Welcome to BGP @Adam Goodaker!

4 star OT Jarvis Strickland (Class of 2026) has committed to Kentucky. He's the # 1 rated tackle in the state and I believe in the top 20 nationally for offensive tackles. 

I saw him prepping in the gym I go to this last season and he was going from that young guy to developing that mean streak you need for the position. He's good in run and pass blocking both. 

Who will be the new offensive coordinator this year?

PT was unworldy last year with a talented 5th year QB, SEC level tranfers, and a senior class for the ages. I obviously don't expect them to be on that level again but that doesn't mean they aren't in the hunt for a championship. I think they will go from arguably the best team in the state to a really good Western Ky team. They will still win the district and will still probably win 9 or 10 regular season games. I am not sure about a State title but it is certainly possible.

Good chance for a undefeated regular season. They will be better then most people expect.

I absolutely expect PT to compete for another state title !

Just picked up Cam Wade 2027 WR from East Nashville HS. Has offers from LSU and UT.

Looks like there is a receiver, player named Cam Wade who plays for East Nashville and has several offers from several schools. Looks like someone is saying on X that he will be transferring to PT.  Also there is a post where he is on the Junior Olympic track and field team.

Bump.

I was a little surprised to see PT at #6 in the last 4A poll that I looked at - but when you see who the Top 5 are it makes some sense.  
Initially I was concerned about the Tornado losing their top 5 pass catchers.  I’ve come around and I’m going to list PT’s Top 7 (yes 7!) WRs.   This is in alphabetical order and NOT a ranking:

-Jaron Anderson - had nearly 700 yards receiving last year…for Ballard Memorial.  He’s back with the Tornado.

-Brendan Brown - I have heard he has some pretty high-level offers but admittedly I haven’t seen him a lot.  Injuries hurt his Soph season and he didn’t crack the starting rotation last year.

-Chance McPike - also has some very good offers.   Transfer from the St. Louis area.  He may feature more at DB. 
-Jemmarrion Purdiman. Excellent athlete and also a solid b-ball player.  9th on the team last year in receiving yards.  
-Blair Sains.  Another outstanding yards who racked up lots of yards from scrimmage last year behind center for the Bombers.  
-Avery Thompson. Was 6th last year in receiving and missed a few games due to a broken foot.  He has offers from UK, Wisconsin and several others. If you asked me who I would predict would lead the team in catches - it would be Thompson.

Cam Wade.  Most likely the speediest of all.  Has offers from LSU and Tennessee. Transferred from the Nashville area.  
 

There are others too!  PT is going to score a boatload of points again this year!  How are they going to be on the other side of the ball?  I don’t know much about their D Line.   

Paducah will be too much for anyone around here and with good QB play could go undefeated and win another state title...the receiving squad is LOADED.

Tony Franklin, they'll pay him to cover that in the big games. Million dollar talent, 10 cent coaching.

Good luck to the Franklin County fliers this year,it seems their feathers are ruffled!

Any word on how the scrimmage with Hopkinsville went last night?
