Jarrren Johnson has been lighting it up for the Union County Braves. The Junior dual-threat QB has proven more dangerous with his feet than his arm but his team is 7-0 and will be favored in its remaining three games so just keep doing what you’ve been doing playa! Enjoy the feature. FL.

@ArmonTucker from @TrinityHSFB is this week’s @1776Bank Revolutionary Player of the Week. @trinitysports @minguabeefjerky @PrepSpin @KyHighFootball

Trinity has before complained we don’t cover them sufficiently. We would beg to differ as we have feature quite a few of its primetime players through the years but we probably don’t write about Kentucky’s most talented roster as much as we could. Of course, we can’t just perpetually feature one team, unless their hiring. Anyway, this kid here will play big-time, college football because of his speed, regardless of what he does or doesn’t do on the football field. Good thing he is good on the football field too. Enjoy the feature and join us next week as we award this to another worthy player. HB.

Here is how we see Class 5A fleshing out. If we didn’t pick your team and you see a district opponent listed among our top-5, that means we don’t think you see round three. Let the water-cooler debates commence. HB.

References to a lunchpail date back to 1890 by most accounts. It was a way for regular working men (not many women worked outside the home in the 1890s) to carry hot food with them to their blue-collar jobs. A blue-collar worker has always denoted one who performs manual labor. […]

Crittenden County’s Ethan Dossett is a cool customer

Quick, which receiver in Kentucky led his classification in 2017 in number of receptions and yards receiving? This same receiver was tied for third in the classification in TD receptions in 2017 and fourth in the classification for TD receptions per game. Obviously, by virtue of the title of this […]
