The next YSU Head Football Coach

[ysupenguins14]

I'm not buying the Tim Tyrrell rumor.  I think we will be pleasantly surprised with the final choice.  It's a good sign there has hardly been any leaks so far.

Speculation or know something?

I could see Bob Davie being hired. He and New Mexico parted ways. He has some health issues (I think heart issues) and the Clevland Clinic is one of the best (if not the best in America) for heart problems..

He isn't likely being chased down with job offers and he is an alumnus that may even desire health care coverage.

Just complete speculation on my part but I don't see us getting a proven commodity with our price point.  As I've said before you get what you pay for.  Sometimes you get lucky but the odds are against you.

Mike Stoops?

  I think what chief heard on Tim Tyrrell is accurate.  That he interviewed the best and had the best plan for the program.  Tyrrell now the favorite.  I am not an insider, I get my info from someone who works in athletics, and he usually is spot on.

 He said Mallory likes Indiana State and if he ever left it would be for FBS, also said that Zordich came with no plan or vision, and that Montgomery's interview was fine, but that Strollo and Tressel prefer to move on from the Wolford and Pelini era.  He also said Montgomery wants the job badly, that he is blowing up donors and boosters phones here in town.

I for one don't think this is a quick fix.  The best teams in our conference are young(other than Illinois State last year, they had many seniors) and this will be a process.  We lost league games by 39,35, and 25.

 I don't have any other names.

I add this as comic relief.  Many of you will remember the banned poster who called himself Paladin.  He is currently pontificating on a high school site called Yappi Football that has a thread about the YSU opening.  He has stolen every scrap of information secured by chief, 1990, and others and presented it there as his own "findings."  Still the consumate loser.

He's a clown.

On a good day (there were some, just not enough) Paladin stimulated conversation and diverse thought, but he was such a hater the choice to ban was the right one.  He was, by any measure, a loser!

Heard the same about Tyrel. Front runner.

A loser? Geez.

BTW, aren't you the guy who called a 15 year old child who was raped a "sl*t"?

Let's be real..Any coach could look great at Hoban, LaSalle or Massillon with the way they recruit. For what it's worth the coaches at LaSalle and Massillon are better then Tyrrel.  Remember the time Gerry Faust  left mighty Cincinnati moeller to coach the Irish? That didn't go so well and the university looked like fools..this will be know different if they hire Tyrrel.  Certainly didn't see Tyrrel and Hoban send any recruits our way in recent memory. Hopefully Strollo and J.T. will do the right thing here and get a polished or upcoming coach that has experience from the MAC or other lower level FBS programs

Anyone hear or know what the timeline is, or if there is a timeline?

[YSUFANSINCE1990]

  Fever, all indications are that Tyrrell will be the next coach.  It is a gamble regardless what direction they go.  You never know with this.  God rest Joe Malmisur's soul, but he wanted Gerry Faust in 1985, and had to settled for Jim Tressel, it worked out well.

 We are not going to get coaches from the FBS level to come here, assistants at FBS for the most part make more money than we pay as a head coach.  Eric Wolford makes 600 K as offensive line coach at South Carolina, that is more than double what we pay.

I hear he will be introduced on Saturday.

I definitely see you point, Fever, and remember the Faust fiasco very well.  One difference here is that when Tyrrell arrived at Hoban, the football program was nothing special, the weak step-brother to SVSM.  Tyrrell recruited the best players in metro Akron, then extended his reach all across northeastern Ohio.  He turned Hoban into a monster, in some years the best high school program in the state regardless of classification.  I figure if he could induce the parents of 8th graders to allow their son to commute over 40 miles to play for him at Hoban, he could persuade 12th graders to play for him at YSU.  And his recruiting would be legal.

Would he be the best choice?  Perhaps given our financial constraints.  If it happens, I am going to defer to Tressel's judgment.  As I mentioned before, he does not want to retire from the presidency with the football program in shatters.

[go guins]

To say that Faust failed going to an FBS major program at Notre Dame so we shouldn't hire Tyrrel is like saying since Jimmy Carter was the worst POTUS of the 20th century we should never elect another Democratic president.........well maybe not the best example, but you get my point.
You are guilty of very faulty logic.  MANY great coaches started in high school before moving to college.  Pick the right guy, you will be rewarded, pick wrong and you won't, but to hang in on Jerry Faust is silly.

Per football scoop, other candidates who have interviewed besides the ones mentioned here are Don Treadwell, Doug Phillips and Mike Sullivan.

I believe it's down to Tyrrell and Monty.
