Re: 2018 Ironton Head football coach

If a former player is a graduate assistant at a university then the head coach obviously thought enough of their potential as a coach to let them be a graduate assistant. And if this were the case it's hard to believe they would have to relocate to Ironton Ohio just to be an assistant on a high scho...

Re: 2018 Ironton Head football coach

Wow Ironton is in disarray. You got the old Ironton castoffs volunteering their buddies as assistant coaches. We have young coaches who are Graduate Assistants at colleges gonna quit and relocate to this poverty stricken area without teaching jobs and head coaches quit their current positions with n...

Re: Wheelersburg vs harvest prep

The recruiting stuff in my opinion happens. Probably at alot of schools throughout the state. But I do know a coach on the Wheelersburg staff and he has a difficult time not bragging about some of their successes on and off the field. Let's just leave it at that

Re: SOC I and SOC II predictions for 2018-19

ND will miss Lexi Smith. She was tough. ND's center is good, but it will be easier to double the post without the other low post player. The health of the point guard will be a huge factor also.

Re: Wheelersburg vs harvest prep

I'll just say that there are alot of people who will disagree with that statement. Even been some examples mentioned in this thread. Wheelersburg image does a lot of recruiting itself, no doubt. But to say your program doesn't recruit is like saying improper benefits does not exist at the college l...

Re: SOC I and SOC II predictions for 2018-19

Next year the SOCII should be very competitive top to bottom. Probably no great teams, but just about anyone can beat anyone.

Re: 2018 Ironton Head football coach

Pendleton would probably do a good job if given the time. But they aren't gonna give time. It has to be a quick turn around. Looks like he has quite a business going on training kids and adults. Supposedly he's also made quite a commitment with a new building and stuff. Would be really hard to give...

Re: Wheelersburg vs harvest prep

If Burg would have had 30 transfers on the team wouldn’t that have more than likely put them in DIV? It would. With true transfers, those kids would be worth 2 instead of 1 and they would have a much higher # than 30. Wheelersburgs total enrollment is 205. That is 6 from Division 4. It matters when...

Re: Wheelersburg vs harvest prep

I'm not sure what his motivation is, but his claims do seem to be backed up by numbers. If 30 players on Wheelersburgs football team do not live in the district that is a significant number no matter when they started school there. Most teams on Wheelersburgs schedule barely have 50 on a team

Re: 2018 Ironton Head football coach

Curious if the Hammer Lutz who's coaching at Rock Hill applied? He has deep roots in the Ironton program. Uncle is Bob Lutz. He played at Ironton. He's at a rival school in the same conference as Ironton. With his name he would get somewhat of a pass till he could build. If he's not interested that ...

Re: 2018 Ironton Head football coach

Just a thought. Coach Triplett coached in a bad situation. "Fans and alumni" never gave him a chance. People\parents were screaming from the fences disparaging remarks,telling kids not to listen. That said,I thought Coach Triplett did a great job. They way they treated him was an utter em...

Re: 2018 Ironton Head football coach

Pendleton obviously knows football. But knowing football and coaching football is two different things, especially at a program like Ironton. If it's true that he has only been a position coach that is a huge jump. Head coach is a lot less coaching and more leading and organizing. A coach should at ...

Re: 2018 Ironton Head football coach

West's current coach was born and raised in the Columbus area. What happens if Pendleton is hired and soon the West job opens up? He has quite a business started down there working players out. Same with Kaskey Wheelersburg. Ironton isn't an easy job. Unrealistic expectations that noone can live up ...

Re: 2018 Defending State Champs Wheelersburg Pirates

Competitive Balance was created when Public Schools threatened to vote for split titles because Private schools were winning approximately 80% of the titles with a small percentage of schools. CB for private schools is more difficult to calculate based off of feeder schools. There are articles about...

Re: 2018 Defending State Champs Wheelersburg Pirates

There competitive balance number for basketball this year is a 6 which if you look at the D3 schools is pretty low. Also remember a tier 2 in basketball counts as 5 not 2 like football Competitive balance for this year only takes into account last year's roster so Truitt definitely doesn't count. I...
