Storm Warning: Central still getting used to that new car smell…

August 22, 2024 Fletcher Long 0

The final preseason tune-up bode well for the near future as the Storm went 4-0 in varsity and JV scrimmages in a three team round robin including Russellville and Ohio County. We will break down the action from that outing and see if we can’t read the tea leaves regarding the upcoming future. Enjoy this feature.

Deven Leclercq from Southwestern High rising to the top of the Bigs in his class @JasonFoley22 @jherron_5 @Southwestern_FB @12thSports @CoachRenoYale @CoachJanecek

Deven Leclercq from Southwestern High is a lineman about whom we warned you this time last year. He was coming off an impressive freshman campaign and entering his sophomore season among the very best the class of ’26 had to offer. A year later, he hasn’t done anything to dampen our enthusiasm about his next level prospects. Enjoy the feature.

Gray Schmittel, from North Oldham, taking versatility to the extreme @gray_schmittel, @NOHSFball, @BDRoberts20, @AlPopsFootball

We have been focusing on versatility this offseason. We can’t think of a more versatile specimen than a guy who successfully stars in three varsity sports. This guy is ranked among the Derby City’s very best and is already sporting an offer to play at DePauw in Indiana. We love the Monon Bell Classic. Just thought we would throw that in there.

Preseason scrimmages: What do they mean? What do they tell us? @KyHighFootball @AlPopsFootball

We used to say when I was in the law game that nobody knows all the answers but that a wise man knows where the answers may be found. When I need perspective I have a text group I consult. These guys are either already in the KHSAA Hall of Fame or headed there immediately upon becoming eligible. I got a couple to weigh-in on the relative importance of preseason scrimmages and this is what the two gentlemen had to offer. Friday Night Fletch.

Scouting Report: Russellville Next Scrimmage Up Before Season Starts; Transfer Rumors[?]

We are steamrolling into the season opener on August 23rd. There is still the matter of a scrimmage against the Russellville Panthers. The Panthers were an extremely young, inexperienced team a year ago. These guys are always athletic and the added experience should indicate a different Panther squad than the one we saw limp to a 2-9 finish in 2023. Enjoy this “scouting report.” Friday Night Fletch.

Cade Scott from Meade County is flipping the script for the Green Wave @bmofield2, @Cade_Scott06, @MeadeFB, @SportsConnectKY

Cade Scott is raring to go and improve on what his teammates and he did in ’23. The Green Wave were quick out of the gate, winning five of the first six, then faded down the stretch, losing one of its last games by a solitary point to Pleasure Ridge Park (Lou.). Scott is a 6’5,” 200 pound QB who can play LB (if need be) and punts. He is also a varsity B-Baller. Outside of all that, he is rounding into one of the more sought after athletes, KY-wide, in the 2026 graduating class. Enjoy the feature. Friday Night Fletch.
