YSU Penguin Athletics / 12 Game Football Season
« on: August 04, 2016, 01:00:12 PM »
Under our current AD, 12 game seasons have resulted in three 1AAA games. Ideally, our 12th game would be the playoffs, but again, we're in the Strollo era.  If the twelfth game was a MAC game, or a second money game, then I'd reluctantly support it.  I'm interested to hear what others thoughts are.

This article touches on the topic:

http://wcfcourier.com/sports/college/uni/football/tough-enough-uni-facing-rugged-schedule/article_a546b54d-74e9-526c-8a7c-0af08b8b0913.html

ST. LOUIS — Mark Farley likes the option play when the subject is scheduling.

The head football coach at Northern Iowa is no stranger to a 12-game regular season. UNI has done it in 2008, 2013 and 2014, for example. Farley would love to have a choice when it comes to expanding the schedule down the road.

“I believe in a 12-game season,” said Farley during Tuesday’s preseason Missouri Valley Football Conference teleconference. “I think it’s good for a lot of reasons for UNI, in my opinion.”

Farley pointed specifically to eight years ago.

In 2008, the Panthers added Nicholls State in the UNI-Dome as a 12th opponent. They won, and then reached the FCS playoff semifinals, losing to eventual champion Richmond.

Adding a home game — that’s one of the advantages, said Farley. Then there’s the possibility of an extra money game by bringing on an FBS school, such as Hawaii in 2014.

“So I think the 12th game is important,” said Farley. “Let the schools make the choice of which is best for them as well as what’s best for the league and the division.”

There is a movement in the FCS to make the 12-game option permanent
. The Ohio Valley and Southland conferences have floated that idea, and it’s likely to be a subject of extensive debate among subdivision members and the NCAA.

As the rules stand now, FCS programs may only play a 12th game in years where there are 13 weekends between Labor Day and just prior to Thanksgiving. That will happen next in 2019. Under the Southland/Ohio Valley plan, the regular season could kick off prior to Labor Day, if programs choose to do so. The 12th game would not be mandatory.

What about the MVFC? According to league commissioner Patty Viverito, the 12-game option has been discussed at meetings in February and June, but it hasn’t met with enthusiasm at the conference level.

“At this time, to be quite frank, it’s really a non-starter for our league,” said Viverito Tuesday. “We are not in support of a 12th game, annually.”

Viverito said moving the season up generated no excitement, nor did the possibility of giving up a bye week. She also pointed to safety concerns.

“That’s a lot of games to be played and, quite frankly, our teams are not just playing in the playoffs but deep in the playoffs,” said Viverito. “If you’re talking about a 12-game season and the possibility of adding five playoff games on top of that, that seems to be a health risk, a safety risk, that is not prudent.”

Meanwhile, UNI begins its 11-game 2016 schedule at Iowa State Sept. 3, followed by the Dome opener against Montana Sept. 10 and the West Coast swing to Eastern Washington Sept. 17. Conference play starts with the Oct. 1 homecoming matchup with Southern Illinois.

“It makes for a rugged schedule, a heck of a challenge,” said Farley of the 11-game slate. “We’ve got to learn from last year and we’ve got to keep our players healthy in camp. But I don’t know if it’s any different than playing Iowa and Wisconsin back-to-back when we did that a few years back.

“So tough is tough. It doesn’t matter who you play in this league or other leagues. I think you have to have depth on your team and you’ve got to stay healthy.”

General BS / The Drug War
« on: June 30, 2016, 01:23:21 PM »
The origins of the Drug War are rooted in racism and political gamesmanship:

"The Nixon campaign in 1968, and the Nixon White House after that, had two enemies: the anti-war left and black people. You understand what I'm saying? We knew we couldn't make it illegal to be either against the war or black, but by getting the public to associate the hippies with marijuana and blacks with heroin, and then criminalizing both heavily, we could disrupt those communities. We could arrest their leaders, raid their homes, break up their meetings, and vilify them night after night on the evening news. Did we know we were lying about the drugs? Of course we did."

 http://www.aol.com/article/2016/03/23/nixon-official-reportedly-admitted-to-racist-origin-of-war-on-dr/21332413/

"Marijuana prohibition also had racist underpinnings. This time it was the Mexicans. Just as cocaine was associated with black violence and irrational behavior, in the southwest border towns marijuana was viewed — beginning in the early 1920s — as a cause of Mexican lawlessness."

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/judge-frederic-block/war-on-drugs_b_2384624.html

Drug Prohibition is advocated for by the Prison Lobby, and continues to exist due to corrupt politicians.



“For-profit prisons are making contracts with states, saying, ‘Guarantee that our prisons will be filled. Guarantee we’ll make a profit,’” says Michael Skolnik, a filmmaker who visited over 100 prisons while researching Lockdown, USA, a documentary about reforming jail sentences for drug offenses. “And how do you guarantee that? You create drug laws,” Skolnik told msnbc. He argues that private prisons reinforce drug sentencing policies that have constituted “a war against black and brown America.”


http://www.msnbc.com/msnbc/presumed-guilty-how-prisons-profit-the

"The two largest for-profit prison companies in the United States – GEO and Corrections Corporation of America – and their associates have funneled more than $10 million to candidates since 1989 and have spent nearly $25 million on lobbying efforts. Meanwhile, these private companies have seen their revenue and market share soar."

If you read his comments, you realize that he is a fan of both YSU and Ytown, but is a critical thinker who is unafraid to express both positive and negative opinions.  IMO, he is well informed and offers a unique perspective, and was an asset to this forum.

I hope the Paladin ban is lifted.  Diversity of opinion is a strength.  Remember...groupthink led to the Bay of Pigs invasion....and who wants that to happen again?  ;)

YSU Penguin Athletics / Budget Woes of the Illinois Schools
« on: February 28, 2016, 08:28:21 AM »
While four MVFC schools have pledged FCOA scholarships (NDSU, SDSU, USD, and UNI), the three MVFC schools in IL are facing a growing fiscal crisis.  Cuts to athletics, namely FB, are not currently being openly discussed.  However, it would seem probable that at some point it will surface in the next few years.  Things may get interesting. 

Re: SIU (remember Randy Dunn?):

"The Southern Illinois University system will take a $40 million cut next year if Gov. Bruce Rauner’s fiscal year 2017 budget proposal is enacted — a fact that SIU President Randy Dunn said could lead to a “wholesale ending of programs” at the university’s three campuses."

"Randy Dunn, president of the Southern Illinois University system, is asking staffers at the system’s three campuses to find ways to cover a potential loss of $49 million in state support."

Re: WIU:

"Western Illinois University announced Friday it would cut $20 million over the next two fiscal years, including cutting 100 jobs, as a result of the state budget impasse and probable reductions to state funding for higher education.

President Jack Thomas says the university has reduced $5 million from its budget for fiscal year 2016, but to meet operational expenditures for July and August, the university needs to cut $4 million more by June 30."

The others:

"An epic budget battle in Illinois led Moody’s Investors Service to downgrade the credit rating of three of the state’s public universities late Wednesday, the latest setback for schools that have been starved of funding for eight months and now face possible accreditation challenges.

Northeastern Illinois University and Northern Illinois University had their credit ratings lowered to just above junk status, while Eastern Illinois University’s rating is now below investment grade. That means analysts consider revenue bonds issued on behalf of the school to be a credit risk for investors.

“The downgrade is driven by EIU’s increasing vulnerability to the ongoing state budget impasse given its thin liquidity, declining enrollment and high reliance on state funding,” Moody’s said in a statement. “Liquid reserves are expected to be exhausted by the end of the fiscal year.”

Moody’s has held a negative outlook on all eight Illinois universities it rates since the fall because of their diminishing cash flow. Analysts said there was no indication that Illinois would allow its public universities to borrow money during the budget impasse, despite the strain the ordeal has placed on their operations.

Universities in Illinois have not seen a dime from the state in eight months..."


https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/grade-point/wp/2016/02/25/illinois-budget-battle-leads-moodys-to-downgrade-several-state-universities/

"All that is a glaring failure on the part of state leaders over several administrations. A college student who mismanaged things this badly would be on academic probation.

Understandably, college administrators and legislators right now are focused on the budget meltdown in Springfield. Because of the deadlock that started July 1, public universities aren’t getting their state funding, and they also have to cover for students who aren’t getting their income-based scholarships from the state.

Eastern Illinois University has already laid off staff. Western Illinois University President Jack Thomas is trying to postpone a plan to cut 50 of 632 full-time faculty positions. Southern Illinois University President Randy Dunn says this year’s underfunding is creating a crisis.

But patching together a state budget for this fiscal year won’t be enough. Illinois higher education resembles infrastructure that’s been jury-rigged with duct tape because of years of disinvestment. Professors aren’t getting raises, fewer classes make it harder for students to meet graduation requirements, employees have been laid off."

YSU Penguin Athletics / Jambar: Why YSU Will Stay in the FCS
« on: February 19, 2016, 04:08:27 PM »
Interesting Jambar article re: moving out of the FCS.  The MAC has the lowest attendance of any FBS conference, and declining ( http://fs.ncaa.org/Docs/stats/football_records/Attendance/2014.pdf ) using 2014 figures.  I'm not sure how long the MAC will remain in it's current state anyway.  Maybe instead of going to the MAC, we should let the MAC come to us?

http://www.thejambar.com/why-ysu-will-stay-in-the-fcs/

Several years ago college football was thrown into chaos as Division I Football Bowl Subdivision conferences tried to reconfigure in order to meet the requirements to create a conference championship game.
 
After a number of teams left their original conferences to join the Big Ten, Atlantic Coastal Conference and Big 12, the smaller conferences looked to fill holes left by some of their most successful teams.
 
The smaller conferences turned to the Football Championship Subdivision. They picked up some of the more-successful programs from the FCS to try to reinstate balance and stay competitive with other FBS conferences.
 
Since the ‘90s, the fans of the Youngstown State University football team had hopes the program would move from the FCS to the FBS. YSU considered a potential expansion team a couple times while YSU President Jim Tressel was the head coach, but the change was never made.
 
YSU Athletic Director Ron Strollo discussed why the Penguins’ football program is content on staying in the FCS and potential avenues YSU might explore if the a change was ever instated.
 
The Mid-American Conference
 
YSU flirted with the Mid-American Conference in the past, but Strollo said YSU is currently not interested in moving to the highest level of college football and is content staying in the FCS.
 
Williams CMYK
Youngstown State University wide receiver Andrew Williams (80) breaks a tackle during YSU’s 47-7 win over Missouri State University on Nov. 7.
The University of Massachusetts temporarily joined the MAC but left the conference after the 2015 season. Now the conference is looking to add another team to its list of schools to replace UMASS.
 
Strollo said there were several key factors that play into the university’s decision to stay in the FCS. Travel, coaches and most importantly, finances. He said he wouldn’t rule out a move to the FBS in the future, but he said the university finances would more than likely prevent any moves, specifically FBS schools paying for the cost of attendance for their student athletes.
 
“There’s very few FCS schools … well there’s some that give the cost of attendance, but I don’t know any FBS schools that aren’t giving the cost of attendance,” Strollo said. “So it would be assumed, in order to try to be competitive, that you would move to the cost of attendance.”
 
Travel
 
The MAC would be a perfect fit for the Penguins. The MAC currently has 12 teams; six of those teams are in Ohio. Geographically, the cost of travel would be a better fit than the Missouri Valley Football Conference, which stretches from Ohio to North and South Dakota.
 
Other than the MAC, Conference USA is another conference that has schools in the area. The travel would cost more in Conference USA due to schools located in the south but Western Kentucky University, Marshall University and Old Dominion University are Conference USA schools in surrounding states.
 
When asked if YSU would be open to moving to another FBS conference other that the MAC, Strollo said if the program ever changed subdivisions, the MAC would be the leading candidate, but he wouldn’t rule out another conference that has schools near YSU.
 
“It’s hard to say. Obviously you look at geographies first, but the MAC’s membership hasn’t changed in quite a long time,” Strollo said. “They weren’t affected by all the conference changes that happened the past three or four years — they’re a pretty stable group. If that was something that we were interested in, which we are not, I’m not sure where the right fit would be for us.”
 
 
Coaches
 
One factor that may get overlooked by most fans would be the cost to keep YSU’s current coaching staff. The university would have to increase the salaries for the current coaches.
 
In 2015, USA Today requested the salaries of DI football coaches. According to its report, on average MAC schools pay approximately $1.3 million for their coaching staffs. This includes the salaries of the head coach and the nine full-time assistant coaches at each university. Strollo said the Penguins would have to stay competitive with the payroll for the other teams in the FBS.
 
“You allow more coaches, and obviously the coaches you have are getting paid quite a bit more than what we are paying,” Strollo said. “Then you’re allowed 22 more scholarships and those schools are also giving the cost of attendance — which means the cost of each scholarship is probably 20 percent higher than ours.”
 
Strollo said YSU current football coaches took less money to join the program last season. “We began to address YSU’s structural budget deficit by requiring that each division of the University take steps to permanently reduce expense budgets.” He said the university wanted the coaching candidates to understand the current financial situation for the university before any contracts were signed.
 
“We’re spending 5 percent less on this current coaching staff than we did under Eric Wolford’s staff,” Strollo said. “It was in recognition of what was going on on-campus. So part of our discussion with every coach was ‘hey we’re facing tough economic times, and we need to do our part and give back.’ It was, hey, this is something that we’re gonna do before anyone was even offered the position.”
 
Finances
 
In a report issued to the YSU Board of Trustees on Sept. 8, Strollo and the Athletic Department concluded that a move to the MAC would require YSU to increase their current football expenses to $6,805,010, almost double the university’s current expenses.
 
Strollo said the FCS allows the YSU to generate more revenue. If YSU were to move to the FBS, the university’s budget would go into the red.
 
“You’re going to have to go out and compete for coaches at that level. So those would obviously be challenges,” Strollo said. “I think the real challenge when you look at that is although those schools are spending $3 million more than us, if you look at their ticket sales and corporate sponsorships, they’re not raising that much more than us—if not sometimes we’re raising more than them.”
 
Strollo said in addition to the $3,025,680 YSU would need to spend to reach the average expenses the MAC schools use on their football program, YSU would also have to pay a one-time entrance fee of “anywhere from $1 million to $5 million.”
 
The number of scholarship athletes would need to be taken into account as well. FBS schools have 85 scholarship players on their rosters but FCS programs are restricted to 63 football scholarships. Adding 22 scholarships in football would increase the total number of scholarships awarded by the university to all of its student athletes.
 
The athletic department is using a 2 percent increase from the YSU general fund to help pay for the scholarships of its current student athletes and the Title IX Gender Equality Plan. The current university operating budget projects the athletic department will spend approximately $5,167,474 on scholarships and grants for YSU student athletes.
 
Division II
 
Even though there aren’t any rumors of moving to Division II, it is still a good measuring stick to understand that any move could have a negative impact on YSU’s finances.
 
YSU has no interest in moving down, and one main reason is the perception the program would have in the eyes of the loge holders, the people who pay for season tickets and sit in the upper level of Stambaugh Stadium.
 
“The challenge with dropping down to Division II is how does that effect your income string,” Strollo said. “Right now, we’re getting half a million dollars from our loges holders. I’m going to be honest with you; I don’t think our loges holders would be interested in paying the rates that they pay for a Division II program.”
 
Strollo said factors like the number of scholarships, national recognition and the ‘guarantee game’, which is played early in the football season against a Power Five program, would negatively impact the university’s revenue.
 
“Some of the money that you would save by dropping — I think it’s 18 scholarships — you would probably lose that or more in revenue,” Strollo said. “You also won’t be able to play Ohio State [University] for $750,000. So between the loges and the ‘guarantee game’, and if you starting adding in if you go to Division II, is your signage worth the same amount? You start dropping down all those things because you’re not getting the TV recognition.
 
“Now all of our games are on ESPN 3, on a national network. Where you really would get burned is they’re really dealing with the same amount of coaches,” Strollo said. “Where your savings is going to be is the scholarships. Your revenue loss would be a lot more than the savings on the scholarships.”
 
According to the 2016 university operating budget, YSU athletics has seen 9 percent increase in revenue during 2015, most of the revenue was generated due to “guarantee payments for football and basketball.”
 
The YSU football team kicked off its 2015 season against the University of Pittsburg. YSU received $450,000 for participating in the game and putting Pittsburg on their schedule. Originally Ohio State University was supposed to start the season, but a change in the Big Ten’s scheduling policy forced Ohio State to take the Penguins off the schedule. If YSU had played the Buckeyes, YSU would have received $750,000.

YSU Penguin Athletics / WBB: UWGB at YSU Sa 01/09 @ 4:30 pm
« on: January 08, 2016, 10:11:14 AM »
UWGB (12-2 / 2-0 / RPI # 10 ) visits YSU (12-2 / 3-0 / RPI  # 77) as two of the three teams undefeated in league play match up (WSU is also undefeated at 3-0).  UWGB leads the HL in scoring defense, and 3 point FG%.

The only common opponent this season so far is UWM, whom both teams defeated, although UWGB by a much larger margin.

UWGB has defeated Whisky, Vanderbilt, Marquette, Tulane, and Dayton amongst their OOC wins.

Massey gives YSU a 13 % chance of winning and predicts a score of 52-65.

For UWGB, Tesha Buck leads the HL in 3 point FG %.

For YSU, Sarah Cash leads the HL in FG% and Indiya Benjamin leads the HL in assists (both are sophomores).

From greenbayphoenix.com:

"This will be the 36th meeting between the Phoenix and the Penguins, with Green Bay owning a large advantage, 32-3, in the all-time series. Although the advantage heavily favors the Phoenix, recent history has seen more balanced outcomes. Green Bay has won three-consecutive games against YSU, but lost the two prior to that, bringing Green Bay’s record to 3-2 in the last five matchups. Two of Green Bay’s three victories over Youngstown State last season were by more than 20 points."

YSU Penguin Athletics / CBSsports.com article re: President Tressel
« on: December 30, 2015, 03:22:28 PM »
Very interesting article.  It reaffirms two beliefs that I have:

1)  JT was the right choice to be President
2)  He will advance his career in a few years, likely to involve politics.  He cannot maintain the current 18 hour workdays, and politics is comparatively much easier.

http://mweb.cbssports.com/ncaaf/feature/25431105/president-tressel

The article again restates President Tressel's role in luring BP:

"Once Tressel returned as president, one of his most visible decisions was to hire Pelini, who he had tried to recruit to YSU as a free safety in the late 1980s. The coach, fired after going 67-27 over eight seasons as the head of Nebraska's football program, called it a homecoming. He graduated from Youngstown's Cardinal Mooney High School. His wife's parents live nearby. But Tressel played a big part. "I have a president who understands football," Pelini said at his introductory press conference. "I haven't had that before." "

Other quotes:

"At Youngstown State, Tressel has cut administration and open faculty positions, and reduced a $10 million deficit to $3 million."

"Deeper cuts could be ahead at YSU, and Palmer-Fernandez doesn't see Tressel, now 62, as a long-term solution. Neither does de Souza, who initially was unhappy with Tressel's hiring but, like many others, has come around. He wonders if Tressel's chances to win a U.S. Senate seat might be more likely than another university presidency. "Where does he go from here?" he asks."

"Indeed, fall enrollment was up for the first time in years, a combination of both Tressel's relentless recruiting and a decision to market the university beyond the Mahoning Valley."

Who says history never repeats itself.  If named the permanent HC, it will be fascinating to watch the following seasons unfold.  It could be a chance for JH to redeem himself...or dismember another winning program.
