Fans=money and sometimes can contribute to wins.
Fans can also influence recruits and families when they attend games.
They also can influence others to attend games and tailgates.
Money helps with recruiting and retention of good coaches.
Money drives the train and decides what type of engine we have and how well the track is maintained.
It also pays good salaries to a crew that contributes little....but that is another topic.
Recruiting and good coaches =winning.
Which also brings in fans, money, better recruits and a good coaching staff.
Most people in Youngstown are so stupid they think Mooney and Ursuline football is good football.
In their day they were - as was YSU. Let's focus on YSU please.
YSU is looking to build loges on the other side of the field because corporate sponsorship brings in more money than the pussified fans that can't sit through a rain storm.
....and brings in more money than those of us who sit through the rain and snow.
At least the students have made the Penguin Pack to get more of them to games.
Would like to hear more about that if you would be willing to share!

If he focuses on things he can control, then I believe he will be more successful and YSU will become champions again. And that is what we want at YSU!!!

Very good points and I agree with all of them. My point isn't to underestimate the importance of people attending a game, but rather if "calling out" the fans 4 games into his inaugural season is the best time to do it.
Just focus on what you can control and win games. Does anyone think, "Oh, Bo said we should go to the game, we better buy some tickets......" Probably not.

Penguin Pack link below. By the way the reason why I called out the Mooney and Ursuline fans is because 95% will attend the HS game but ignore YSU. I can provide endless examples and name names here too.

No beef with you and I certainly understand the frustration.
Mooney and Ursuline fans benefit greatly from YSU and don't show their support.
Thanks for the link to Penguin Pack. I wish them great success!
There has been a long standing lack of support from the Youngstown community. Restaurants expect our business but aside from the MVR, how many even display ANY type of Penguin pride? I called out the manager of a business who said that it didn't fit the theme of the restaurant even though they displayed Browns and Steelers flags.
YSU is a great resource and benefit to the Youngstown area and if the people want their town to make a comeback, then support who supports you!
The YO Show:
For the record, The penguin pack was formed by students, but the whole thing is orchestrated by the athletic department. The three students in charge are receiving scholarships or at least that was the plan. The atheltic department was trying to encourage student participation.
I think it was a great idea though.
