A Tale of Two Brothers, Gough (@AGLOADING26) and Long (@williammlong) Score Offers on the Same Day

April 21, 2020 Henry Lyon 0

These two guys have been the best of friends, brothers really, since first meeting playing FBU football for Team Kentucky Elite in 7th grade. Since that time, the two of them have been the standard at their respective positions in Kentucky middle and high school football. Yesterday, the two of them garnered prestigious football offers on the same day. They were the first two features we pinned when first coming online on March 30, 2017. Over three years later, there is still so much to be said about them. HB.

KPGFootball’s take on the preseason Top-30 offensive linemen list

April 1, 2020 Henry Lyon 0

Every list ever published extolling the ability of any body of people have had people undervalued on the list, people overvalued on the list, and people glaringly omitted. No list is perfect. BoyleCo has done yeoman’s work here, and while we may not agree with the order, we can’t argue with any of the thirty he listed. We can and will give our opinion…and here it is. Enjoy the article.

Just to give you an idea the role Kentucky Prep Gridiron plays in the promotion of the kids we cover, we thought it would be neat to look at this year’s AP All-State Football Team and see just how many of them have, either formerly or presently, make one of our All-State Teams. The results were illuminating. HB.

Rivals Dave tweeted out that he treats information sent him about Appalachia Mountain, Kentucky football players as “spam.” Well, we disagree with Rivals. We think there are fine football players all over the mountains. The USAF Academy agrees with us and was in the mountains last night to scout some 2021s and check in with its 2020 signee, Grayson Cook. Who did the Falcons evaluate? We have the “who’s” and the “why’s” in this article.

Our opinion of the Coaches’ All-State Football team? We offer the following friendly amendments!

No team gets them all. The Coaches’ All-State Football team was just announced and it was a fine one with every player we saw deserving of selection. Still, we feel they undervalued some of the players and missed on some others. So here are our “friendly amendments and additiions” to the Coaches’ team. The media team will be out before you know it and I am pretty sure we will screw the pooch in the eye of many when it is our time to draw the fire. HB.
