Re: 2024 Wheelersburg Pirates

Two words , Larry Hall. Burg isn’t what it was 5 years ago. true. guarantee losses to ironton, jackson and prep With IHS’ overwhelming talent advantage, they should win this one, but don’t underestimate Pendleton’s ability to blow a game. He’ll do his best to mess this season up. Jackson: game shou...

Re: 2024 Wheelersburg Pirates

Not true. All would have started. Played a lot of snaps last year. Not sure why they are moving but has nothing to do with playing time. Two words , Larry Hall. Burg isn’t what it was 5 years ago. Regional runner up 2 of the last 3 years with new starting QBs each year. I’ll take it as a fan. But i...

Re: 2024 Wheelersburg Pirates

They would physically have to move to be eligible. I’m pretty sure none of them live in that district, I know two don’t at least. So if they play through out the entire year, they have had to have moved addresses. And there lies the entire problem with transfers. Why have rules, if they aren’t goin...

Re: 2024 Wheelersburg Pirates

You are correct about the two, could be the third but don’t know who Clausey is. Is the name spelled correctly. Adkins will hurt more in basketball. That’s a bummer to see him go. Cunningham’s dad played for Burg. That one is a surprise. Not sure if any would have started but losses are losses. Wis...

Re: 2024 Ironton Fighting Tigers

Then what does that say about Pendleton? According to Ironton fans on this site, he has taken calls from Masters, Salyers, and the Burg Lattimore brothers. Also many other nameless Burg players. Who knows how many players from the tri-state area. Ironton fans bring these calls up every year with re...

Re: 2024 Ironton Fighting Tigers

I know this seems shady to you since you are accustomed to the coach reaching out to the players, but the mom can call the coach to talk to him. Coach can’t make any decisions, which is why the mom had to talk to the superintendent. Again, completely foreign to you as an Ironton fan, but that’s how...

Re: 2024 Ironton Fighting Tigers

His mom can call whomever she likes. She has no limitations on who she can call. Now the head coach does not have that luxury; again something foreign to IHS :) He can’t talk to a players mom about her son playing for him while he is enrolled at another school. This just wreaks of shady. I know thi...

Re: 2024 Ironton Fighting Tigers

He was kicked off the Portsmouth team his Junior year. He did have some issues coming in so yes, Coach Woodward did "take him on" and I believe it all worked out fine for him and the Burg. Devon's Mom contacted Coach Woodward and I'm sure his past came up in the conversation and I believe...

Re: 2024 Ironton Fighting Tigers

Reading comprehension fails again. She CALLED him, versus Pendleton calling her! Then she met with the school superintendent. Was asked if anyone from Burg contacted her first. She said no but did say that she was contacted by Pendleton. I know it drives you nuts that Burg doesn’t play these games ...

Re: 2024 Ironton Fighting Tigers

Perkins was all state as a sophomore at Valley. Very good chance he ends up at a school like Marshall even if he stayed at Valley. Portsmouth has produced more D1 football and basketball players than Burg. His high school experience may have been better being on winning teams at Burg, but it is ver...

Who are these kids you speak of? Haven’t seen too many on Burg’s roster. Just some of the kids Woodward has brought in over the years. Wilson, Lowry , Gregg, Lattimore :lol: that was like over a 6 year span bro…lol. I know Gregg been out four years now at least.. he couldnt hack it at Ashland… …u g...

Re: 2024 Ironton Fighting Tigers

Agree. No idea why IHS fans are so defensive about their transfers while constantly focused on where Burg players were born. Last year, they wanted to debate Hutchinson’s current address and where his dad/grandfather went to school. Today, it’s where Matthews started school. Bottom line is: Pendlet...

Re: 2024 Ironton Fighting Tigers

It blows my mind how many times I’ve seen this debacle. It’s like watching a dog run and chase it own tail. Who gives a flying if a kid goes to Ironton be thankful we don’t have what WV has which is 10x worse. Teams that are perennial state powers and have won state championships there are getting ...

Re: 2024 Ironton Fighting Tigers

Oh, the obsession with Ironton football and its transfers these days is quite funny, as if Irontons the only team that gets them. Love it 😂 😂 😂 There’s 21 teams in D5 with a CB # of 20 or more and 14 with a CB # equal or higher then Irontons. Obsession with Ironton football and transfers? I had to ...

Re: 2024 Ironton Fighting Tigers

Lattimore last year from Portsmouth. Greg from Ashland a few years ago. And the state team had a kid, Lowry, from Portsmouth. Don’t know of any Green running backs that transferred in. I think his name was Mathews, he started at Green and transferred in to Wheelersburg. So which kid are you referri...
