This team isn't going anywhere. Will be another quick exit from the Horizon league tournament like always. Then go play in some tournament nobody cares about and lose there as well.

33YO I'm not saying the athletic department doesn't benefit from scheduling Ohio State but what I'm saying is everyone complains when we miss the playoffs with 4 losses and are a bubble team. Well then stop scheduling guaranteed losses and schedule a cupcake game. If you recall that's what Tress did hence why we played Slippery Rock every year. Guess what though we made the playoffs every year and made an impact. Playing OSU then playing the gauntlet of this schedule equals no playoffs. You can disagree but it's the truth.  Hope the money is worth it.

AGAIN - scheduling a cupcake doesn't make a difference for us. The difference is winning the games IN CONFERENCE.

33YO you can argue with me all you want. The bottome line I've been watching YSU games before they were even in a conference so scheduling a cupcake game and not scheduling a guaranteed loss would of got us in this year would have got us in last year. That's how you generate money you stop getting crushed by FBS teams and you consistently make the playoffs and make a run at a Natty. The money game has kept us out in 2005 crushed by Pitt, 2007 crushed by Ohio State, 2013 crushed by Michigan State. All years we ended up with 3 or 4 losses and kept out by 1 game. Again, hope the money is worth it.

They need to stop scheduling teams like Ohio State.  Had they not scheduled that game they would be sitting with 3 losses heading into a winnable game and more than likely the playoffs. Your season shouldn't come down to having to beat the number 1 team in the country that hasn't lost since last September to Iowa and won the title last year. Consistently making the playoffs is good for recruiting not getting crushed by FBS schools but it's all about the money sadly, so hope that money was worth another year of no playoffs .  Also get out of this conference. Doesn't matter how good the conference is when you get your balls beat in year in and year out. Back in the Gateway we couldn't beat Western Kentucky, Southern Illinois, and UNI. Now it's the Dakota schools.  Just over the same garbage year in and year out.

Need to stop scheduling guaranteed loss games like Ohio State. Yes we got the money but if it counts against you making the playoffs it's dumb. Your program gets noticed by consistently being in the playoffs and making a run like 2016 not losing to some FBS team by 4 touchdowns.

Yall b**** too much. Handicap parking is provided that's where the responsibility of the university ends. They charge 5.00 dollars and news flash you don't tell them you are tailgating you pull in pay the 5 and do what you want.

Doesn't being on probation disqualify us from post season play even if we do win out?

Ohh I missed the link of Bo personally going up to wofford players after the game and recognizing them for a hard fought game, but of course lets focus on the negative.  Try sticking to what you know which is getting your a$$ beat my MVFC teams 😂.

You are right, it isn't a board about weed. It's just hard to ignore messages like " weed is going to ruin their lives."  It's 2016 not 1950 so if someone is going to comment about it please be educated.

Still just an opinion and as valid as yours. If not more given what just happened. The rule is simple, I am simply amazed that this happened ...if indeed it did.

It's actually not an opinion.  The medicinal benefits of it have been proven. So safe to say it's not ruining anyone's life.

Do you peoole know anything regarding copyright laws?  You can't use the YSU logo without receiving permission from the university. You can't just use the logo anywhere you feel like and have it be ok because you are a student or whatever.

Everyone is failing to see one important thing.  The loges were packed and that is where the money is. As well as the die hard fans like us that sat in the stands cheering.  Even with as scarce as it was yesterday the University I can assure didn't lose money even after bidding to host yesterday.

People should be shamed for not attending games.  I've been going to games since I was a kid and I'm 34 now.  They have been bad for a long time but if you are a true follower you will support the team or you will make excuses bottom line.

I notified the Vindicator that it's televised on Root Sports, so it should be in the paper tomorrow or Saturday.
