Re: Ironton "Play anyone" but West, "Play anywhere" but the Westside

Adults are ruining kids football. Ironton was supposed to come to the West side for our youths homecoming but decided they didn't want to play because a group of adults got together and thought it was a bad idea. I mean come on man. Its about the kids not the adults. Its a shame adults have to ruin...

Re: 2023 Youth Football Scores

Whats up with nobody playing west? I know Minford 5th cancelled against the 6th of West but our 5th will play anyone, Its no wonder Minfords HS program is in the toilet, I've heard that everyone is dropping West due to craziness of West coaches. I have no kids in youth programs but have heard rumbl...

Re: September 29, 2023 Oak Hill - Wheelersburg

Gotcha. I agree, if you have to cancel because of injuries/numbers, then just go ahead and cancel the rest of the season. I'm not sure how many they started with, but things aren't looking good in oak hill. I wonder what their youth programs look like. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. The...

Re: September 29, 2023 Valley - Portsmouth West

Love that the Indians got their first win of the season last week, but West will be too much. The offense is really struggling to find any consistency. Not sure what the answer is, but something needs fixed in that department. Have liked what I saw from the defense though.

Re: Week 6: Valley vs Northwest

I think northwest takes it easily valley can’t stop the run Not sure I agree with you on the first part of your statement. I think this will be a close game. Now the second part of your statement on stopping the run I agree with. Not sure what the issue is there (Personnel, play calling, both?) but...

September 22, 2023 Northwest 6 - 7 Valley

Haven't seen a thread on this matchup yet. Not sure what the Mohawks have, but should be a good game. Hopefully the young Indians can pull out a win Friday night.

Re: September 15, 2023 Valley - Wheelersburg

#'s is everything? It would if talent level is equal and you're saying one team simply wore down another. What's the numbers for Portsmouth, Piketon, a DVI Coal Grove team? See numbers aren't everything if you've got the horses to lineup and play a larger team you will compete just Valley isn't the...

Re: Week 4: Valley (0-3) at Waverly (2-1)

Heard some boys from Waverly will not be participating this week and possibly next due to discipline. Not sure if this is accurate? Not sure who the boys are or if it will affect the game much.

Re: Week 4: Valley (0-3) at Waverly (2-1)

Waverly by as much as they want. Not sure Valley can win a game this year. It will take a perfect offensive game for them to pull out a win this year because defensively, they will stop no one. Feel like they need to simplify defensive playbook. Offensively, I would like to see the QB set his feet b...

Re: Week 2 Coal Grove at Lucasville Valley

Valley is basically putting a JV team on the field. They have more freshman and sophomores getting minutes than juniors and seniors. Anybody whose been around the program knew this was what it was going to be. Freshman and sophomores getting major minutes in Varsity football is totally different tha...

Re: Week 2 Coal Grove at Lucasville Valley

Valley needs to come out and play hard and continue to grow. Not sure what to expect from CG. Are they smash mouth running type team like last year? Also, does anyone know if Valley QB can make plays with his feet? This is the first I've seen him play. Looks to have a good arm, but was very one dime...

Re: Scrimmage Results

Valley is very young. Maybe 30 kids out. Counting 1 senior and 8 juniors, the math says 21 players are freshmen and sophomores. Valley's receivers, rbs, and qb are very talented, but as with any team, success will be determined by the O-line. Valley is very young. There is 1 senior. He's a great ki...

Re: SOC 2 Districts

Great job by Powell coming in to finish the game. First inning he came in was kinda shaky but he ended up settling down got the job done. He's going to be a heck of a player as he is only a freshman. Also, great team win. The bats were out toward the middle of the game. Great job boys. Keep it going.

Re: D3 Tournament Thread

Thoughts on the Valley game: First, the sloppiest game I've seen them play. You will have that from time to time. Just hate that it was during the post season. Not sure they were mentally ready to play basketball. They would've lost to anyone last night. Only made 2 3's. Still a lot of shooting cont...

Re: Tuesday 2/7 Games

On a positive note for the Valley Indians, Colt Buckle is a heck of a player. Best player hands down on that team. His toughness is unbelievable. Attacks the basket with an aggressive mindset instead of settling for bad shots and is the best rebounding guard I've seen in a while. Coach needs to make...
