Love this stuff... Write a bunch of gibberish, and bad mouth Athens, then turn around a congratulate them. Hard to believe your sincere
Is that why you want Logan to be accepted?moonshine wrote:Fact are fact they have won almost all sport championships since joining the TVC Ohio!G.W.A. wrote:Somebody is jealousmoonshine wrote:The bullpuppies are going to build a special TVC Trophy room for all the hardware they will win in all sports in the TVC which they will forever dominate!
The only problem with that theory is Nelsonville-York is the ONLY D6 team in the Ohio. Athens and VC are in the same region. Meigs is only 1 division behind (and early projections show Athens could be a DIV as early as next year when the new divisional alignment comes out). The rest of the Ohio is DV. Now, take a program like NY, which is designated D6 because of enrollment - but their success on the gridiron makes them more than a D6 team. Marion Local is D7 - but lets face it - they are no D7 team/program. Every school, ever team needs to be looked at and evaluated differently and you can't just go off enrollment alone. (which is why competitive balance issues are consistently being brought to the OHSAA to try and pass every year). Marietta is a D2 program - but are they really? Valley is a D6 program - but are they really? Nelsonville-York may be labeled D6, but in my mind they are better than that.CautionTape wrote:D3 playing D6 is like Jv teams playing 8th graders.
Athens ran from the SEOAL with 8 playoff wins, 3 regional finals, and a state runner up in division 3. Logan and the rest of the seoal didn't want anything to do with Athens. the Mac always complains about mooney and Ursuline. The Mac gave them the nickname the university of mooney and Ursuline even tho they(Mac) uses open enrollment to their full advantagebucks_09 wrote:Are you honestly being serious? Athens didn't go out and get better and win the darn game, they ran from Logan and the rest of the seoal. Had a couple good seasons beating up on smaller schools and then had 1 great year. The best year they have ever had or ever will. And you know what, still no state title. Go ahead and say they lost to a private school, and that it's not fair that they can recruit. Is it fair that ou is in Athens so coaches sons go to school there and play. Have you ever heard any one from coldwater complaining about playing a private school. In 2007 coldwater beat cardinal mooney in the d4 state final. Mooney was referred to that year as the best high school team money could buy. A public school beat them.

Kudos to all the local schools for continuing to attempting to play in all the sports despite being in separate leagues.93Bulldog wrote:Also ... Athens did not run from Logan. Have them on the schedule for next year, had them booked on the basketball schedule twice every year since Athens left the SEOAL (until Logan backed out). Athens didn't run from Jackson or Gallia or Warren either - they play all three in almost every sport. Athens ran from the weeknight night trips to Ironton, Portsmouth and Zanesville.

No reason that these schools (Jackson, Athens, Warren, and Logan) wouldn't play in football, basketball, baseball, softball, etc. given their proximity to one another.
Wait a second lol...they are pretty big rivals in some of these sports...wait, lol they all are pretty close in distance with Athens being the "center"...wait, yes, they all are about the same size small D2 to large D4...oh, never mind lol that is another topic on another thread :12223 .
Congrats on the 3+ year run Athens, it surely does set up a barn burner of a Week 1 match-up next year now doesn't it lol.
