YSU Penguin Athletics / Re: Signing Day Updates

http://www.news-herald.com/sports/20171126/mentor-football-qb-tadas-tatarunas-could-fall-into-a-college-coachs-lap-opinion I realize Jayden Cunningham has committed to the Guins, but this quarterback from Mentor in my opinion is the best overall quarterback in Ohio. Sounds like he got behind the 8 ball in the recruiting process and since this article has picked up a few D-1 offers and a preferred walk on status from Ohio St.. Bo should make him a offer

I would rather him go after Drew Barker and let Cunningham Red shirt

He is the one I have been blaming for plyer development ...I sure hope I am wrong.

Sorry IAA. Your wrong on this one... He’s one defensive coach that wouldn’t be a bad hire as DC.  Personally I would like to see them hire someone not with the program right now to bring in a fresh look. But would not have a issue with McNutt being named DC

I'll be disappointed if someone from within is promoted.

Hopefully that doesn’t happen Chief.
I would love to see someone come in and take a fresh approach to both sides of the ball.

No fresh approach needed on D. That hasn't been the problem under Bo. Definitely need a complete re tooling of the offense.

You’d be surprised by the shenanigans that are going on with the D..... it needs a new face believe me

Need to get someone in here quick and he and Bo need to bring a QB with them.

Go to the Football coaches page.
Carl has been taken off
Shane has not
Until someone can post something other than hearsay I don’t believe he has gone anywhere

Agreed!!! So what did Santa bring Penguin fans this year? Only one Penguin item in the IAA house this year ... I bought my 2-year old grandson a Guins stocking cap.

My son brought me his game worn jersey framed and some swag.
Hope you all had a very Merry Christmas

Of the three top coaches in our program (HC, OC & DC) the worst one is staying on. I do ntot mean this as a Bo slam. Let's be serious, we have (had) the best coordinators at our level. I may not have liked some of Carl's play-calling, but that does not mean that he isn't quite successful at what he does with less-than-exceptional talent. I have always been a fan of Shane.

To have both sides of the ball leave is usually pretty damning to a club.

Once again. Have not seen anything on him leaving except speculation on this board. 
Sorry not buying it

Stoops can have the title. Defense isn't going to change. It's Bo's style.

That’s why I think it’s 75% for Stoops. Would you want to come in and run a defense under Bo

Shane Montgomery also interviewed for the Robert Morris head coaching job.  He didn't get this job, they already hired someone else.

He was one of the 3 finalists.

This will probably bring the Montgomery haters out of the woodwork, but for my money, it will at least fix the problem of an OC who wants a classic drop back pocket passer and a HC who wants a run/pass threat at QB.  Now we have Mays and Cunningham as run/pass QBs and Craycraft who is a drop back guy and Shane wants one style and Bo the other. 
On the coaching side, what is the likelyhood that Stoops moves to DC to replace Pelini?  (or anybody else on staff?)

I would say the chances are about 75% that Stoops takes over the defense.

Just heard not a done deal yet. Tressel is trying to keep Carl around trying to sweeten his deal. Nothing signed yet.

It’s a done deal he’s gone

Add another. Zach Farrar. A 6-3 WR. Was a 3 star recruit out of high school with major offers. Chose Oklahoma last year and redshirted then transferred down to JUCO for this past season. Was also drafted in the 26th round in the MLB Draft. Big pickup!

Was a Mississippi State commit at one time. Big time player

Before we get all sexed up on this OSU TE transfer, I have two words of caution:  Louis Irizarry
Apparently what could have been a very sad story seems to have a happy ending, but from a football prospective it was a bust.

Wow really Comparing this kid who has had zero off the field issues to a guy who was sent to prison. Classy.

I could give a sh** less about off field issues.  I was about the only guy on here for giving Richmond a second chance.  My note was about Irizarry being a highly recruited TE at OSU who was -0- on the field, who transferred to YSU and when on to be a bust on the field here too!  The QB at Pitt and Hawkins from OSU were both highly recruited and total busts at the 1A schools, one, both, or neither of them could do something at 1AA, but there is absolutely -0- guarantee.   Go look at the hype when Trent Hosick was a highly recruited QB for then national power Missouri.  He was a -0- there, OK at JUCO and basically -0- here. 

All I am saying is don't get to sexed up over somebody else's bust.  To be candid, we were all excited to get the LB Pollock or Pollard or whoever to transfer and so far -0-.  Same for Durkin, so far -0-  Maybe the transfers will contribute, maybe not.  In my recollection we have had better luck with linemen as JUCO transfers than skilled players.  (mostly kids who can play, but needed academic help)  And truthful, I don't recall having much luck with 1A transfers at any position.
Going back to the Irizarry issue as it relates to the Richmond issue.  We gave both a chance, and the first one, Irizarry is a classic example of a kid growing into a responsible adult and being a success.  Chief, you take a shot at me for "classy"  Well, IMO your knocking Louis as a criminal IS classless. based on what he has done since.   I hope the same for Mil'ik

Wow so now your taking shots at kids who get injured and are going to still have 4 years left to play after their redshirt year and a medical redshirt.  Injuries happen it’s football not cheerleading. But to take a shot at a kid and say he’s contributed Onis classless. You have no idea how he helped on scout team or in the meeting room.
You want to take a shot at coaches or the administration, go for it they are adults and are getting paid a salary. But leave the kids alone, unless of course your name is next to Mayfields on the Heisman

First, lets be clear, injuries DO happen in cheerleading!  Now you are disrespecting the cheerleaders!
I said the kids in question haven't contributed on the field. That is a simple fact, My quote was"   "was -0- on the field".  I also said "one, both, or neither may contribute"  Tell me that is classless, not true or a knock against the kids in question.  You seem out to attack me, I have better things to do the f*** with you, so I'm out.  Maybe later.

No shot at you
Since you add absolutely nothing to the board and attack everything and everyone. Hopefully your maybe later turns into a hopefully never
