurel better be watched. Enjoy the article.

It is time to break down the 2A classification and eCampus.com is as interested in this class as any other business entity in the commonwealth of KY. We picked LCA a year ago and people thought we were crazy. The Eagles return a ton of production and, all of a sudden, our prognosis doesn’t appear so far fetched. Beechwood welcomes back an all-time coaching legend to its sideline and also returns a strong Mr. Football candidate in Tyler Fryman. Owensboro Catholic, Belfry, and Breathitt all have stars, are very well coached, and figure to make a run. Enjoy this look at the 2A classification as we gear up toward the opener.

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. Lasaters, where you aren’t just served; you’re loved.

Friday Night Fletch.

The season is right around the corner and we are doing what we typically do every year. We are going through the classifications, 1A-6A, and breaking down how we see the coming year progressing. We study these type things, have analyzed coaching staffs, personnel changes, and other statistical data to arrive at an opinion which is far from a guess. Enjoy this look today at 3A, a classification one of our area high schools (Murray High) will likely figure prominently before the season is over. Thanks for your support and thank you to our friends, partners, and neighbors, the Bank of Cadiz & Trust Company.

It is part of our yearly ritual. Every year, between the end of “Dead Period” and the beginning of the season, we run down the six (6) Kentucky classifications and forecast, for you, the best teams from the top down. We have done similarly this year. Now, if you have read us for any period of time, we don’t just publish lists. Anyone can do that. What makes “KPGFootball” the industry standard, in football, is our analysis. We don’t just tell you who; but, we tell you why. Enjoy the article.

The season is right around the corner. Therefore, we will take the next six or so days to highlight for your the top teams in each classification of play throughout the KHSAA. Today, with a special thanks to our friends at Big Ass Fans, we look at the 1A classification. Pikeville and Raceland look to be the class of the classification with Holy Cross (Lou.) looking like it may make a tremendous stride over what it turned in last season (5-7). Enjoy this look at 1A.

We generally go back and republish some articles during the Dead Period. This is the last day of Dead Period and it is full throttle to the opener from here until opening weekend. We are excited about what has been a thrilling offseason. We have accomplished quite a lot this offseason not the least of which has been our publishing the most decorated and distributed book on the topic of Kentucky High School football in Kentucky history. We are very gratified about the book, “Kentucky’s All-Time, High School Football Coaches & A Few More I Liked,” as it has spent a considerable amount of time on the “Amazon” International “Best Sellers’s List” in the categories of “Football,” “Football Coaching,” and “Football Biographies.” Enjoy this flashback to one of our favorite former players. Let the battles begin…
