Good mention on Sims, Scarlet. It will be interesting. I think Simms is more of an X's and O's & he was very active on the field during games. I am not sure he has as much responsibility at  Pitt & not sure he is much of a strategist. I will tell you one thing ...Shane Montgomery is a quality strategist. Now that he is here .. Carl Pelini is one he!! of a coach as well.

IAA:  From what I heard, Sims could break down the opponents game plan, but was held too much in check by the past two DC's as it went against their philosophy more than game plan.   I don't think Sims ever had the responsibility at YSU to change the course of the defense.  He certainly didn't keep fresh legs on the field and I heard him say that he was obligated to play the full scholarship kids first.  Not sure what his reasoning was and he didn't elaborate.  Narduzzi runs the show without a doubt just as Carl Pelini does; however, I believe Pitt has a much better supporting cast.

As far as Shane Montgomery being a quality strategist, I haven't been impressed, but I am not here to argue that point.  I certainly hope you are correct in that observation!  We had a few glimpses of a hurry up offense that seemed to work well compared to watching the game clock evaporate.  New regime - New season.

Considering the practices being "open" but closed if construction forces them to the WATTS, I wonder how much coverage we will see of fall practices?

Question:
Students come back on the 19th.  Is there any where on campus that these "hype videos" can be played that the students can easily view?  Seems like a good promotional opportunity and a way to generate interest.

Solomon Warfield, a DB transfer from Iowa is on the roster. Played high school ball at St. Ed's.

Article i read says he was "an area code away from playing time" at Iowa. With our depth at db this year from other transfers and original recruits, not sure if he will have an impact here?

Always good to have more depth.

They should be playing this hype video in the YSU Bookstore from the time it opens until the time it closes each day non stop all day long.
