Ryan Stratton is a big man causing big problems for opponents of the Bearcats

July 15, 2019 Henry Lyon 0

Anderson County has made the move from 5 to 4A. In Kentucky, the classification in which a team plays is meaningless as we have argued many times previously. Kentucky has good high school teams and bad high school teams and they are all over all 6 of its classifications. Still, Ryan Stratton is one of our top 2021 offensive centers. If you like them big, strong, and imposing, he’ll also be on your board of top players at the position. Enjoy this article about one of Anderson County’s largest Cats.

Grayson Cook pushes his announcement date to July 18

Grayson Cook, quietly and while many of us had diverted our attentions, pushed his commitment announcement from the 12th of July to the 18th. Should this be of concern to the team located in Colorado Springs, Colorado? Check out this article as we check in with 2020’s top OLB/DE prospect and what, if anything, his pushing his announcement to the 18th means for the Air Force Academy, or any other school pressing for a commitment from this prospect.

This week’s Independence Bank’s Revolutionary Player of the Week is McLean County’s Peyton Caraway, Class of 2020 RB

July 13, 2019 Fletcher Long 0

Congratulations to Peyton Caraway for being this week’s Independence Bank Revolutionary Player of the Week. This is a RB/MLB who appears to us to really enjoy playing football and whose role will expand in the absence of Cline, Baldwin, and Miller all being lost to graduation. When you gain 1,038 yards in only 95 carries, which works out to only 7.916 carries a game, you need to be getting the football more anyway. Join us next week for another selection.

East Robertsons’ Drake Alsup, C/O 2020, is this weeks Stewart Williams Company’s Robertson County Player of the Week

July 13, 2019 Fletcher Long 0

This Stewart Williams Company Robertson County Player of the Week is Drake Alsup a player we have before featured but not at the QB position. He is a big-time prospect at WR already sporting offers having to play QB this year to help the team as regular starter, Cameron Swift has been lost for the season. Sometimes the most important players on any team are the ones sufficiently versatile to play more than one place. That certainly sums up Drake well. Enjoy this article brought to you by the fine folks at your locally owned, hometown Stewart Williams Furniture Company. Don’t forget to stop by again next week as we crown another deserving recipient.

Davidson Academy’s Evan Kelley (c/o 2022) is this weeks Meeks and Meeks Montgomery County Player of the Week

Here is a Clarksville area prep player who has opted to play for a Nashville private school football power though he still resides in Clarksville, Tennessee. We have been extolling his virtues as a big-time QB prospect for years and everybody has been trying to make him a LB instead. Well going into his sophomore year it appears we knew about what we were talking this whole time. Enjoy this look at a player whose best football is ahead of him and we mean immediately ahead. Check back in with us next week as we recognize another, worthy, Montgomery County area player brought to you by your friends at the hometown, home-owned, Meeks & Meeks, Attorneys.

Part 3 of 3 of “wandering through the wasteland…” Predicted District Winners for the 2A and 1A Classifications…(Featured Photograph Brendon Miller, Bluegrass Sports Nation)

This is part three of our three-part series “Wandering through the wasteland…” Today we predict the district winners in Classes 2 and 1A. This concludes our series. I would mention Fletcher Long, formerly a writer here at KPGFootball and now working for Bluegrass Sports Nation called and said some coaches have taken strenuous exception to this analysis. To those offended, I am saddened you take offense. Still, we strive to be true to our craft and our opinion is just that…ours.

We have wandered through the abyss that is the KHSAA “Dead Period” and into the first day of real preparation for the 2019 season. We call this the “first day” as (for most high schools) June practice is volitional. There is nothing volitional about July practice. We will be hard […]

Dekel Crowdus, “…the best receiver I have ever seen…”

July 9, 2019 Henry Lyon 0

No matter what some key board assassin or self-described football “expert” may write (us included), real football players know each other when they see each other. That is why peer recognition will always mean more to a player than what some pundit may either write or think. As the old joke goes, “One can’t fool a nit-nat.” Everyone is on the Crowdus train and, truthfully, if he played in a locale more known for producing football talent, he would likely be a five-star and the top WR in the nation, where he may end up before it is all said and done anyway. Enjoy this article about a real player of the game and not just someone who can wow them at a combine. HB.

Logan Smith, Class of 2021, the reason why…

July 8, 2019 Henry Lyon 0

We love to scour the statistics and then glorify the skill players who compile them. Many of these skill players become our heroes, our kids’ heroes. We forget that Johnny QB or Johnny RB didn’t just run out on the field and run over the defensive 11, single-handily. Someone or 5 particular “someones” have to bust their butts for recognition from only the most knowledgeable few. We love offensive linemen at KPGFootball and Logan Smith is one of our favorites Kentucky-wide. Corbin is very good offensively and the Logan Smiths along its OL is why. Enjoy the article. HB
