What do you expect from a Pelini football team?

Since the days of Dike Beede, YSU had NEVER hired a new coach who had previous head coaching experience on the collegiate level. For the first time, there will be no on-the-job training.

Great point.

You guys do realize that it is not the head coach that makes halftime adjustments, but rather the OC and DC right? Why does Wolf get all the blame for the past couple years of these non-existent adjustments when the blame should be put on Montgomery, Kravitz, Tracey, and (not really) Bryant?

The buck stops at the top, they are in charge, hence they get the blame.

But paladin says Bo being coach will have ZERO difference on attendance.....
YOUNGSTOWN
The full impact of Jim Tressel as president of Youngstown State University and Bo Pelini as YSU’s football coach is not yet completely known.
But YSU Athletic Director Ron Strollo has noticed some trends that he believes could lead to big things in the future.
“In my 20 years, we have never seen this amount of interest at this point in the year in buying tickets,” Strollo said. “It has everything to do with Bo being named coach.”
When Pelini was selected as coach in mid-December, the excitement of having the Cardinal Mooney graduate and former University of Nebraska football coach as the field marshal of YSU’s football team already had started to build.
Rumors of Pelini coming back to Youngstown had started after Eric Wolford was fired.
Season tickets, which run $99 for reserved season tickets and $77 for general admission season tickets, typically start to sell in the spring for the upcoming season.
Not this time.
The YSU ticket office already has had people buy 2015 season tickets, and some have purchased Penguin Club Gridiron memberships. Some also are buying more tickets at once — purchasing six tickets instead of four, for example. The waiting list for suites in the stadium has also increased.
As a result, business around YSU is expected to pick up.
