I would have suspected HHS would suffer a winless season if you would have told me, at the beginning of the year, the following things: 1. HHS was going to play the season without it’s senior QB who had, for the two immediate previous seasons, been District Player of the Year […]
I wrote a 5 part series entitled Plug-In Players in which I detailed freshmen either starting or playing enough on Friday Night to insure the player would likely earn a Varsity Letter. More and more people are coming up through the Middle School ranks and getting plugged into lineups and significantly […]
Today at the Stadium of Champions beginning at 3:00 p.m., in what has been forecast to be perfect weather, the game originally contracted to be played last night will get underway. It is a pivotal game for each team going forward though it has zero play-off implications for either. […]
Two area Middle School football players have been initially released on the Bret Cooper Junior All-American Game Watch List. This signifies the players have been identified by the selection committee as players the committee will monitor going forward to determine whether their ability and scholastic achievement are sufficiently excellent to warrant […]

This is our final installment (Part 5) of our series on Plug-In Players. I know we have been over this before but the criteria to be considered a true Plug In Player is a freshman player (2021) who is either starting, week one, or almost certain to start by year’s end, meaning […]
I was taking Seth Henderson to the Team Kentucky Future Stars combine in Bowling Green, Kentucky the summer before last. He had played guard and DT for me in 8th grade at HMS and I was concerned he wouldn’t pass the eye test sufficiently to make the Kentucky team at either […]
I am pretty sure when Ricco Hughes (Kentucky Future Stars Director) and Josh Jones (Ricco’s Tennessee counterpart) first got their respective heads together and finalized the concept of pitting the elite Middle School players from Kentucky and Tennessee against each other annually, while they knew it would be quite […]
