Re: An Early Look at the SEOAL: The 2008 Ironton Fighting Tigers

hammerdown your starting to sound like some friends of mine did back in 01 when West played at Ironton the first week of the playoffs. They told me that they watched Ironton on tape and they didn't look that good. I thought man you never played against them that's for sure. That boring looking offen...

Re: Portsmouth West Football

I've heard we scrimmage Gallia Academy away this year. Should give us a good look.

We have a passing scrimmage saturday at Nelsonville York. Hope we look good. Heard alot of good things and a bunch of optimism. I think we're gonna have a breakout year.

Re: Portsmouth West Football

I've haven't heard anything negative. All has been pretty positive. I know they have been a bit dissapointed that a couple seniors haven't been in to lift. From the people and players I've talked to, things seem to be going good. If this was true and a player or players doesn't want to play and thei...

Re: WEST BASKETBALL

Talked to a guy whom I respect at Greenup about him. He said he is a young and he was as a very good player in High School. My friend used to play golf with him and he said that he's a good guy. He took over as head coach when the stuff came out at Greenup a couple years ago. As for his coaching abi...

Re: Best High School Football Coach In Northeast Ky Southeast Oh

Lutz is the best in this area. Its not the scheme, it's the belief and confidence that his team plays with that impresses me. They're fundamentally sound, they play to beat you as bad as they can, and they never give up (like the Bellaire playoff game a couple years ago). If I could pick a coach for...

Re: Who will have a good freshman team this year?

Portsmouth West will have an excellent freshman class. Really big line, some really good speed and a good QB. They beat Burg pretty bad last year.

Re: who will be the best teams in d-4 region-15(heres last yr)

Didn't Rock Hill graduate most of their playmakers? I think they play Burg this year also. I think they'll struggle a little. Portsmouth lost a ton too. Westfall lost a lot, but they have a great program. I think them, Ironton, Martins Ferry, and Amanda will finish 1-4 in points.

Re: Who Will Win The Soc II In 2008?????

West has won 2 out of the last 3 and 3 out of the the last 6 versus Portsmouth, and we'll probably be favored this year. We can play with Portsmouth. We've only beaten Ironton once in our history, but the last few games were competitive. They wore us down in the second half. Tripplett's weight progr...

Re: WEST BASKETBALL

I try to be positive. But Phillips is not qualified to be head coach. If he gets that job, which he may since his brother is on the board, that would be a disaster waiting to happen. Just look back at the events of the girls season.

Re: linebackers

Not too shabby numbers for a fullback. The kid's gonna be a beast. Didn't he break his leg in 7th grade? It seemed like after that he gained too much weight it is just now getting back to a good playing weight. Our competition is gonna have a time trying to stop him, Swords, and Murphy in our 3 back...

Re: linebackers

I watched him in junior high and watchd him play last year to, and I highly doubt that he runs a 4.6 forty, and know for a fact he will not lead the league for the next three years, and will not lead rushing 2 out of the 3 years. What about Bryan White that kid is going to be crazy this coming seas...

Re: Who Will Win The Soc II In 2008?????

Wheelersburg has been very successful in the last thirty years or so, that it for sure. And they most definitely dominated the 90's. The last 8 years they've been very successful, but they haven't dominated. West has 3 titles. Minford has a couple. Waverly had a great team in 01 and lost to West. Th...

For a 15 yr old to squat that much is rediculously hard to believe...even if it is true why have none of us heard of this kid before?

Re: WEST BASKETBALL

My opinion is yes they were talented but they never totally meshed as a team. Its always seemed to me that West players are more like street ballers than basketball players because they aren't learning the fundamentals at an early age. Play Zone or straight man-to-man against us and were fine. Press...
