I definitely agree that Ironton plays the toughest schedule; by far, in Lawrence County. As a whole; Lawrence County does not produce much D1 talent;( I think Ironton is THE ONLY SCHOOL that has sent players to D1 - 4 or to
OSU) much less Big Ten talent,. due to the size of the school, competition and etc.,. What I am saying is., Chris' numbers may look great against that comp;however, if he does this @ the Army AA game comp too ?!?! Then I will be more than happy to say I am wrong. Whereas, I know he hits like a train,. and that will stay the same regardless of comp. Lastly, Ironton plays some OVC teams ( CG, S. Point) as well as Wheelersburg, Portsmouth West some of the Ky. teams. Many of the OVC teams play those teams as well. That is where I was basing the info. And remember, I would love to see Chris come to
OSU and win the Heisman X 4 !
By the way, enjoy the SP- Ironton game. Does SP have a prayer this year ?

He is one of the best backs ever in that part of the state. Smith may not play the best teams, but if you have the tools they can teach you the rest. Jermon was the best pure running back with the ball many have ever seen, but there is much more to the game than that. And Coopers problem was he never utilized Jacksons talents and allowed him to sit behind Pearson when he could have been blowing games open with an element the other guys did'nt have.
