Every week, in addition to our own show (Friday Night, Kentucky) we guest appear on the popular, YouTube podcast, Cleats 2 Whistle. These guys have a segment called “Pick Six” where they set out six big games and invite comment from the dais. We are on the dais. We have picked Raceland at Pikeville. After putting the matter to our editorial board, this is what we have to say on the matter. Enjoy this analysis.

If you are familiar with my book I co-authored with Sam Harp, “Football 101: Boo-Boo’s a Quarterback” you know there are “Dudes” in football and there are “Busters.” Well, this guy here is a “Dude,” through and through. Raceland High is among the very best programs, KY-wide, at its level of play and have made numerous title game appearances. They haven’t broken through yet, but that day is coming. Enjoy the article.

Friday Night Fletch.

Bryson Rowley very quietly inserted himself in ’23 into the best football player in the Kentucky ’26 graduating class. The 6,’ 175-pounder excelled at both WR and DB for the Rams who took another shot at a 1A title, though came up a bit short. The Rams were laden with senior talent so how good will Coach Salmons crew be this Fall is anyone’s guess. But Hey! It is Raceland. Enjoy this feature and and don’t forget to #SavorTheFlavor of the country’s very finest beef jerky products. Friday Night Fletch.

We highlight two from each class, or more,… We are coming down to the end of the regular season and teams are jockeying for playoff position, and for some, inclusion. Our very own “Friday Night Fletch,” the resident middle and high school football expert in Kentucky breaks down the compelling […]

This guy won this award back in March of ’22. It was largely owing to the performance he rendered over his sophomore season. Well, he took it up a notch over his junior year and quite impressively. Sometimes we award this more than once to a single player. This is one of those times. Enjoy this feature and don’t forget to take the time to #savortheflavor. HB.

Blake Birchfield, ’23 RB, From Pikeville High put on quite the show in the 1A Championship win over Raceland. @LippertScouting @1776Bank @minguabeefjerky @PrepSpin @KyHighFootball @kyhighs @HLpreps @MaxPreps @BryanAult @PikevilleHSFB @Blakebirchfiels

This guy was just featured not long ago. Matter of fact, we believe he was the ‘Protein-packed Performer of the Week’ for Mingua Beef Jerky on November 23, 2022. Not even we could have forecast the performance he would provide on Kroger Field against Raceland. Enjoy the feature. HB.

Talk about a young player already turning some heads, what about this QB playing for Raceland who is a ’24 and has just completed his sophomore season. If you read this feature, it will be apparent how this guy won the country finest beef jerky. Join us again a week from today when some other lucky Kentucky middle or high school player gets awarded the finest beef jerky on the market. HB.

As scrimmages conclude, and the season looms, how much significance should we apportion any scrimmage outcome? (Featured Photograph: Emily Ball/Bluefield Daily Telegraph)

Scrimmage results are flying across chat rooms, newspaper headlines, and blogs all over the commonwealth of Kentucky. The winners believe it is a credible forecast of success, the losers either believe the team was trying to “not show too much” or it is a forecast of a forthcoming “long year.” Well, truthfully, neither is true. Enjoy this article about scrimmages and why the outcome shouldn’t either dampen or intensify your seasonal expectations.
