Any coaching changes occurring?

[YOU'RE TIGER BAIT]

I have no idea, but I think it's overdue. as great a people as this staff is. they're not getting it done on the gridiron.let's be honest here, sports is about wins n losses and the final record.

The defending state champs pound Ironton by 50

[ohbuckeye2]

Ironton loses 6 Seniors from this years team, should be a pretty good season as long as we don't have anyone transfer out.

you talk about countin chickens early. that crow is rough to swaller trust me.

Depending on schedule 5-5 would be a guess maybe 7-3 or alot of crying fans at 4-6 again lol

[Mavrick2016]

Ironton only went 4-6, because over half of the starter's miss the last 3 games.
Next year if they stay health 7-3 or 8-2, would be my guess.

Ironton went 4-6 because of poor coaching and moving to an offense that they did not have the players to run it. Bottom line!

It seems the last few years they always have a ton of injuries

The only bright spot I see for next year is that a lot of young players got valuable varsity experience. Other than that, I am not expecting much.

me either friend.i'm upset that I'm not hearing anything at all about a coaching change. how far does ironton fighting tiger football have to fall before they take the pride in the program and take the steps to make a change. I've said it 100 times. great people on the staff, just not getting it done on the field, and in the weight room. a losing record of 4-6 is simply unimaginable to me. I take nothing from that league. but it is down in comparison to other leagues and would have been unheard of as recent as 2007.

I think they are afraid to make a change but will be forced to when people stop attending games. I also think it is detrimental to the kids in the lower grades. When I was in grade school and Junior High, I wanted nothing more than be a Fighting Tiger when I got to high school. Will that be the same for the younger kids if the Tigers are a mediocre team for several years?

[YOU'RE TIGER BAIT]

I have no idea if it's true. but i heard from a very reliable source that the ironton head coach was asked to resign at a board meeting and he refused to. and another coach on the staff threatened a union grievance if he was let go.can anyone confirm this. and if so , is this not the cart pulling the horse here.

[YOU'RE TIGER BAIT]

are there any schedule changes in 2018, or will they be in the same rotation.

[TigersGameDayFan]

My question is: At what point does the people of Ironton put their foot down and say I AM NOT SETTLING FOR AVERAGE. Average is exactly what we are as a program right now.

It is time to move on from Coach Vass (wish him the best, he is a great man). But some people are just not cut out to be a head coach.

At this point, I am hoping for change soon. Before the empire crumbles completely.

Just like Tenn Fans not wanting anyone less than Jon Gruden to Coach.

[Tank14]

If we keep vass, mark my word, we will lose some kids who will transfer out next year. We better right the ship now.

[YOU'RE TIGER BAIT]

I'm hearing at least 4 are pulling out now.

[Mavrick2016]

I'm hearing at least 4 are pulling out now.

I have family that is a starter on Ironton football team, he told me that no one is leaving.
