1a4ysu and coach

ysufan0505:
Can we hire a coach that gets us to the FCS playoffs first?

guinpen:
I think that patience is the key here. I believe that it is only a matter of time before the landscape of college football has some profound changes.

Certainly YSU does not have the cash to go to 1A as it is right now. In the same vain leagues like the mac do not belong in the same classification as the sec. At some point the real big boys will distant themselves from the 1A posers forcing the low end 1A schools to  rethink. My guess would be that the low end 1A and top end 1AA will merge.

This does not mean that YSU will ever be in the mac because they just do not want us, real simple. But we would be able to play them home and home and that will help

ValleyTalk:
The only discussion I've heard over the past years was a move for football only which would be cheaper than doubling our athletic budget.

However, as it stands, I'm against such a move. We need to be a top level program in our conference consistently (ala UNI) before we get into that discussion.

1a4YSU:
That is the best situation. However, YSU has passed those opportunities. Too many universities moved to FBS. YSU can not recruit the players to compete in FCS. The competition is too great with all the universities moving to FBS. The New Hampshires, the Dakotas and other far out regions of the U.S. have different recruiting possibilities. YSU can not compete with the far out regions of the U.S. recruiting areas. YSU needs to go to FBS. YSU will be very successful in FBS.

1a4YSU:
Observer says YSU has no tradition. Are you being goofy to attract attention or do you seriously believe such.
YSU was one of the most recognized programs in the U.S. , that is tradition. Unfortunately there are many as yourself that are disgustingly cynical.  Be positive, be supportive of a great program that can be successful again.
