I have burg unfortunately losing their first 3 games to Ironton, Cincy Mc, & Jackson. From there burg will pick up back to back wins vs NW & Valley. Burg will then drop their I believe 4th or 5th straight to Harvest Prep. Then Burg flexes their muscle for 3 consecutive weeks vs Oak Hill, Wa...

Mathematically, yes it gives more teams a chance to win. I didn’t say that is the argument for doing so. Ohio remains one of the most difficult states to win a championship and it is factual that now more teams have the opportunity to be in the tournament. It is the experience of a playoff game tha...

I’m not saying there should be more divisions, I’m pointing out that it is more difficult to win a state championship in Ohio than it is virtually any other state. On top of that, football is the only sport in the state that doesn’t include all its athletes in the postseason. The line about “partic...

Why does this matter. Ironton has always had more D1 talent than Burg. Burg wins with a program. Ironton wins with talent. Most of the time they are good games. So Ironton should win. Good take Ironton recruits talent because they have to in order to be successful. Burg has built a program to make ...

I believe so.

Newman could sling it for sure. Newman and Ellis were both special athletes. Ellis is in the discussion for best athlete ever at Burg. Started as a sophomore in football, basketball, and baseball. Newman was on the first Burg football team to ever win at Ironton. Unfortunately, IHS got the last lau...

By ya own admission its producing results and changing young mens lives in that poor little town. No ambition, no ships to Notre Dame etc. Ironton is a poor town, as are many others in the country. Not sure what that has to do with him getting a full ride to Notre Dame. That said, good to see you f...

They were both all.academic big ten as a p5 conference football player? This was your original question and post: “Hey I was wondering if you could tell me when burg err I mean Yale - Scioto University had their last All academic NCAA power 5 conference product? Ain't the whole idea to be talented ...

So burg football hasnt been able to produce the talent & academics together huh? Both were first team all-state football players and first team all state baseball players. Ellis started at linebacker as a sophomore on the state championship team. Newman started on D for the first Burg team to b...

Hey I was wondering if you could tell me when burg err I mean Yale - Scioto University had their last All academic NCAA power 5 conference product? Ain't the whole idea to be talented and a good student? Carrico was all B10 academic I do believe. Everybody keeps telling me about burgs academics so ...

Well said!!!

Last two athletes Burg sent to OSU on full rides straight out of high school for sports were Ellis and Newman in baseball. Ellis graduated from OSU with a degree in engineering and is now COO and Co-Founder of ADTC. Josh Newman was a three time B10 all-academic honoree, played a few years of pro ba...

I discovered an interesting trend on seops. No matter the sport. When seo teams are still in the post season or reg season competing they are "great" and "I really think they can win it" and "hard working farm kids who know how to work hard" etc etc etc etc the superla...

You worded that wrong. Burg moving to D4 after being the last team in the region to win a D5 state title. Meanwhile mighty Ironton continues their slow decline while still not being able to win the big one despite the amount of talent they bring in :( Hey I was wondering if you could tell me when b...

So Burg is d4 but can't beat the good d5s in their region and Irontons d5 participation is just as high and more talented than burgs d4 "growth" is what I'm hearing. You worded that wrong. Burg moving to D4 after being the last team in the region to win a D5 state title. Meanwhile mighty ...
