As long as YSUs future is in the MVFC I think the next coach must come from there too....

Funny to me that they loose one game and the world is coming to an end... This one is on the players as much as the coaching staff.   This was an easy win with out the BS mistakes.  You can blame all you want but the base game plan was not that bad... Execution on the other hand........

During a recent interview, coach talked about how he has discussed with his colleagues how to prepare throughout the week for opponents.  He mentioned in the past Friday was a light day.  However, this year he changed his philosophy and they go "hard" on Fridays.  So if it isnt his fault or the coaches who can we blame?  The players and coaches have changed but the results havent.   He is the captain of this ship and if he cant get these young men to focus, perform,execute and win give the keys to someone else.  Just like Wolf there are many young coaches looking to make a name for themselves and YSU is as good as any to do that.

So in what direction do we turn?  Would it not be best to hire a successful head coach from the ranks of the lower scholarship divisions?  No more on-the-job training that might never succeed.  And Wolford is the poster boy for that.  Hire someone who can utilize the Watts and the high assistant coach salaries to our advantage.  Also something at which Wolford failed miserably. 

The national media loves to trash Tressel, but he is nearly universally respected within the coaching profession.  I have confidence that he will use his network to secure a replacement who can take full advantage of our many strengths.  Who better to find the "next Tressel" that the original Tressel.
