Waverly could turn some heads if they can put together the pieces sooner rather than later in the season

I agree
I think many don’t expect much because of losing Howell and Co. but the Tigers return many key starters and components. QB is unproven so he’ll have to play smart and not make the big mistakes. I believe he has the potential of being a very good QB.

Wellston has some holes to fill. They have to replace both guards and a tackle on the offensive line. Their qb is a sophomore first year starter. And, they have to find a new tailback. Defensively 2 linebackers a cornerback and safety need replaced. With this being said these spots will be filled by players who are more than ready to step up.

What is shameful is that Ironton has gone from an "expected to be good" team to a "surprise if they are good" team. I hope the Pendleton era gets off to a good start. I am not expecting perfection overnite but incremental improvements would be much welcome. Attitude is the key.

He seems to have everyone excited again. If he works on the little things, the big things will take care of themselves.

Doesn't specify if it's surprisingly bad or good, so fire away if there's team you think is going to fall off the winning bandwagon.

Coached against this team for years, should have been 5+ wins every year for the past 5-6 years.

he's not gonna be another bob lutz but i do think he will improve the tigers and maybe in the next few yrs the burg - ironton series will be a good series again

N2Hoops what would make you surprised about Chesapeake? Just curious cause they have so many holes to fill. I'm just hoping for a .500 season, but don't see it happening.

The expectations for Pendleton at Ironton may have already been set to high before his first game. If he can instill discipline on the team and renew community and parental support, he will have had a successful first season. Wins, conference championships, and playoff appearances will follow in due time.
