No Shot-clock? Then It’s Not Really Basketball

How much longer till a shot clock is finally put in place across the state? It’s ridiculous watching stall ball that does nothing to hone a kids skills for the game

It’s not really basketball

Re: State Championship 14-0 Kirtland v the 13-1 Ironton Fighting Tigers

Very strange you'd go searching for a topic 5 years old, especially one where Ironton gets rail railroaded with a running clock in the state championship game. Kirtland barely had the guys to be DV but dominated it in their short time up there, amazing how they just kept it rolling Well, I'm sure i...

Re: State Championship 14-0 Kirtland v the 13-1 Ironton Fighting Tigers

Kids will be motivated one of two ways. They will either want to be a part of it or a part of defeating it. Either way, presently the lights in this particular area are the brightest in Ironton. Kids are gonna be motivated by it. Funny, I had to read what I wrote five years ago a couple times befor...

Re: State Championship 14-0 Kirtland v the 13-1 Ironton Fighting Tigers

So, to the original post, kids want to go to Ironto because they were on National TV 35 years ago! Got it! You asked a question and I gave you an answer. Ironton has a proud tradition of football. The very stadium that they play in was constructed for the professional team, the Ironton Tanks. They ...

Re: Ironton Classic 2024

Tigers looked pretty good for the first outing of the season. Will take some time to come together on both ends of the floor. Get in shape and get their shooting eye. Heard the starting lineup and also they mention Ironton leading scorers from past years. They left one name out from past years that...

Re: Ironton 2025 Schedule, Wish List & Done Deals?

If distance for teams traveling to Ironton and Ironton traveling to them I’d like to see. Bring back Hartley, add Stuebenville, Martinsburg WV, Clinton-Massie, Ashland, Huntington WV They could maybe get Prep if they are not too scared after last time. Lol Not giving that “Christian faith based” sc...

Re: IRONTON FIGHTING TIGERS! 2024 DIVISION 5 STATE CHAMPIONS!

Pendleton talked to so called recruits? What does that mean, ‘talked to’? At what level is he expected to not talk to a kid? I’m sure some kid looking at coming to play at another school is interested in the coach and his staff. When is talking to a kid a violation? Are there specific rules? A coach...

Re: Ironton Vs. Marion Local In Week 1...Not So Fast

ML would have hung a running clock on Ironon this season. Why do you say that? the largest school DVII Marion Local faced this year was a DV school which was 5-6 Versailles. I don't have a crystal ball, and neither does anyone else but the fact of the matter is, it's like arguing who would have won...

Re: Ironton 2025 Schedule, Wish List & Done Deals?

The longer travel I don’t mind, especially if it’s kept under two hours, however, I’m long retired. I can head to the game anytime I want. Having said that, on these games where there’s more travel involved, I would like to see the games start a little later. For years, they didn’t start to 8, then ...

Re: Ironton 2025 Schedule, Wish List & Done Deals?

According to online sources, they are looking for 4 games. I know Wheelersburg, Jackson, Fairland, Gallia, and Portsmouth are on there. Not sure of the 6th game. With Weeks 1 and 2 open, that should make it easier to fill. I believe Week 7 is also open but that could be tougher. I’d been told Racel...

Re: IRONTON FIGHTING TIGERS! 2024 DIVISION 5 STATE CHAMPIONS!

I really don't understand a lot of this back and forth. Burg, has an excellent program. During Ironton's drought, before Pendleton took over, Wheelersburg was THE program in southern Ohio. I think Burg is simply in a 'Decade of Despair' so don't despair. We have some future coaching changes at Iront...

Re: IRONTON FIGHTING TIGERS! 2024 DIVISION 5 STATE CHAMPIONS!

It is sad that Ironton has fallen so far as to attempt to schedule the team with the nation’s longest win streak. Bob Lutz would never! Pardon my ignorance or stupidity but I don’t understand what you mean? What would be wrong with it? He is being sarcastic my guy. You dont read many books huh? Lol...

Re: Ironton 2025 Schedule, Wish List & Done Deals?

Back in the 80s and the 90’s, Coach Lutz and A.D.Mike Burcham drug Ironton fans all around the state and not a few games deep into Kentucky and West Virginia. I, for one, love that Ironton had this set up and are tickled that it looks like Coach Pendleton has brought it back again. Nothing is more b...
