Re: Wheelersburg 2023
Burg will be very young next year, especially at the skill positions. Look for a lot of Sophomore's to be playing as that is the next big class coming up. I've heard very good things about the QB in that class, was able to watch him as a young player years ago and he was running around everyone wit...

Re: Wheelersburg 2023
Wheelersburg lost some really good players. A bunch of them. Most 2 and 3 year starters on good teams. They will not be as good next year.

Re: Round 3- #5. Portsmouth West (11-1) Vs # 1. Ironton (12-0)
We all knew it would take an almost perfect game to pull it off last night and unfortunately that did not happen. Stalled drives, a few penalties and missed balls that are uncharacteristic did not land our way. We did a pretty good job stopping the run. I was more impressed with Carpenter than anyt...

Re: Round 3- #5. Portsmouth West (11-1) Vs # 1. Ironton (12-0)
Heard it was their safety (#2) who is a sophomore.* Ok thanks. Not sure if that hurt them or not. Stinks he couldn’t of been out there. Didn't matter who played for West last night. Ironton attacked West where ever they wanted. West fans who posted they have a physical team found out they don't. Yo...

Re: Round 3- #5. Portsmouth West (11-1) Vs # 1. Ironton (12-0)
Tigers’ defense way too much in this one. Sissel is a decent back but Ironton has seen several better backs already this year which helped prepare them for this one. Next week will be a very tough matchup with a talented Harvest Prep team that Ironton played in a 7 on 7 this past summer. All 8 team...

Re: Round 3- #5. Portsmouth West (11-1) Vs # 1. Ironton (12-0)
I think it comes down to what are you teaching your kids? Learn to fight through adversity or cut and run when things aren’t going well? I’m super proud of the West kids for staying the course. Win or loose. Every kid on this team has been there since kindergarten playing together and for one anothe...

Wasn’t a pretty win but they grounded it out and done what they had to do to win.
Defense played great.

Re: Round 3- #5. Portsmouth West (11-1) Vs # 1. Ironton (12-0)
West played tight last night.
All the pressure is on Ironton.
Play loose and let the chips fall where they may.
I believe in these guys.

Re: Round 2 Columbus Academy @ Portsmouth West
West matches up well this game on both sides of the ball.
Do what got you here. Let the defense keep you in the game and make them tackle Sissel. They won’t want to. Pass enough to keep them honest.

Re: Round 2 Columbus Academy @ Portsmouth West
CA will be well coached. They have speed. They don’t look to have a great deal of size.
I would expect them to try and stack the box to stop the run as everyone has this year. West is difficult to defend. If West can hit them with a couple passes I think Sissel has a big night.

The big kid Stewart that came off the bench for Valley will need to be a factor. He’s had h...

Re: OVC & SOC Merge Talk
Ironton joining the FAC is probably the only realistic option if they want a more competitive football league. If the soc/ovc tried to merge.... Ironton- perfect fit. D5 Jackson- perfect fit. D3 Wheelersburg- perfect fit. D5 Waverly- good fit based on school size. D4 Fairland- good fit except footb...

Re: SOC 1 Champs Northwest vs SOC 2 Champs West.
This thread is very confusing. Exactly what are you saying? Are you honestly comparing Northwest’s schedule to West’s? If you are saying Northwest is good that’s understandable. They are a decent team with some players that would play on any team in the area (Baer, Brackman, Lintz, etc). But to dog ...

Re: Portsmouth West 14 - 7 Wheelersburg 2022 SOC Championship
My take on the last few posts Wheelersburg has good coaching. The talent has dropped off from 4 or 5 years ago. West has gotten better from a talent aspect. West has gotten into the 2000s in both offense and defense of the spread. West kids have had success against Wheelersburg in the younger grades...

Re: Portsmouth West 14 - 7 Wheelersburg 2022 SOC Championship
Like was said, when Burg brought in Rucker at QB West dropped out of the 8-9 in the box and what’s Burg do? They start chucking the ball 40 yards down the field trying to hit big play. Go back to running the ball with some RPO and keep West guessing!! I can’t really say West was the better team bec...
