Justin Haddix is a mountain legend. Much like Jay Cobb at Trinity, people from outside the mountains tend to forget from where Justin Haddix comes. The important thing is the former WKU QB-ing great hasn’t forgotten. As the Appalachians would be proud to claim, “Justin is one of ours.” Haddix has had a Hall of Fame run both as a player and coach. He still talks with the great Mike Holcomb regularly and the two of them run a QB camp together which convened on Joe MacDaniel field at Andy Frye stadium a year ago. Enjoy this look at a guy who, like Mark Spader, is a future Hall of Famer.

Friday Night Fletch.

Coach Holcomb is a quirky, unique guy who deflects praise and criticism like its the Covid or the “Monkey Pocks.” However, “Old Holc” as we call him around the magazine has gone and accomplished something we aren’t willing to ignore. Congratulations Coach, from your friends at KPGFootball.

Clay County has backed out of playing Breathitt County in the Honey Bowl this year. Don’t blame them, the Breathitt Bobcats are loaded and will have its strongest team in a number of years (we believe). South Laurel is close to finalizing the paperwork to come to “The Riverbank” and take on the Bobcats. The Cardinals, from Class 5A, District 8, would be a stern test for the Class 2A, District 7 home team. Here is a look at Coach Donnie Burdine’s Cardinals and how they project in 2019 and particularly as a Breathitt Honey Bowl opponent.
