’26 athlete is a ‘Jack of All Trades’
Isac Earl is a one-man band playing the midway at a county fair type football talent on Morton’s Gap. Earl led the team in passing, receiving, and scoring, while being among the leaders in rushing, tackles, TFLs, and FRs. Central got its season back on track a year ago when they moved Sylas Gunn to QB and freed up Isac Earl to play about everywhere else in the backfield, split out wide, or in the slot. Earl is a dynamic athlete who needs the ball in his hands.

Morton’s Gap, KY: You won’t see Isac Earl’s equal come through the Storm’s program anytime soon. That is why you better get out and enjoy him plenty this coming season, his senior year. Earl is such a good athlete, it is difficult to know just how to employ him oftentimes.
Last season, Earl passed for 690-yards and six (6) TDs. Earl rushed for 460-yards and seven (7) TDs. Earl caught 27-passes for 363-yards and another seven (7) TDs while scoring 92-points in 11-games.
Earl led the team in passing, scoring, and receiving. Earl was among the leaders in rushing, tackles, TFLs, and FRs. Add in a symbol and a snare drum and he could have been a “one man band” along the midway of a state fair somewhere.
Earl’s measurements are nothing about which to write home. Earl is 5’8,” weighs 165-pounds, clips off 40-yard dashes in 4.9-seconds, while broad jumping 8’9.”
While these numbers won’t make any college football scouts drool, at the end of the day Earl just makes freaking plays. I can remember a time when making plays accounted for quite a lot in the football world.
Earl can play QB, WR, slot, RB or defensive back. Earl bench presses 185, squats 220, and is seemingly always in the play, always around the football.

Isac Earl is just a darn fine athlete who may be faster padded up than running on a track in shorts and a shirt. Earl began the year at QB for the Storm. In the middle of the year, the coaching staff decided it would benefit from expanding the ways in which Earl got the football and his opportunities to do something extraordinary with it.
Earl didn’t disappoint. The Storm finished the year 4-7, but were two points shy of a victory at McLean and (unfortunately) ran into one of the hottest teams in 3A on the road in the first round of the playoffs. Along the way, the storm beat a good Fort Campbell team, smoked Webster County 29-0, and overcame a game Trigg County squad by five (5) points late in the year (October 18, 2024) on Morton’s Gap.
Earl has one more tour. He has another thing too; Earl has a penchant for making plays.
Guys who make plays…those are the guys who are the real athletes, not the stop-watch All-Americans. Then again, what do we know?
