I spent over 2 decades buying Penguin Club seats for FB and often attended home YSU BB games almost as long. Thats alot of time and expense if I WASN'T a fan. I could have done other things and spent my $$$ elsewhere. In fact for years , I read this board and NEVER registered or posted. Watched as HLecter "butchered" people on here. Laughed at the ridiculous comments posted and the dumb arguments made. Rolled on the flooring laughing at the stupid "analysis" made on the FB program................ and finally when I could take no more, came on and told you the straight of what was going on and what was going to happen. Some clowns here then made fun of me......................... until my predictions couldn't be laughed at because they had come true. Suddenly , you said I wasn't a fan. Still , I continued to buy Penguin Club seats for FB and attend some BB games. But it became VERY OBVIOUS that the owner of this board and many of his cronies in the cheerleader seats had an obvious love affair with a poor HC, no matter how long he lost and how poor a recruiter he was. Then, the same gang demonstrated their love affair with an incompetent AD who single handedly destroyed men's BB and almost did the same for women's BB. He should have long ago been fired and much of the underperforming athletic dept. But you see, there is a GOOD OLD BOY CLUB here . Defend incompetent Heacock . Defend incompetent Strollo. Defend incompetent athletic dept. Attack Paladin for pointing out some truth and major sins around this place. While I post here still, I stopped buying Pengu9in Club seats for FB two seasons ago and this is the 3rd season I stopped coming to BB. You see, I'm a reflection of attendance here as people quit coming to see incompetence instead of excellence. Now in my circles, we still talk about the good old days when winning was the normal, BB too. You would be amazed after you get off this good old boy board and hear what the locals ACTUALLY say about the coaches and players. Even here, you can read about calls for recruiting more Ytown area players ( a receipe for disaster) to get some local D-II athletes some D-I schollies or part schollies so they came live at home yet have the no expense of going to school. Help and undeserving kid and screw YSU. Lots of folks know the game and how its played. So everytime I read where I'm not a fan, I laugh and read the good old boys who claim to be fans while cheerleading incompetence and demanding the recruiting of sub- D-I players from the area who doom the program from winning. Let me put it another way................... lots here really don't care about winning. They only care about not complaining about YSU , keeping controversy from YSU and protecting their good old boy coach, AD and athletic dept knuckleheads. The truth be damned . Just promote the university and shut up people who point out the problems.
You want me to "offer" a solution ? Fire the AD. Fire the athletic dept. Keep the coach until his contract runs out. No extensions. Strollo has had enough years to screw it up. The athletic dept has had enough years to screw it up. Give Bo his contract to win big and make the playoffs. Then fire him if he doesn't.
Stop with the good old boys club. Attendance won't be back until this place looks "clean " . Oh, and nothing wrong with opinions. Did you ever stop to think YOU are wrong ? And are only trying to suppress the truth that others know and understand ?
And now, back to the comedy.
