Not because this Pendleton is a bad guy, I personally don’t know him. But playing fullback at Michigan State isn’t the same as coaching, assembling and managing a staff, setting schedules , dealing with parents, etc.

Lots of guys play college ball, that doesn’t make them experts or head coach at Ironton material. It just means exactly what it is.... they played college ball.
I agree.

I think it would be a mistake to hire someone that's never been a coach before.

Don’t hate . Just go with it . Wait till you see what he does this year. Jealousy doesn’t get any body anywhere.

I'm happy for Coal Grove. Rock Hill too. They gave young coaches an opportunity and they took it and ran with it. I wish them nothing but continued success

The whole problem with Ironton sports right now . You can’t win with anyone..?execpt with what the big timer wants. You all need a reality check. Stop voting for people with no balls at all . . And that’s a fact !! It been proven in the last two months

As to the Ironton situation itself, whoever 'recommended' this guy looks like a clown now too.. If that's LaFon and the Principal, well, you failed miserable. Now you have to try to patch even more wounds.
Great post! I'm sure they knew going in this would happen. Probably why they recommended them. Bravo!

I thought you were responding to Pendleton not having coaching experience. To my knowledge Cg last 2 hires had no experience obviously the latest had great success even after losing 5 great skill players from previous yr. My opinion CG doesn’t have the year they had if other coach doesn’t walk away. He went around 500 with arguably the top 4-5 skill players in ovc. They graduate and a zero experience coach (head coaching) takes over and rest is history.

In retrospect, could it be said that non-renewing Vass for the coaching job (at least this off-season) was an act of cutting the nose to spite the face?

I personally think Pendleton would bring back the spunk again.. he’s been coached by one of the best. If you think changes are not good then you’re to old and prolly the problem. Just saying!!

I agree.

Y'all are aware this isn't the Ironton of old that many feared to play and demanded respect, this version of Ironton is becoming the a circus and a joke with all of this going on. You have spent months since October trying to figure out if your going to keep Vass or let him go, in the mean time you are losing players it seems every week because there is no direction to lead them, then players who want to improve go out and work on Sundays just for some on here to bitch and moan about how they shouldn't be doing it especially on Sunday, now you hired a coach who the very next morning looked at your program and spit in it's face by declining to take the job after going through with the interview process. To now you say Pendleton is worthy enough to be the head coach of Ironton. What does it take to be worthy of Irontons head coach? Because whatever it is you sure ain't going to get it now . You just better hope you can find someone who will take over this enormous dumpster fire( now a wild fire) before actual football season starts or before you lose all your players.

Amateur hour in Ironton. You don't offer the job unless you know the candidate will for sure accept...especially not to a guy who has pulled this stunt before!! Doesn't matter who they hire now....fans and kids will be discounting the hire as their Plan B and not buying in from the start.*
