The guy did a nice job at SG.

You'll like what you are getting---if he's given a chance.

Intresting. Official announcement then early next week? Or Is this still speculation ??

[Sunoco]

I believe Mike Smith is the new HC.

Thats awesome for the Rockets and for Coach Smith if true. He will run a good program.

I'm looking forward to the 2019 season. A lot of good changes coming down the pike. Not the same old style anymore. It'll be nice to see the Golden Rockets at least trying to play modern age football.

Wellston, VC, Rv, Meigs, Alex, Ny, All should be improved this season compared to last. Athens may fall back to the pack after graduating 20+ seniors. This truly could be the most even TVC Ohio we’ve seen in quite some time.

I would have to agree

[countywide35]

Lots of coaching changes. TVC Ohio will be fun to follow with all trying to get their revamped staffs headed in the right direction.

[Reds Fan]

Good hire!

Do we know who his assistants are? Any Wellston guys?

As far as I've heard only 1 so far. And, he's not from Wellston.

Probably be like 2015. Every week was tough in the league

Coach Smith will do a good job-nice hire. I would say the one he has as an assistant will also do a good job.

Just a question about the current football field and stadium. When did Wellston start playing football at the current field or location? Just wonder since my Dad went to Wellston High School up until his senior year when Grandpa got transferred to Jeffersonville on the DT&I.

I would assume Wellston has played at CH Jones field since it was built sometime around the early 30’s.

Post above is correct. Wellston has played at CH Jones field since the stadium was built in the 30's, I would even go as far to say that with all the new stadiums going up that this has to be one of the oldest remaining that is in full time use across the state of Ohio. (Not sure if the old stadium in Portsmouth is still used?) Hearing rumblings of some BIG changes that could POSSIBLY happen but nothing for sure.
