Yes he does have issues to work out. An NCAA basketball tournament berth and first round win would be more exposure for YSU than all 4 FCS titles combined. FCS is irrelevant to everyone but us fools that follow it for our schools.

Why basketball sucks. First, the court dimensions and hoop height are very small for the sizes of the player today. Many of these players don't even need to actually jump to get the ball in the hoop. It's like watching young kids playing with an adjustable hoop and lowering it to play. Something needs to be done about this in my opinion. Secondly the f***ing horns are so annoying. Third, the contact isn't like football and boxing, it's glorified soccer with a lot of acting (constantly ). Finally, of the game is close, which is what you want to see. The last 5 minutes, which lasts approximately 1 hours, is just painful to watch. The end of the games are dragged out with fouling etc. if it was a contact sport running into or hitting someone wouldn't be considered a foul.
It's a non-contact sport.

You're complaining.... about a horn? Good grief, we're reached a new level of stupid.

The horn is annoying and the reason the penalty flag was invented in football

Lol I enjoy both football and basketball. I will say though, an NCAA tournament birth is much more meaningful than an FCS football championship. The FCS is completely irrelevant. Playing in the MAC is better then a pointless FCS.

Interesting take on things, 64 teams make the NCAA tournament while only one can win a title in FCS. Hard to compare. The mac is a low end league but it would be nice to be playing in a league with some of those schools if only because of the interest due to how close they are.

I love football, but the amount of people that will tune into the FCS championship game is far less than the amount that would watch NC-Duke basketball on a random Tuesday night.

coach just announced in his weekly MBB press conference that the Wright State at YSU game will be Broadcasted on ESPN2 nationally from YSU. I believe there will be another game to be broadcasted later on ESPN.
Speaking of national exposure for YSU, do we really think any YSU regular FCS football game will be shown nationally on ESPN. Don’t get me wrong, I am a football guy (over basketball). But, facts are facts. As I recall, the only FCS YSU home game ever on ESPN was the playoff game against Air McNair(Jackson Stays?).
Go penguins.
