Green and Lake are designated by OHSAA as being in Uniontown. I can see how there could be confusion.

I have seen this now a few times, Ashland is not playing Green week 1. They are playing Uniontown Lake. Fixed. |

I just checked on yappi on uniontown lake and they edged akron st.vincent-st.mary in their last scrimmage. I look for Ashland to be underdogs in this game with uniontown lake.

Got a chance to check out the new field house at Ashland Community stadium this week. Will be a great addition to the Athletes in Ashland, and will also be much nicer for the visiting teams. The locker rooms are 100 times nicer, will have a training room right next to the locker rooms. Overall a really great facility.

But some wonder if fruit will still be made available for the visiting teams?    |

Think the first night in the OCC went about how I expected. Thought the two toss up games would be. Wooster and Mansfield and they split. 4-3 is a solid start for the OCC.
Hard to know what to think about Ashland last night. In my 20 plus years of watching high school football I’m not sure I have seen Ashland play a team that had the size that Lake did. Good news is Ashland won’t see that again this year, but they have to get things fixed on offense if they want to succeed this year.

I would agree except for the statement about the Mansfield game being a toss up. I would have made Mansfield a definite favorite to win that. Maybe not by a big margin but definitely a win.
Can't imagine they scored 34 points and held Ashland to 7 just because they were big? They have not been a playoff team in recent years maybe they just had a good game.

Lake was big, fast and skilled on Defense. There middle linebacker was 6'2 220 and looked like he should have been playing for Akron on Saturday. Manly it was there secondary that caused the problems for Ashland. Tall corners and safeties that covered really well. Ashland's Offensive line did a nice job with giving time to throw, but no one was open. |

Sounds pretty impressive but being 6'2 220 at linebacker is nothing new to what Ashland has seen. I'm not arguing with what you saw but I was trying to get a little more information on just how good they are or bad Ashland is.
I see that calpreps has Clyde favored this weekend.

Going 2-5 this weekend is not a very good showing for the OCC but seeing wins from Wadsworth, Clyde and Shelby are not surprising.

I tried to have a positive mind with Ashland after week 1, but after 2 weeks I'm starting to think things aren't going to end so good for Ashland this year, which leads me to thinking what Coach Seder has to do to keep his job. It't only been two weeks but Ashland is on pace for their worst offensive season since 2001. Their schedule doesn't get any easier in the next two weeks and they have not proven anything on either side of the ball. I know that this coaching staff was put in a bad situation when Coach V left in May, but this offense is Coach Seder's and its been terrible.

It's been my experience that when a longtime coach turns around a program, then leaves, the writing is on the wall.

They give some different looks, but not like they went to the power I or triple option. It still Coach Seder's offense, he is calling the plays, and its not working. |

Even if he was not the primary play caller, most would still credit the head coach as it being his offense. The question I have is, do you feel the offense not working because of the change in the person calling it or the people executing it? And don't say both. |

I saw what the QB could do last year, he has a few of his top play makers back as well. Yes they lost some talent on offense, but that happens every year. In the past 17 years I have never seen an Ashland offense with a returning QB look so bad. Literally you could have problems everywhere else, but I saw what the offense could do last year with a first time QB. The offense should be way ahead of where it is right now. Last years team averaged 33.4 points a game, they only scored under 21 points once all year and that was the last game of the year to Wooster. This years team after two games is averaging 10.5. Somethings not clicking, and its not a lack of talent. |

Somethings not clicking, and its not a lack of talent. I was thinking the same things but thanks for confirming. I have heard others say Coach V left because of the lack of talent and I am quick to point out a list of the returnees and the fact that he had dealt with graduation every year he was there. I think the results this year are not a sign of talent in the players but rather because of a first year coach. |

Very true, people that say Coach V left because of lack of talent don't know enough about the Ashland program. Honestly that's why he didn't deiced till late to retire because he thought he could do one more year with his starting QB back. |
