Blake Evans from Bell County is one tough hombre. @BlakeEvans24 @_cameronburnett @ncsa @BellCountyFB @report_kentucky @minguabeefjerky @_CoachManning @evans02_mike @1776Bank @PrepSpin @kyhighs @HLpreps

Kory Combs (’25, Breathitt, LB/FB) and Blake Evans (’25, Bell County, LB/FB) appear to be friends. This would make perfect sense as the two of them are the best two LB’s in the Appalachia mountains in their graduating class. We have featured Combs many times. We are long overdue featuring this guy. FL.

These guys are our ’22 Kentucky HS All-State defense. Some of these guys are highly and nationally rated and others are just darn-fine, high school football players. Regardless, they all seem to be very good players, and no-doubt all-staters, to us. Enjoy the feature. HB.

Oscar ‘JT’ Adams from Paducah Tilghman, ’23 MLB, should generate plenty of interest. @minguabeefjerky @PrepSpin @KyHighFootball @OCathFootball @MaxPreps @HLpreps @kyhighs @1776Bank @PTBlueTornado @PTHS_fan @coachthomp9 @CentreFootball

Football is a tall man’s game, huh? Well we know some players throughout and around Kentucky who may beg to differ. JT Adams is as tough as they come at the MLB position for Paducah’s Blue Tornado. The senior will leave his mark on most of Kentucky before this ride is finished. Enjoy the feature. HB.

In the Running…lots of performances from around Kentucky viable candidates for this week’s @minguabeefjerky ‘Protein-packed Performer’ award. @1776Bank @KyHighFootball @MaxPreps @PrepSpin

There were some exceptional performances around the commonwealth of Kentucky which will make the selection of a Mingua Beef Jerky “Protein-packed Performer” especially challenging this week. Any of the performances listed in this article could win it. All of these players have been nominated. Enjoy this look at what we found particularly noteworthy from the Kentucky high school gridiron this past weekend. HB.

Sometimes we forget that not every kid comes in and slides straight into the Friday night lineup as a freshman. This is especially true at the 5A level of football in Kentucky. However, by year’s end we saw more and more of JT Adams patrolling the Colonel defense’s second level. Get ready, you will certainly see way more of that this year out of a kid we have consistently ranked among the top 2-3, 2023 LBs. Enjoy the article. HB.

The Class of 2023, Kentucky’s “Freshman Fifteen…”

June 25, 2019 Henry Lyon 0

This is part one of a two part series we are calling the “Freshman Fifteen.” These aren’t necessarily the best fifteen football players or prospects in Kentucky but they are fifteen players we believe most likely to play before the 2019 season is over in the varsity lineup. Some will play because the team has specific need where they are slotted and some will play because they are just that good. Join us tomorrow as we finish with the final seven but, for now, enjoy this article about the first 8 of the “Freshman Fifteen.”

Team Kentucky’s Carson Wright; Is he 2023’s very best LB in the commonwealth? Maybe…

May 16, 2019 Henry Lyon 0

There is an ongoing debate in Kentucky as to whether Carson Wright or Oscar “JT” Adams is the very best LB in Kentucky in the Class of 2023. Well, old Coach Lyon isn’t sure he can resolve that debate for you other than to say both teams set to add either to its roster this coming Fall is mighty fortunate. Today we will spill some more ink over Carson Wright and are equally sure we will come back and spill ink on JT Adams on down the road. Both of these young men, in Team Kentucky’s defensive second level, spell trouble for Tennessee’s intermediate passing game or its run from scrimmage hopes (for that matter), that is for sure.
