I’ve always liked Barnes at Ironton. He’s had a lot of success at South Point, St Joe and now his second stent at Ironton. Also, staying in the OVC, you cannot doubt what Speed has done at Fairland. South Points coach is also solid. Vanderhoof always seems to get the best out of his kids and Coal Gr...

What I think needs to take place for a SEO team to get to “that level” is to not vilify Ironton and Wheelersburg. Maybe take a page out of their book. Personally speaking, I think it’s ridiculous that certain individual(s) made Ironton go independent in football instead of see that as a bar to achie...

School bd member told me an asset coach told the team at halftime they were playing like a bunch of 9u33ies. This specific person had a grandson on the team that took offense to that statement and told his mom. May have been other strikes but this individuals axe to grind was based upon that one st...

In May 2017, Coal Grove hired a head football coach who was in his early-mid-20s, and six months later they were playing for a regional championship. Gallia's coach who just left was 24 when he was hired and has an outstanding record that landed him a Division I HS job. Everyone has to start somewhe...

Congratulations, certain parents. You probably just set the football program back five years.

Coal Grove cannot catch a break. Pretty sure they come back from North Carolina sitting at 0-8. Most games have been relatively close (including the overtime game against Ironton). Probably the best winless team in southern Ohio.

Coincidence? That two men share the same last name, coming from the same small area, chances are they’re related somewhere in the family tree. Point of reference is Irwin sister is not married to the Lester that was offered the job. Coach Irwin may or may not be on staff, but it won’t be because he...

I feel 7 is too much. I think expanding to 5 would be fine. There could even be an argument for 6, but I think 5 is fair.

Throwing a name out there, but what about Trey Wilds? Hadn’t he been an assistant there for a while? He definitely has the conditioning background as he’s won three straight OVC track championships at Rock Hill. I’d say he’s in his early 30’s so he may be in for the long haul.

Went to the Rock Hill/Coal Grove game tonight. Rock Hill won 14-6, but I was very impressed on how well coached both teams are. Both teams defiantly have coaches who are preparing their kids for the future.

Good things happen when you have a successful softball coach as a superintendent, a successful football coach as the assistant superintendent, and a successful girls basketball coach as your high school principal. Once South Point made those three hires last year, I figured it would be a matter of t...

just wonder why I waste my time with this site anymore

PREACH!!!! Why the mods have allowed this nonsense to continue is beyond me. This is why I hardly ever get on this site anymore.

Not sure what is going on then. Only believe half of what you hear and 75% of what you see

Heard from a reliable source today that may not be football at Rock Hill this season due to low turnout. If true, that is really sad. However, would not be surprising. Unfortunately football is on the decline, and we will start seeing this in the future. What will be sad, if true, is one of the mos...

That's typically how it goes- Board does the hiring

Not sure if he's looking to coach again, but sure seems like it might be a great opportunity for both sides.

I feel like that would be a great hire, if said former coach was interested.

Honestly, just merge the SOC and OVC and split the groups into this geographically and athletically.

Any update on a successor?
