YSU Penguin Athletics / Re: Trib: YSU (football) missing a key trend from the 1990s

if we are still depending on #8 its going to be a long season.   I know he is a local guy, he is undersized and a step slow to be a starting cb or safety.  He is a nickel or dime guy at best.  Every team game planned to exploit him.

YSU Penguin Athletics / What happened to the students?

« on: March 31, 2013, 08:27:03 PM »

Was it me or did the student body decide that basketball games aren't worth the time.  The three games i attended there were very few in attendance.

the team we have was a 500 team.  We have no true post guys and physically you can see our players are a tad thinner etc.  We have made progress, on like I said before on a dollar general budget.  Does Slocum have flaws yes...but he has turned us around to be respectable and that's a start

I don't understand why getting into the turney is a negative. Slocum has at least made us respectable.  We arre on a Dollar General Budget and we went from being one of the worst D1 programs to getting an invite to a tournament.  Its EXPOSURE and it will be worth every penny.  Great job guys and good luck!

I was at the game. Eargle was a block monster after the 3 straight blocks especially the smalls were afraid to go inside.!  I wish Slocum would have let the guards go to the hoop sooner because you could see even though Loyola had size that they couldn't defend our guards.  BUT A WIN IS A WIN!

Football has changed the past 15 years.  But for some reason fans of the football program still haven't got off the high of beating Mcneese St. 10-9.  We would struggle in the MAC.  Kent would beat us like a drum. and yes we would beat Akron again and again.  College sports is about revenue and exposure and the MAC would give us that more than the MVC or playing Lehigh in a playoff game at their place in front of 3K.  The Tressel era was awesome but just like the dinosaurs its time to move on.

Well I disagree about the namecalling! We all know she is clueless about football calling her d that name is classless.  But your the boss and jury.  Just remember you are on record that it is okay.

1AA, namecalling won't change anything. I am friends with penguinpower and he is on the record for his opinion on the commish.  I applaud his passion but not the namecalling!

When you can't get it done in your conference, usually translates to no playoffs our record since 2007 is like 19-27.   With the addition of the all the Dakota schools made it tougher for us and I am wondering if the Missouri Valley is where we need to be.

I was on the sidelines yesterday, obvious the gameplan was short throws and the rungame.  They wanted to protect the ball an minimize mistakes.  Didnt like what I saw on sidelines after the missed fieldgoal alot of sour faces and #35 was the main culprit.  Thats were leadership is needed, not a look of disgust.  Cook seems to have lost the extra gear he used to have.  Wonder if he bulked up a little too much this year.  Our wideouts didnt standout, not alot of separation was happening.  Was ugly but a  win!

We have a talent issue at DB.  I disagree with Pengupowers assessment.  Countless times we can't make a tackle due to lack of size etc.  Same for the lbs.  There is a lack of football instincts too and throw in some weak coaching and u have a mess
