If they fire him they better have someone better standing by. I'm sure Tress's connection will help greatly but why rush just because we didnt get into the playoffs. Thats nothing new.

The YSU Board of Trustees will not meet today to discuss head football coach Eric Wolford's future with the team."

"YSU spokesman said no announcement planned today re: Wolford. University's main focus today is on faculty contract vote."

Maybe exploring funding the pay out prior to meeting?  Although I'd like to think this all would've been sorted out prior to the NDSU loss.

  Wolford is done.  My guess they wait til tomorrow, didn't want to overshadow the new contract signed today by faculty.

18-22 in the conference, no playoff berth in 5 years, and program has become irrelevant in our community.  He has no shot to survive.

I believe it. I don't see why they would need another day if his job were safe.

The BOT prioritizing this Union vote over the job of Wolford is clearly the right move and is a no brainer. Kudos.

Six conference titles dating back to last school year. Great facilities for our level. Excellent manager of our tax dollars. He is going nowhere.
