Storm Warning: Connor Miles (’28 two-way lineman) is a man with many talents, many skills and entering the season healthy @HopkinsCentral, @_CoachManning, @minguabeefjerky, @bigassfans, @khsaafootball, @KyHighFootball

The high school game is a game where we don’t see a ton of 6’5,” 225-pound lineman, but we are generally excited when we do. This is a kid who excelled, this offseason, at powerlifting and that is generally a very good sign. It is the game for the “Chapter 16” type kids and some of your more traditional types; the Football Playing Jesses out there. If these referenced are unfamiliar to you, you need to read Sam Harp and my book, “Football 101: Boo-Boo’s a Quarterback.” There is a link at the bottom of this article, will take you right to where you can order. It is just $9.99 on “Kindle,” best ten bucks you will ever spend. Connor Miles will help anchor the Storm front this coming year. He appears well equipped to handle the assignment. Enjoy the feature.

Gavin Johnson and Mikey Hager are simply two of the best all-around football players in the KHSAA regardless of classification. These two guys will meet on October 25, 2025 in Hazard, Kentucky and there figures to be plenty on the line. Enjoy this look at two guys who have both worked tirelessly and who appear peerless (except for the other) in their district, their region, even their classification.

Carson Bugg has been blessed by nature. He has the length major college coaches covet and the height and mass preferred for where he projects. Can’t get much better than that in life, huh? Yessir, it certainly is a “Bugg’s life,” this game of football. Come and read this feature about one of the more imposing linemen playing high school football today in the commonwealth of Kentucky. Enjoy this feature on a kid very deserving of some of the world’s finest beef jerky products and don’t forget to #SavorTheFlavor out there in Versailles, KY.

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.
Friday Night Fletch.

I got a call one time from a kid who had signed with Princeton. Princeton, like Brown, is an Ivy League school, or the elite of the elite as this country has historically thought of the Ivy League. Well anyway this kid was voicing some displeasure about Princeton’s having a bad season. My response…”Are you kidding me, son? You’re going to Princeton. Who cares if you go 0-40 while there? You’re still getting a degree from Princeton.” You get the point. Football is a tool to a better life if you’re smart about it. Enjoy this feature about Kentucky’s most lethal edge threat and how he has scored a major win.
