Ironton Talent

[Larry Fine]

Look. There’s innuendo that there’s supposedly evidence of certain coaches from ironton reaching out to players but unless there’s actual evidence, it’s just rumors. Having four new starters move in doesn’t make it look better but that doesn’t necessarily mean it’s true either.

Agreed. There have been reports of this happening, and even that it has been presented to the OHSAA but there has yet to be anything concrete come out of it. People will talk no matter what, but you are correct, those 4 new starters do not help matters.

Last year Wheelersburg literally had 11 new starters move between 7th and 8th grade, get off your high horse. Wheelersburg has been getting the best kids from other scioto county schools for years.

You're proving our point. Kids are moving to the district in junior high and spending their entire HS career at Burg. There is a difference in moving in jr high and moving in as a senior starter. Burg has had 2 maybe 3 kids transfer in for their senior year in the past decade or so. Most people will think its sketchy when 4 happen in one year. I'm not saying anything has happened but that doesn't help. Btw Burg has lost multiple good athletes to surrounding schools in recent memory.

It doesn’t matter what grade you steal other schools talent, bottom line is Burg wins with other schools kids. But if you claim other schools 8th grade kids as your own homegrown kids then go for it. Not only do you stack up your roster but you deplete the other SOC schools.

Kids come and go from every school in the area. It's the way things go sometimes. Strap up and play the game. You think Wheelersburg wouldn't love to have Irontons 2nd best player back on our roster? Of course we would, but that's rarely brought up.

Yeah it’s easy to strap up with your best and their best. You guys taking shots at Ironton when you have way more recruits.

Pretty good evidence for Burg coaches too. 1 or 2 transfers ok but when you have 7-8 players in one class that’s not coincidence. Needs investigated.

They actually had five transfer in. One already went back to his original school, one came in because his dad married a burg girl, one stayed, one quit football to my knowledge, and the last one already lived in burg his whole life but was going to minford. Like I said you have no idea what you’re talking about.

Very shady to get 5 of the best athletes in scioto county , all from 1 class , and all move to Wheelersburg same time. All on a travel team maybe ? Needs investigated.

5 senior starters transfer in one year. Needs investigated

Perhaps both need Investigated. Either way you constantly point to my Tigers while you’re doing the same thing in your house.

These two don’t even compare. Not even close.

[spider2Ybanana]

Wheelersburg has never had 5 players transfer in to play 1-2 years let along 5 starters. That, my friend, is not the same thing. Does Wheelersburg have kids from outside the district spread throughout the program? Of course, but that is not the conversation at hand. Not even close to being comparable.

Are there any Ironton kids on that 2020 roster?
