Centre College goes down in Angola, IN and now must ‘turn things around’ for a trip to the Bluff City. @CentreFootball @minguabeefjerky @1776Bank

Well, the Colonels put together 4-Quarters on Saturday, just not the brand of 4-Quarter play Centre fans were hoping to see. Saturday we saw four entire quarters of offensive ineptitude. Trine was a tough out a year ago at home in Danville, Kentucky. This year, in Angola, Indiana, there were perfectly insurmountable. We have no time for idle sympathy as in-conference opponent Rhodes College is salivating waiting for our arrival in Memphis, Tennessee October 1. We better come loaded and ready for Lynx or it could turn into a second consecutive ‘long afternoon.’ HB.

Daniel Thomas from @BellCountyFB may be the most versatile Bobcat in the Bell County lair. @DanielThomas_4 @BoyGirls13th @minguabeefjerky @1776Bank @PrepSpin @KyHighFootball @MaxPreps @HLpreps @kyhighs

Hard to imagine a more versatile athlete on any high school football roster than Daniel Thomas from Bell County, Kentucky. Coach Hilton knows talent when he sees it and he knows how to deploy said talent. That is why he has won over 400-games as a high school football coach. Enjoy this look at a football and wrestling star in the Middlesboro, Kentucky area. HB.

A familiar refrain around the Tiger program for decades, ‘Better call Doc Long,’…well, now it may be the Hall of Fame doing the ‘calling.’ @minguabeefjerky @KyHighFootball @1776Bank @kyhighs

A lot goes into a high school football program’s being successful. You have to have coaching, administrators who care about the quality of the product, and medical personnel committed to keeping the athletic talent healthy and able to compete. Hoptown had that guy in its program somewhere around 20-years and for part of five separate coaching regimes. His name was Doctor Long. He was an institution unto itself on that sideline to coaches, players, and even referees. Enjoy the feature. HB.

Gavin Copenhaver is one tough hombre for CAL’s centurions. @minguabeefjerky @PrepSpin @1776Bank @KyHighFootball @kyhighs @HLpreps @MaxPreps @centurions_fb

Gavin Copenhaver has committed himself to leading his centurions back to the very top of the 3A classification. Copenhaver is certainly doing his part to help the centurions scale that competitive mountain clear to the tip-top. Enjoy this feature about a senior RB/LB who appears capable of doing it all and who also seems assured of being on a ton of recruiting boards going forward.

‘The Deuce is Loose’ and making all the right decisions… @Deucebailey1 @QBHitList @minguabeefjerky @kyhighs @HLpreps @PrepSpin @1776Bank @MaxPreps @KyHighFootball

Deuce Bailey is among the very best dual threat QB’s in all of the land, and we aren’t just talking about Kentucky. He has good size, tremendous athleticism, a fine, deft, and accurate arm, and even a 3.0 GPA. Yessir, that is called having all the tools. What will Deuce do against Boyle County this coming Friday? If the Purples want to stay in the ball game, the team better find a way to turn the Deuce loose out on that field and under the home field lights. Enjoy the feature. HB.

Markezz Hightower breathing rarified air for the Maroons. @MNHHS_Football @markezz_25 @minguabeefjerky @PrepSpin @1776Bank @kyhighs @HLpreps @MaxPreps @KyHighFootball

Marquezz Hightower is following in some mighty large footsteps. He had a relative who was an all-state football player for Madisonville North-Hopkins, led Kentucky in rushing yards his senior year, was a Kentucky Future Star MVP (like Marquezz), and went on to play for EKU. What will Marquezz do? Well, we don’t exactly know for sure but, for right now, he is running the heck out of that pill for the Maroons. Enjoy the feature. HB.

Demetrick Welch, Jr. is a ’24 prospect hoping his Thoroughbreds might hitch a ride to Lexington later this year. @NewCathAthletic @TBredsFB @LippertScouting @ai_metrick @minguabeefjerky @1776Bank @HLpreps @kyhighs @PrepSpin @KyHighFootball @MaxPreps

Newport Central Catholic are annually in the hunt for the 1A crown, or so it seems. Having talent on hand the likes of Demetrick Welch Jr. is a good place to begin any title trek. Enjoy this look at a player who played very well Thursday night for his team. HB.

Mountain Musical Chairs…mountain football prospects move from school to school. @kizer_slone @minguabeefjerky @PrepSpin @1776Bank @MaxPreps @EliteZoneShow @BGSportsNation @HLpreps

It is called Mountain Musical Chairs. Each year some of the mountain’s finest football talent moves from school to school. It is accepted, rarely bad-mouthed, and frankly just a way of life around the Appalachia region. Ask Belfry how many of its former superstar players were from over the West Virginia state line for instance. Well the three prospects pictured above, Kizer Alone, Landon Smith, and Ethan Combs, all played for Knott County a year ago. This year, zero for three…c’est la vie!

This week, our Protein-packed Performer is a head football coach, Middlesboro High’s Larry French! @minguabeefjerky @1776Bank @KyHighFootball @kyhighs @HLpreps @MBORO_FOOTBALL @barstoolmboro

We believe this is the first time we have awarded the Jerky Prize package to a head football coach. Well, it isn’t exactly everyday some head football coach celebrates his 350th win. There have only been two others in HS history in Kentucky to have had such a celebration, Phillip Haywood and Dudley Hilton. Enjoy this feature about a tremendous football coach who appears headed straight to the HOF.
