Should be an interesting discussion tonight. Coach Phillips will be on the podcast with Kurt Hess, Kyle Sirl, Dan Kopp, and Sal Guagliardo. I would expect NIL and the portal will be two big topics. 8pm tonight. Link: https://t.co/XACS3QpNgD

New Youngstown State coach Ethan Faulkner’s staff, source told
@TheFieldOf68
   

Danny Reese: retained

Dwaine Osborne: head coach at D2 Charleston (WV)

Mark Richmond: head coach at D2 Notre Dame College (OH). Was on staff at YSU first two years of Calhoun era

Anthony Johnson: assistant/ player development at Ole Miss

Evan Faulkner: associate head coach Univ of Pikeville (KY). Also Ethan’s brother. 

Rocco Nofli: retained/moved to new position.
Pretty impressive he was able to land two D2 head coaches as assistants on his staff. Obviously the situation at Notre Dame College, with it dissolving, helped Mark Richmond return here, but Dwaine Osborne's squad just went to the D2 Sweet 16 this past season. They went 29-5 this season.

Thought his staff was finalized as he had two assistants present at the press conference.  Makes no sense.
Not sure how having 2 staff members at his press conference would translate to having a complete staff finalized?

Anyhow, first transfer to commit is Canisius Guard Siem Uijtendaal. Averaged 13.3ppg for Canisius this past season.

The transfers are coming soon enough. We will be fine. Can't be comparing to a timeline of last year considering we had to go through the process of losing our head coach and then hiring his replacement over a period of time. Also Coach Faulkner has been finalizing his staff which will help him finalize the roster of transfers in the coming weeks.

Looks like the version of the message board they use has an upgrade:

Perhaps they can upgrade things to stop the spam. This thread over there has some posts on what can be done to slow the spam posts: https://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=531660.msg3776163#msg3776163

Well there are still 114,000 alumni that did not sign onto such a drastic (in my opinion) measure. Regardless of who is President or who is on the Board, the support for this great University from the Mahoning Valley and our Alumni base must continue. We should be proud YSU boasts the largest endowment of the four state colleges in Northeast Ohio, despite having the least number of lifetime alumni among those institutions.

Also, it has been reported in multiple news articles that this endeavor to renovate Beeghly is 100% being funded by outside donors. Kudos to Coach Calhoun for leaving a lasting mark on Youngstown State University!

“@RumorsCoach: Ethan Faulkner is the heavy favorite at Youngstown State and it may happen today“

Link: https://x.com/rumorscoach/status/1774050550528508042?s=61

I figured he would be the guy being he has the title Associate Head Coach and seems poised to take the next step. Curious if going internal will help keep the remaining roster intact.

@Samurai_hoops: Early indications to The Dojo are that Youngstown St is strongly considering promoting from within…#StayTuned

My guess would be Ethan Faulkner.

@PeterThamel: Sources: Utah State is finalizing a deal to hire Jerrod Calhoun as the school’s next head coach. He’s the head coach at Youngstown State, which he’s led to back-to-back 20-win seasons for the first time in school history.

Coach Calhoun appears to be a finalist for the Utah State job now that Toledo’s coach turned them down:
@TrillyDonovan: The other Todd and Jerrod Calhoun are the next men up at Utah State.

According to WKBN press release ONLY the wooden bleachers will be replaced as part of Phase 1 starting in May.
I don’t think that story gave an accurate assessment of what is being done.

Read this Trib article that goes in detail of the types of chairbacks for the lower section and the upper section:
https://www.tribtoday.com/sports/local-sports/2024/02/beeghly-center-scores-2m-seating-upgrades/

“The old wooden bleachers on the upper tier of both sides and the existing red seatbacks in the bottom tier will be removed and replaced with new and improved seatbacks.

The student section, pep band and general admission bleachers above the baselines will remain.

Strollo said the new seats will be wider and will have additional depth between rows for increased legroom. The chairbacks in the lower tier will have armrests and cup holders installed into each seat, while the upper tier chairbacks will not have armrests or cup holders.”

Wright State Head Coach Scott Nagy has landed the SIU job which Calhoun interviewed for. We will see what other schools he interviews with this offseason.
