Is this a OC for basketball?? Didn't realize they had that because that's the only thing Ironton is worrying about right now. Guess all those Sunday morning pushups and 6 am runs weren't enough get tougher up front boys it's the same thing every year. Does Ironton have a basketball team? I never se...

Sounds like the honeymoon is over in Ironton. A lot of the parents aren't real happy right now. I heard that some are upset that kids with no real ties to the community are coming in and taking playing time away from the kids who've dedicated their whole lives to Ironton football. That’s not the ca...

The defense was solid all year, even against some pretty talented teams. Yes. The problem Irontons defense ran into was when they started to lose at the line of scrimmage the defense would get stranded on the field too long and the offense couldn't stay on the field because they couldn't sustain dr...

Preps the higher seed correct?

Why??? Because they beat Ironton??? Burg would have beat Ironton like a drum. We will see come Friday. I'm sure after Burg wins your clown ass will be nowhere to be found!!! Prep 31 Burg 21 #HatTrick The win for prep in the regular season was already the hat trick… Yup. Sure was. Lol. #Sweep lol

He needs to drive the back roads during hay baling season and he will find lean, tough and naturally strong kids to open up holes. You don't need to be 6'6" 300 lbs in high school to win at the point of contact. Leave the city folk and tobacco pickers in their respective communities. I don't r...

I remember Lutz snagged a few really talented Huntingon kids.

Only in SEO does a young man/coach get criticized, insulted, etc. That never happens anywhere else when it comes to sports. 🤦‍♂️ He didn't criticize his coaching. Lol. It was personal. Idk man that kinda energy is weird for a grown man to harbor about another grown man. Did he bang his wife? 🤣 I do...

Ironton was lost playing HP they simply didn't know what to do with that speed and the talent up front just dominated them. Offensively they couldn't figure out if they wanted to try and run it, they couldn't but they didn't really want to pass it because they couldn't block HP up front and the WRs...

I’m sure Pendleton was begging to get Ironton out of the OVC and not the other schools requesting their departure. Pendleton is an arrogant SOB that strokes his ego beating down inferior teams but, when the lights are brightest on the biggest stages, he’s always standing when the music stops. Give ...

HP did an excellent job of taking Terry out of the game. It was one of those let someone else beat us if you can. I still say the Tiger's need to find an identity on offense. There just didn't seem to be a ryhme or reason in play calling. It's easy to play bully ball, being all flashy, against the ...

Ok, but I didn't come on here hardly any this year so I have limited knowledge as far as what others thought. I, for one, fully expected we would lose against Prep. Someone on here said that we'd lose because we wouldn't be facing the same team as what we did last year but a far more accurate state...

Without Pendleton Ironton would still be in OVC in 2024. Before him we finished 4th in the worst conference in state. Bob Bruney handed the keys of a winner to Coach Lutz. Bruney is the guy who turned Ironton around. Pendleton doesn’t want to be in the OVC. Why do you think this was the last year. ...

Ovc trophies are more of an embarrassment than an accomplishment. During the Lutz days we made fun of the ovc. Would never took their title serious. Without Pendleton Ironton would still be in OVC in 2024. Before him we finished 4th in the worst conference in state. Bob Bruney handed the keys of a ...

Wouldn’t be surprised to see Johnson get some run at receiver next year. 6-3 with speed to burn. I imagine Edwards will be tossing it to Roach, Terry, Schreck and possibly Johnson. Williams, Carmen and Copas in the backfield. It’ll all depend on someone’s ability to coach up a huge offensive line. ...

#12 is a great qb. He got put in situation where he didn’t get many reps as qb all season. Heaths head coach told him after game , he was one of best qb they have played. #12 is a “great” QB? Are you serious? He’s a better WR than QB and he isn’t a “great” WR. #11 at the QB position with #4 AND #12...

How do we feel about the offensive playcalling?

I had no idea that Max Preps not only kept game stats but season stats as well. Even down to pancake blocks. Going through individual stats several jumped off the page at me, no where more than when I looked at tackles! We always hear about players like Terry or Williams but these guys? unless you'...

Agree 110%

#7 is better than 11 or 12 already.

#12 yes, #11 no. #7 is a great athlete so far and looked great in JV games. That said, he looked very timid and lost in varsity action. He’ll get there, give him time.

More upside for #7 is what I should have said

Much higher ceiling.

Pendleton tenure at Ironton Takes over program in summer of 2018.

Pendleton takes over and goes 6-5 in first season Losses- Wheelersburg 28-7, ...
