He came to burg partly because his mom got hired there.yabbadabbadoo wrote: ↑Fri Mar 12, 2021 8:50 pmRoundBall1 wrote: ↑Fri Mar 12, 2021 8:06 pmCole Loweryyabbadabbadoo wrote: ↑Thu Mar 11, 2021 12:27 pm
Name me one other good athlete Burg has brought in in the last 5 years besides Truitt that has made a huge impact for them. I love these people who say Burg brings in these good "athletes" like we have them coming in by the droves!!!
These small private schools around the big cities can pick and chose who they want to bring in. I would say that 90% of those leftover kids would start for just about every team down here, Burg included.
Also, was curious as to who was the 6'8" kid sitting on the bench for them not even dressed to play. Heard he was from Haiti and was ineligible to play. Any truth to that?
Ok, I’ll give you Cole but not sure he didn’t make the decision on his own to come to Burg. Things had went stagnant for him at Portsmouth so he left. Turned out pretty well for him!
The problem I have with it is when burg gets hammered with it when almost every team in the area has a positive CB. Burg usually has a higher one but the “burg recruits” gets old. Both head coaches for burg football and basketball would never promote it. They will coach whoever comes through the door but that’s it.smurray wrote: ↑Fri Mar 12, 2021 9:02 pmBroken recordLucasDavenport wrote: ↑Fri Mar 12, 2021 8:59 pm Every year when Wheelersburg loses we go through this discussion.

And his mom was a teacher at Wheelersburg at the time, just made sense. Now as to Burg recruiting across multiple sports, I just don't see where it happens. Now travel along the river and you'll find a great school of Ironton which is buzzing with transfers.yabbadabbadoo wrote: ↑Fri Mar 12, 2021 8:50 pmRoundBall1 wrote: ↑Fri Mar 12, 2021 8:06 pmCole Loweryyabbadabbadoo wrote: ↑Thu Mar 11, 2021 12:27 pm

Hunter's Point? There are like 8 houses in the entire subdivision lol.yabbadabbadoo wrote: ↑Fri Mar 12, 2021 9:32 pmwobycat wrote: ↑Fri Mar 12, 2021 9:24 pmThe problem I have with it is when burg gets hammered with it when almost every team in the area has a positive CB.

Like we said earlier woby, how many of these kids live in Patriot Ridge or Hunters Point. Not every kid that has came to Burg has been a superstar.
No one on here ever has any evidence that these so called coaches are out recruiting kids. I call BS on that.
I am still waiting on what players live in Patriot Ridge.....yabbadabbadoo wrote: ↑Fri Mar 12, 2021 9:32 pmwobycat wrote: ↑Fri Mar 12, 2021 9:24 pmThe problem I have with it is when burg gets hammered with it when almost every team in the area has a positive CB.

And you have a kid at Burg RIGHT NOW that was recruited by a Burg jr high coach. Take that to the bank. You're unbelievable. I guess that should be expected from a former band member who never played a sport but acts like he knows all about sports.....
This is my problem with it. Yabba and woby complain on any thread that mentions Ironton and how they have “recruits,” but will give you any run around or excuse imaginable when a kid moves into Burg.... It’s exhausting to be honest. How the blinders can be that thick I will never quite know.SWHITE2002 wrote: ↑Tue Mar 16, 2021 10:20 pm Some of the same people on here defending Wheelersburg accuse Ironton of recruiting. If you are so sure Wheelersburg doesn't, then how are you so sure others do? Speculate, evidence, envy, or just read the tea leaves like everyone else?
