Mallory lost his quarterback in the first or second game and that tanked his season as he had no capable replacement. It would be better to judge him on 2018. He is interesting to me because Indiana State might be one of the very worst jobs in FCS. If he came here, he would be able to secure better players and many more of them.
There is no "slam dunk" choice. Everybody is a gamble. Tressel's legacy (the athletic part) is on the line with this selection. And he knows it.

This hire has no impact on Tressel’s legacy at Youngstown State at all! His athletic legacy here has already been sealed with his 4 National Championships. And his mission right now is SO MUCH BIGGER than the football program. He has done amazing things as President of the University and his impact on both the University and the area will be felt many years to come.
With that being said, my only hope with the next hire is that the Athletic Department does not feel any obligation to hire a local guy for the job. The recent hires in the other sports have been good so I’m hopeful we will finally get the right guy for the job. It will be interesting to see how much talent was truly left of the roster for the next guy. I’m concerned due to the recruiting record of our previous staff. I think, in the end, the Penguins were bailed out by LSU because change was needed, the culture of the program had gone bad.
FOOTBALLFEVER:
Did coach Nic- Mckissic Luke and Devin Jordan both leave the football program? Could not find them on athletic website
goodnews:
Also appears the Offensive Line Coach and his Son are gone too.

They lost do Dayton last year and if anything the season was mediocre and mirrored ours. Beat the real bad teams and had offensive struggles at times. But if him I will give him a chance. Don’t know his recruiting style etc. But I think he likes to run the ball.

YES last season pretty much mirror ours... which is a HUGE testament to coaching because I state doesn’t have the legacy, facilities, fan base etc. that we have. The fact that Mallory’s program was pretty much as good as Bos Over the last few years despite these challenges is impressive
goodnews:
I think we need to keep perspective when comparing teams. Indiana State and YSU were equally as BAD not equally as GOOD. Both programs had horrible losses. Indiana State lost to Dayton and YSU to Butler the previous year. However, ISU beat YSU both years. I think its important to hire the right guy that can attract the right asst coaches.
