YSU Penguin Athletics > YSU Penguin Athletics
Toledo defensive coordinator Jon Heacock named interim head coach
ysubigred:
Heacock did more with less than the previous clown (Wolford) and the jury is out on BP?!? 1st year not so good >:(
Penguin Nation:
Wolf > JH versus UNI and P5 schools.
I'd say that JH had the same resources as JT, but the truth is JH had more....much more. JH was handed a playoff caliber team...built and ready....all that was required was maintaining it. JT had to build the program when he took over.
paladin:
Yes, its funny how the cheerleaders here want to bend the truth. The good old boy crowd is alive and well. Heacock has one thing going for him at Toledo -- as much as he dislikes recruiting , its easier to recruit at Toledo than YSU. Higher quality athletes there than here. Bigger budget.
Still, its possible to screw that up ! ;D

How do you see Toledo as "easier" recruting than YSU? The athletes may be better, but they have to be better to compete at 1-A Bigger budget counts only if it is bigger than competitors, which I don't think it is. At YSU you are competing with Akron, Kent, Dayton etc for talent. It Toledo you are competing with Big10, how do they have a "bigger budget" etc? Again, you make no sense.
paladin:
YSU competes against the MAC for area players. FBS vs. FCS. Toledo competes against the MAC for players ( E. Mich. BG, C. Mich, etc )AND the LOWER B1G. That , in fact, brings in better players. Toledo has a bigger budget than YSU. It does NOT have to be as big as low level, losing B1Gs . It competes with MAC schools with similar budgets, all bigger than YSU. But Toledo has a winning tradition.
This is laughable -- Kent is a MAJOR losing program and still gets better players than YSU. Look at the area talent that picks Kent over YSU. Akron sucks and yet area stars pick them over YSU.
The point is if Heacock does end up the HC there, even as much as he hates recruiting and didn't do well at it here, he should do better there -- major program, winning tradition , FBS vs FCS, and bigger budget than YSU but same as the MAC, etc.
However, he IS capable of screwing it up. 8)
