John Haneline has been announced as the new LB coach. He was previously the defensive run coord. & D-Line coach at Western Illinois.

Seems to somewhat of a local guy. NW Ohio.

Somebody please explain how this is a good hire.  Western Illinois had one of the worst defenses in the country for the past several years.

hearing that Jahmal Brown from Lenore-Rhyne will be named defensive coordinator.. pretty solid get if you ask me.

 Agree on the questionable hire.  Haneline played at Bowling Green, Phllips coached there, maybe he knew him from BG.   If Brown is the new D coordinator, he too played at BG.

I could not agree more. Very much a classic YSU defensive guy. Moving up awfully fast. This will be his 3rd stop as a DC, moving up each time.

John Peterson has left to join Fickell's staff at UC with an off field position.

Also, YSU has hired Christian Dukes as DB coach. Was previously at Tiffin.

Dukes might help with with recruiting down around Cincy like he went to HS down there and was a 3 star recruit played at Toledo.  I wonder if Heacock recruited him when he was there.  Looks like a go getter and a good hire to me.

Josh Sinagoga, who was previously the WR coach has moved to QB coach and Armon Binns, former Cincinnati Bearcat WR has been hired as WR coach. He was at Cincy as a QC under Fickell.

Seems like we are continuously downgrading. Looks like personality is becoming more important than ability. Building ourselves into a solid DII program?
