Here is a portion of Paladin's OP on AGS:
"YSU football is in trouble, the U has financial problems and the decision to bring back a men's BB coach who has produced nothing in 11 seasons but losers isn't setting well. The athletic dept is in shambles."
Let's dissect it:
"YSU football is in trouble..."
A legendary program that was the "Team of the 90's" has one playoff season in the 15 years of the Strollo era. A 5-6 record last season. A controversial OC returning.
Although I am cautiously optimistic about this year, I do see big red flags. If I see #6 on the field versus WVU then I'll go on the record as saying 2016 will be a re-packaged 2015 with no playoffs.
Saying the program is in trouble, IMO, is an overstatement, but not by much.
"the U has financial problems"
duh. Most public Universities do. Tressel has improved the outlook considerably though, but even he would admit he has financial concerns.
"the decision to bring back a men's BB coach who has produced nothing in 11 seasons but losers isn't setting well"
Understatement, although so few care about MBB in the Strollo era that there are so few to be outraged. Absurd doesn't come close to describing it.
"The athletic dept is in shambles."
100% percent accurate. The AD is dangerously inept, and the lost revenue because of his neglect of the revenue generating sports likely is in the millions, and just like interest and debt compounds, so does lack of revenue, as that funding would've developed those programs further.
Banning someone doesn't change reality.
