Thank god you said "To me" bc to everyone else you make zero sense. Historically Ironton is one of the best programs in state of Ohio history. Burg has a fantastic history but they are not close to Ironton. End of story.
You may be right but like I said I never really followed big divisions other than going to title games. Most teams I grew up around were all small division schools other than senior high
Understand that man. Ironton's program runs deep into the early 1900s. It certainly something you should look into if that interest you bc they have a ton of history. Also if you have never been to a game @ Ironton. Would recommend going to check one out. It is a fun atmosphere for small town football.
If he follows Unioto then he knows all about playing small schools.

You may want to read OHSAA sports regulation 9.1 and 9.2 before talking about offseason requirements and dedication to workouts. There can be no required attendance, no skill training/coaching by coaches and there can’t even be any sports related equipment at these workouts like a football. The penalty is one calendar year in Bylaw 11 in the no contact period.

I assure you that the Burg will be ready to battle at the Ed week 6!! Hoist the Jolly Roger and be ready to fire the cannons!!
Dude, you're doing the AD chat all over. You just asked for opinions than you back handedly insult posters for having an opinion. I've been on this site for 16 years, and you're by far one of the strangest posters when it comes to positing style. I am not sure if you actually want to have a dialogue or you just want to argue with people and get them all up-in-arms. It appears you are trolling in several threads. I want to like you, but I have seen many posters like you on this site ruin entire threads because you feel you're some sort of authority on the board.

The game is on the schedule because they're rivals. The games last year were not competitive. In fact, there is a good chance they won't be again next season.

What do the OHSAA sports regs have to do with Ironton's voluntary workouts? Go look at their social media and look at 50+ kids strong at 6am conditioning workouts. Just because they're voluntary in nature doesn't mean one schools kids aren't more dedicated.

I honestly feel like you want to act like an expert on all things Ohio High School Sports, but simply stating a rule without actually knowing real context makes you look more ignorant to how they're actually applied.

Here is another example of just a talking head who only sees one side of the fence. I did not ask for opinion as I was responding to comments in the thread and providing factual information. Here you are in Cincy responding to a thread for who knows what reason.

I know you don’t like facts but the by-laws in the OHSAA is just that. You can’t deny or try to twist what you can or can’t do. One responder did say they are required workout by the coaches which is against OHSAA no contact policy during this time of the year. They also can not provide clinics to HS age kids at this time not provide any instruction. It is just workouts and voluntary at that. Maybe your buddies need to read the bylaws clearly stated on OHSAA website.

Do I believe it is great that they have 50 kids out at 6 am for a voluntary workout?? Absolutely, just as long as they are meeting the guidelines of the state. Every good program right now has a weight program going on including Burg but it is just that.

You can call me whatever you like but you are just that… a talking head who doesn’t like when something is brought to light or has a different opinion than you have. You just need to move on and quit responding to me if you don’t like what I say.

With no Terry, this game will be a different story. Nobody can deny he was a game changer, but he is gone.

I am not sure why I have to keep repeating this, but I have family coaching in SEO, I'll give you one guess where they coach.

Secondly, do you really believe everyone on this site currently lives in SEO? Come on man, act like an adult.

You have no idea how to apply to by-laws of the OHSAA. You're so random dude who IS NOT A COACH, TEACHER, or ADMIN. You're just a guy who likes to google and you spit out random regulations without knowing how to apply them.

A talking head? This is a sports chat forum. This isn't ESPN.

Of all of the posters on this site who want to talk about "facts" you're probably in the least position to do so.

I wish there were an ignore function on this site, you'd be the first one on it. Like I said, I've been here for 16 years on this site, you're by far the strangest I have encountered.

Haha I didn’t think it had anything to do with unioto. This was an ironton burg thread. I get my opinion isn’t popular it is what it is for a second I was talking football I guess I’ll sit it out and let it go back to burg ironton trash talk.

Oh, now you want to admit that you have family coaching. We all knew this from the beginning with the way you take up for certain people. You said in other posts that they were just “friends”. This is why you think it is ok to take from the education of kids to pay someone full time when it doesn’t happen very many other schools in our area. Believe it or not, I have a very good knowledge of the by-laws of the OHSAA. I assure you that I just don’t Google information and I am in a good position to talk anything sports.

Believe it or not, someone who likes to see one side of anything is a talking head who just post to hear yourself talk with a bias opinion. I have already came to the conclusion that your view is skewed before you admitted you had family.

You are welcome to ignore my posts by just not responding. I would appreciate that very much.

2023 was 17-14 Ironton
2022 was 12-3 Ironton
2021 Wheelersburg actually won one!
2020 would have been Ironton by a score or two
2019 was Ironton’s biggest win in the series for a long time, 30-6

My guess is, come September, it will be a competitive game. Ironton will likely be favored, but I doubt it’s going to look like it did in the regional finals unless Shaun Terry regains eligibility.
The gap has widened significantly. Ironton has DOMINATED burg during Pendletons tenure as well as all time head to head.

Burg has only won their region 4 times in about 4 decades.

Burg hasnt sniffed a state title game in almost a decade.

The fall off for burg is hard to ignore.

Burg has had 8 Regional Championships, 18 Regional Finals Appearances, and 36 State Playoff Appearances. As we all know, we have 2 State Championships (1989, 2017)!!

Burg is 20x the program World Harvest is. Their kids may be outclassed in athleticism and skill but they aren’t going to commit stupid penalties and just play reckless with no class.

You know you can just ignore the post, but you can’t help yourself by being one of the talking heads. I’m sure you have been a joy on here for the past 16 years. Some people just have to say their opinion like they do on the news.

I assure you that everything is by OHSAA regulations at the Burg. We have several players competing in Powerlifting recently. It is too risky to not follow regulations and someone happen to be near the stadium with a camera or video. OHSAA always has pretty long list of schools who get caught and face penalties.

Rumblings that Burg may be heading up to D4 next season? Either way, expectations with them against Ironton at this point needs to be “compete.” The 2 games this past season were not competitive, or acceptable.

Also hearing some much-needed changes have already taken place though this offseason within the program, and looking forward to the Pirates stepping back in the ring with Ironton in Week 6.*

I’m hearing a couple players might be leaving the Burg, you heard anything?

Oh, now you want to admit that you have family coaching. We all knew this from the beginning with the way you take up for certain people. You said in other posts that they were just “friends”. This is why you think it is ok to take from the education of kids to pay someone full time when it doesn’t happen very many other schools in our area. Believe it or not, I have a very good knowledge of the by-laws of the OHSAA. I assure you that I just don’t Google information and I am in a good position to talk anything sports.

Believe it or not, someone who likes to see one side of anything is a talking head who just post to hear yourself talk with a bias opinion. I have already came to the conclusion that your view is skewed before you admitted you had family.

You are welcome to ignore my posts by just not responding. I would appreciate that very much.
I wish there were an ignore function on this site, you'd be the first one on it. Like I said, I've been here for 16 years on this site, you're by far the strangest I have encountered.
You know you can just ignore the post, but you can’t help yourself by being one of the talking heads. I’m sure you have been a joy on here for the past 16 years. Some people just have to say their opinion like they do on the news.
My guess is you have to be fresh out of high school. Your posting style is one of someone who is still trying to figure this all out.

Talking head? Just for perspective, here is your official definition so you'll stop using it incorrectly: a commentator or reporter on television who addresses the camera and is viewed in close-up.

Secondly, I have seen you destroy several threads over the past month, and then accuse other posters of being "talking heads" for giving opinions. Your opinion was vague and lacked any substance other than you addressing someone claiming that Ironton is more dedicated to their WEIGHTROOM program and conditioning (no ball, no sport specific instruction), and you decided to throw up an out of season rule as if that had anything to do with anything. My point remains, your ability to interpret rules and apply them show you're in no way involved in educational athletics at the high school level.

I have as many posts as you do in 16 years because I mostly read, that was until I saw you going on rampages about topics you knew and continue to know nothing about. Following it up with blaming other posters who have been here for years and address others with respect, that their opinions are like the news, as if you bring anything of importance or substance to the board.

Like Taylor Swift says, "it's me, hi, I'm the problem it's me".

Just setting the record straight!!
I am wondering after Ironton beats burg again this season if burg will keep them on the schedule or run away from them with their tails tucked like they did Harvest Prep?

Burg is 20x the program World Harvest is. Their kids may be outclassed in athleticism and skill but they aren’t going to commit stupid penalties and just play reckless with no class.
Burg is what now 0 & 4 or 0 & 5 vs prep? Everytime they have played burg looks very intimidated by Prep. Similar to how burg looked vs Ironton this past season. Looked terrified and beat before they even started. I often wonder if thats culture in the burg program or lack thereof? Whereis Ironton seems to embrace the anybody anywhere anytime any place mentality?

Oh… here we go again with the talking head. You just can’t help yourself can you. I assure you that I am not just trying to figure things out. Just to educate you… a talking head is a person whose talk is empty and pretentious. You say you want to ignore me but continue to reply. You proclaim I destroy threads because it addresses concerns about topics you don’t like. I have other topics coming as well so stay tuned.

The bylaw I threw up had plenty to do with the topic with offseason training. The OHSAA has strict guidelines. You don’t know what a program is doing in southern Ohio anyways, you say you are in Cincinnati. I would just appreciate you not replying but I assure you that I will respond if you do. I back responses up with facts that will educate you. I also want to assure you that I am not just rattling off rules, you just don’t like facts especially when it follows up by the actual rules people can read for themselves.

It always comes down to the cutoff for the division by OHSAA. We are always close to the top of the division numbers wise. I assure you we will be ready for battle and more than compete with the team down the river. The Terry kid hurt a lot of teams last year but he is gone.

Week 6 will be a battle at the ED!! See you there
