Re: Ironton's Program - History

The 78 team was probably the best ever to come out of Ironton and the strike in Logan that year (1978) cost the Tigers dearly as they could not play their game......... I keep hearing this, but unless the points system has DRASTICALLY changed, I don't think it's true. Logan was going to be a very b...

Re: Ironton's Program - History

Kantucky. I am sure you know so asking for confirmation, I have heard several times that game was originally supposed to be played on Friday night (which was clear and sunny all day) and clairsville got the Ohsaa to change the date to Saturday night because of the travel on a school night. And the ...

Re: Ironton's Program - History

That would be a toughie. One team that many believe was the best ever was the 1978 undefeated team that didn't make the playoffs. That is WHEN Ironton started finding different opponents. It was WAY harder to make the playoffs back then. To get in with a few loses was unheard of. Not only did you h...

Re: Portsmouth (8-1) -vs- Ironton (8-1) OVC CROWN

Wow, the excitement for this game just continues to build! This is what makes HS football the best. I said a few weeks ago to some Ironton fans that we best not take Portsmouth lightly. These, ordinarily savvy gentlemen, quickly dismissed my comment and returned to their conversation about the Gall...

Re: Ironton and the OVC

if you read this carefully, manynof the “leave ovc” posts are coming from folks who are wishing they would go.

OVC is the only fit for Ironton right now. I still think growth of the conference is what I want.

Exactly what I expected to read , we don't have a chance , read the exact same post two years in a row now. Love the underdog role, no matter what happens our kids will play hard like always and never quit , I'm just hoping we don't spot ironti 21 this year you will blame refs no matter what. just ...

Re: Portsmouth (8-1) -vs- Ironton (8-1) OVC CROWN

Portsmouth will have their hands full in this one. Ironton dismantled Gallia, Gallia pretty much handled Portsmouth for the final 2 quarter of that game. Makes me wonder what Ironton will do to Portsmouth. That being said, the Trojans have beat the Tigers the last 2 seasons. Portsmouth will have to...

Re: Gallia Academy 0 - 52 Ironton

Gallia Academy is the biggest school D-IV playing in a smaller conference. They play most V’s and 1, VI. All the teams they played have losing records except for Portsmouth and Ironton which they went 1-1. They are 4th or 5th in their region being undefeated until last night. I believe they need to...

Re: Gallia Academy 0 - 52 Ironton

Ironton, if OVC is so bad please just take your transfers and go play somewhere else. The OVC doesn't need you, I think you need them. your AD would disagree. Ironton easily bringing in an additional $5000 in to their coffers every other year. i’m an ironton guy. I don’t want out of the league. i’d...

Re: G.O.W. WK9 Ironton @ Gallia Academy (OVC Chip)

Don’t act like Ironton dominated the SEOAL. I’m pretty sure Logan has their way with them. Am I wrong? very wrong. ironton dominated logan in football while a member of the seoal Depends how old you are. The last time Ironton was in the SEOAL Logan went 4-0 against the Tigers. In those games Logan ...

theoretically yes. however, for a guy who was agonizing over who to pick gallia or ironton, you got to think that’s unlikely

Re: Ironton and the OVC

ironton played for multiple state titles in a league that was terrible football wise.... the seoal. the key is to play great non conference schedule. by the way, where would ironton go? will burg leave the soc? will gallia and portsmouth leave ovc?

ironton needs to actually win the league a few

Re: Ironton and the OVC

Ironton picked up 9 starters or the league would be a good fit! They have players all over the tri-state that came in and started this year. How many times has Ironton won the OVC? come on 14u you are better than this post. Jones, Howell and Book the kicker are only transfers that start this year. ...

It was the night Gallia academy broke irontons streak. Over the years Gallia academy has had a lot of great teams find a way to lose to ir...
