Kids will be motivated one of two ways. They will either want to be a part of it or a part of defeating it. Either way, presently the lights in this particular area are the brightest in Ironton. Kids are gonna be motivated by it.kantucky wrote: ↑Fri Dec 13, 2019 12:01 pmthebarlowbandit wrote: ↑Wed Dec 11, 2019 3:40 pmSo, to the original post, kids want to go to Ironto because they were on National TV 35 years ago! Got it!
You asked a question and I gave you an answer. Ironton has a proud tradition of football. The very stadium that they play in was constructed for the professional team, the Ironton Tanks. They play on the field that is named after who was the winningest coach at the time of his retirement, Lutz Field named after Bob Lutz .
For five decades now Ironton continues to distinguish themselves in the prep program. Mediocrity will not be accepted in Ironton and that is displayed in the way that they went out and acquired a coach who would be so devoted to the program as Pendleton is. No small amount of boys will undoubtably earn scholarships the next decade.
When coach Pendleton arrived in Ironton he demanded the best out of the boys and they responded in like. Just his second year at the helm and now Ironton has been to Canton to play in the state championship game. What young man wouldn't want to be part of of such a program who is serious about their football career?
Finally, maybe the question you should have ask instead of the one you did, is why more boys haven't came into the program yet? Maybe it's just because they like to get an early start on their basketball?

You were saying? You wouldn’t have beaten MSML in D6 either. Hope the room you made for the trophy was for silver. D6 with us and MSML was tougher than all of D5.

Congrats on a state title Tigers! Might as well make room for it! Also, the reminiscing of the Lutz days can finally be done too.

I can respect that. Hopefully we get a rematch again this year. I know it’s the game most everyone wants to see. Good luck to your Tigers in the playoffs and stay healthyBlizzardMan wrote: ↑Fri Oct 16, 2020 8:35 pmI was very wrong.Kirtland80 wrote: ↑Thu Oct 15, 2020 1:11 pmYou were saying?
