Wylie was hurt most of the year last year with a shoulder injury from my understanding. Wylie didn’t come across to me as a kid that would just run it 15-20 times a game and be able to hold up.LockHerUp wrote: ↑Fri Apr 29, 2022 10:12 am With all due respect, I disagree with going back to a 3 back set for a base offense. Ironton has been to the finals 10 times and the most they've ever scored is 14 points in a game - which is kinda hard to believe considering the talent we've had in those years. At that level of competition, it's hard to just bully teams. And it hurt us against wheelersburg last year, too. With Wylie being more athlete than QB, I'd like to have seen some power read like wheelersburg ran, instead of iso, etc.
Pendleton has been fantastic in most aspects. But, play-calling - at least to me and a few others - has been questionable.

Re: Ironton 2022
Ok...valid point regarding Wylie. And - no - he isn't built for 15-20 times a game. I still think we need to be more multi-faceted to make a serious run in the playoffs, though.
Re: Ironton 2022
The coach needs to get a QB that can pass the ball sounds like to me. Anyone in the area have a good one? Maybe look across the river. Gotta be one down that way somewhere. If not, I remember back in the day they pulled an RB in from Detroit. I'm sure there is a really good QB in the greater Detroit area and Ironton seems to have some connections in that area.

He has several D I offers already mostly from the MAC but next year they are set and a sophomore looks very promising after the QB leaves
Re: Ironton 2022
I don't understand the obsession with Ironton's so called recruiting.Open enrollment level the playing field for for public schools to compete with the private schools who never had any geographical boundaries to contend with. All that Ironton is doing or any other teams that take advantage of open enrollment is it is using the tools available to compete with the private and catholic schools.
Re: Ironton 2022
No issues with open enrollment. It’s the recruiting people have issues with. Coaches showing up at basketball games then a kid from that schools ends up at ironton. There is a reason why Ashland ended their rivalry with ironton and it had nothing to do with open enrollmentgobucs20 wrote: ↑Sat Apr 30, 2022 12:56 pm I don't understand the obsession with Ironton's so called recruiting.Open enrollment level the playing field for for public schools to compete with the private schools who never had any geographical boundaries to contend with.

Re: Ironton 2022
It's weird huh? It's almost like the region perceives some sort of imaginary entitlement from competition at the prep level in any aspect but in game on the field and also another entitlement that excludes them from any change in the past 30 - 40 years.gobucs20 wrote: ↑Sat Apr 30, 2022 12:56 pm I don't understand the obsession with Ironton's so called recruiting.Open enrollment level the playing field for for public schools to compete with the private schools who never had any geographical boundaries to contend with.

Big part of why the region lags behind in everything.artisgilmore wrote: ↑Sun May 08, 2022 9:26 amWhat he said.Chilly_D_Castro wrote: ↑Sat Apr 30, 2022 6:23 pmIt's weird huh?
