Someone is selling to the kids "you come play such and such will also play and we will win state championships" kids and parents both buy into now that burg has put themselves on the map with championships. That's why so many people have a hard time cheering for the Scioto County all star team competing for championships. Open enrollment to anything but adjoining school districts have ruined sports. We have lost loyalty and pride to our communities we were born and raised and it sickens me.

I think it was 40 and 22. We all see what we want or have our own hitters while watching. But these two didn’t need help from what I saw. They were around the ball like linebackers are to be. I guess I’m a linebacker kind of fan since it’s what I played many moons ago, lol.

Well because 22 came from your loins you would say that. But he is a good player

I've heard anywhere from 4, 5 or 6 new players came in from other school districts. We know Burg got the best football player in southern Ohio from West and one of Valley's best football players. (Big fullback) Did you end up getting Minford's best player also? Big hard hitting linebacker.

I've never accused Burg of recruiting. Parents bring their kids to Burg for a many different reasons. I'm sure athletics is the top reason for many coming. I just don't want to hear how work ethic, tradition and superior coaching are the main reasons for their success.

Top quality athletes coming into their district has an awful lot to do with their success. I'd also like to know how many of their football players are on course to graduate at 19 years old? I'm willing to bet a whole lot more than most area teams. An extra year does make a big difference in most boys.

I'm sure people will respond by calling me and others who bring up there issues "haters" and "whiners". Simply not true. These are valid issues and concerns that have been around for some time.

Isn’t 32 just a 7th grader?

I have seen comparable players at many other schools Ironton and Jackson for sure. Wests 32 has my vote seen that kid leave it all on the field more than once. What game would be the best match up tomorrow to watch?

Burg got some really good players in and this year Burg scored late to win a 12-8 game which was one of the finest, hardest hitting middle school games I've seen. Burgs team is Burgs team and it's a great one. Everyone else needs to work harder and get better, bottom line.
