2021 Wheelersburg Pirates

[Fan Friday]

I know his family, you couldn’t pry him from Ironton lol.

Why would he want to leave and go to Burg??? He’s an amazing kid, with amazing friends and teammates with 2 State Championship appearances in the past 2 years!! Trust me ain’t no kid that is a starter or very good player that wants to leave Ironton to go to the Burg. Kids at Ironton are faithful to their school.

But are they at their previous school? Lol

Hey burg will take the ironton kids that get passed up on playing time by the transfers. We can start the first high school transfer portal. Like what the colleges do now.

Even 2nd string wouldn’t want to leave and go to Burg! I’m not sure who you are talking about! But you obviously have a player in mind and insinuating some kid so just come out and say who you are speaking of. Then we can have a discussion.

[Fan Friday]

We will get there and we will show you how it’s done versus Kirtland when we do. It’s not our fault you put up a goose egg but we had fun watching you do it

Well ya got to get there first! For now you’ve just been watching from your TV in your living room! We thank you for following every single step of our football season! We appreciate all the support!!!

Didn’t a few come in this year from other schools? I didn’t see them on last year’s roster.

Got to get over the fact kids leave schools to go play at another. It’s part of modern era football Just as a shot on a WR coming across the middle earned you a helmet sticker in 1995. But in 2020 Yiu are kicked out of the game. The NCAA Tranfer Portal. It’s part of college football. Now. Times change.

The Hoban/Massillon game. I quit counting. How many kids from Hoban. Started at Massillon. Or how many players started at Massillon and were now on Hoban. It is what it is. Parents want what’s Best for their child and who is an outsider to pass judgement on why another family chose to move to another school district. Every reason is different. But one thing stays the same. It was the best decision for the child in the parent(s) mind.


And I still can’t believe people get on here snd knock athletes like Reid Carrico Tanner Holden. Etc. my goodness those are some of the FINEST athletes SEO has dished out. And to bash these KIDS or say they won’t do well....baffles me. They have done more then 95% of the people that get on here and bash em. I’m gonna assume they do it because they couldn’t earn a starting spot on a high school football team in SEO themselves so the ones that do excel and move on. it’s just in their jealous nature to wish the successful ones Ill-fate......

Yes I believe there were some boys that moved here from Mississippi. How long do players have to go to a school before they are considered not a transfer? Because we could start dropping names. However I personally don’t care who leaves and who comes! But it happens at every year at both these schools. Let’s not pretend!

Mississippi? How many transferred in? I thought one came from burg and the other came from West Virginia somewhere.

3.Two Jrs and a soph.One started,the other two were backups.All 3 have potential .

So there were 6?

Burg kid, 3 Mississippi kids, West Virginia kid and the kicker?

[PirateFan[69]]

Burg managed to put about 8 yrs of dominance together in their history. Ironton however dominated locally for a straight decade.

Pfft. Ya not Ashland. Ashland is the one quality reg seaaon opponent. Burgs a small school ( like Ironton) that is mostly competitive locally.. SEO programs are SOFT.

Heard they were gonna change the mascot from a jolly buccaneer to a Ridgewood doormat.

Btw. SOUTH CHARLESTON OR CABELL MIDLAND would RAPE burg. LOL

What’s irontons state championship winning percentage out of their appearances?

[PirateFan[69]]

“Holden = average” how so?
“Small school” he led that small school to a ncaa tournament birth as a freshman and led the horizon as a freshman in many areas

Apparently you know much more about Ironton’s football team than their own fans Ok to answer your question, I was in correct. We had 4 transfers. 1) I believe from Mississippi (do not have confirmation on that) but I’m pretty sure. 2) moved in from WV. 3) a kid from Burg (don’t know the whole story to that) 4) a kid from Canton. Now only one of those players were starters and the others did not get much playing time. So we had a total of 4. I don’t understand your thinking process about transfers. Again who cares. You had a quarterback transfer in a couple weeks before the season started. It’s like the pot calling the kettle black. Move on. I can think of 6 kids of the top of my head that transferred to Burg in the past 2 years or so not including the quarterback. Nobody cares!!

The Kicker is not a transfer, he goes to Ironton St Joseph which doesn't have football. He can play at Ironton because of OHSAA's rule.

How many starting Seniors does the Pirates lose from this year?

[ohbuckeye2]

Burg will win the next two regionals possibly three. They will be in the state championship at least one of the next two maybe both.

That's what you think, I think you Burg fans will be on here posting your usual excuses this time next year. If this hadn't happened, it that had happened, the game was closer than the score, blah blah blah.

You’ll see

All of them. Lol

[wobycat]

Burg will be pretty good.

Offense high points: they will have the twins back and their TE. The running back as a sophomore averaged around 8 yards a carry. His brother his dynamic in his own right. Big TE

Defense high points: starting linebackers return. Corner play will be good again. Defensively I think they will be pretty quick.

Burg will be good again as long as they can piece together a line. How good will be determined by their line play.

Sorry your zing isn’t that effective after you made the comment that you could coach kirtland just as well as Tiger.

Screenshot those exact words please. If you’re going to quote me, at least get it right and don’t say I said something other than what I did say. I’m still waiting on the reasoning of why that doesn’t help? I asked but, never got an answer from you
