I think the grovers are the only school enrollment size smaller than ironton now, ain't they. yes the black attack ran roughshod through the ovc last year. That's correct. CG is only a few competitive balance numbers from being division 7 yet they continue to compete at the top of the conference ev...

Coal Grove quietly going about their business but will be prepared to make some noise. By far the smallest school in the OVC but through the heart of the kids we always get solid results. Go Big Grove!

Those kids that left can easily come back. It is true he better watch his back, but it's a plus for him to have Triplett with him. He definitely knows who to watch out for. With what Pendleton has been through he'll be fine.get your staff together, be organized be confident and lead the way.they wi...

Heard we lost another player today , it’s getting ugly Your sources telling you it’s Pendleton getting the job. How reliable are your sources? What makes you think these kids are going to leave if they do hire him. They haven’t even had a chance to speak with him or hear his vision. I also don’t th...

More talent coming in to play with Loveday?

CGFAN#1: Height?......at Portsmouth, 6-3 is considered tall. We haven't had a player dominant in the paint since 6-5 Dion McKinley back in 2011 and 2012. The law of averages should be on our side. Since Dion, we haven't had a starter that tall. Going on 6 years now. Lol. OVC will be guard heavy. Ar...

Thanks Trojandave. Is was a really exciting year for the OVC and SOC. There are some nice returning players along with some impressive Freshman in the OVC that should make for a fun few years.
The only bad thing is where did all the height go (excluding Loveday)?

I understand Coal Grove graduated some talent but I cant foresee them being in the bottom 3 teams of the conference. Musick and Borders return, correct? Who else? How was the JV team? I agree CG will be more competitive but still hard to predict success after what they lost. I can't remember seeing...

I agree this is a Great rundown by Trojandave. I seem to remember your posts as being insightful and honest. I agree the rankings as being fluid is the thing to remember point in case with Trojans receiving a transfer as an example. I list below my best predictions albeit easily disputed. Aside from...

Proud of Coal Groves effort. Good Luck Peebles on your next game.

Looking forward to a Great game tonight. It would be easy to argue a winning outcome for either team. Both well deserved. Both teams considered by many to be the favorites to meet up at this point and they did. Both teams playing for the memories of being on this stage with nothing to lose. Wishing ...

Should be a good game. Both teams played solid competition all year. Seems both teams live on team defense however Coal Groves unselfish offense play will make it hard for SW to know who to defend. I predict Coal Grove 65 and SW 48. Go Big Grove!

Coal Grove 62 Miller 48. Go Big Grove!

Who has left?

Curious question from an outsider to Ironton. It seems like if Vass applies for the job he would be the most qualified internal candidate due to his overall body of work. That being said if the school board hires an outside candidate when Vass is qualified (assuming he applies) would Vass be able to...

Could be interesting now that the Manchester team is healthy. Think Coal Grove's team defense will be the difference. CG by 10.
Go Big Grove!

I don't see that it is fair to say that Ironton has talent issues as they are just guard heavy. Losing their height/rebounding to graduation and transfer(Ashland) is the biggest change. Although I see Lafon as an effective coach he plays the same style every year. This team needs to be more wide ope...

Hornet81, I'm on the staff! Who did he point finger at? I didn't see it. I think it was the athletic director. He was probably telling him Oak Hill would never play another game in that gym. If you can't have a fairly officiated contest why would you subject yourself to that when it's an out of lea...

Congrats on a Great win.
Fantastic team defense and rebounding. Selfless offensive play created great ball movement and many open shots.
Nice job by the Coaches as well.
Go Big Grove!
