He can get his 700th against Thiel don't worry. Then after a 20 loss season, he can ride off into retirement.

I feel like this young group has some really good potential if they can keep growing together.

We have absolutely no need for a transfer QB at this point. Also, Ruiz was upset because he was being targeted & getting no help. That is why we switched to Webb. However, Ruiz did punch it through a few times & I wished he would have been left in on that on series, but then Webb made me eat my wish with a 40+ yard run.

BTW, Wolf never had a recruiting visit as large as I saw Saturday & the letter-man's jackets were from good programs ...especially PA. That was the largest since early 2000's, when we were living off of being the former home of Jim Tressel. This is clearly because of Bo Pelini & you are fooling yourself to think it is anything else. Although I am sure that having JT as a new president does not go unnoticed by these kids and their parents.

No, just a need for a coordinator change.

Bo likes Shane Montgomery and the job he does. I think Monty stays and it will be a open competition in the spring between Davis and Wells. If anything they will go the transfer route for added depth at wide receiver. Starting all over with a New system/coordinator/ quarterback could take years to develop. Your better off to stick with what you have especially being as competitive as they have been in the Missouri this season

If he stays, god help us all.

Bo genuinely cares about his players, just as Moschella does. Great teachers, but Bo cost YSU a chance in this game. Plain and simple. 1 TO left with a couple good throws, could have given Kennedy a chance....

Have to admit, from that replay and the ref was behind the WR in great position. It's the right call. Tough call to make in that situation, but the correct call.

In defense of Krispinsky (TV main) and Hannon (radio main) ...they are both very good and call it the way it happened. You will hear words similar to "YSU got away with that one" many times. I have heard them all and he is the best in the conference. On away games I will turn the TV down and hope the radio is not too far off the TV or internet. If it is a TV game ...it will be close, but internet is usually way off in timing, so I end up listening to the away guys.

I also like to listen to Hannon and Sammerone on the radio. Yesterday Hannon was getting a little ridiculous almost seemed like he ws pro NDSU but ye isn't.  Chad is a nice guy but he is irritating to listen to because he gets excited for everything even when it's not that big of a deal.

Good post.  Chad does a radio play by play bs calling a tv broadcast.  I can see what you are calling Chad you don't have to tell me it's a handoff to the right side and give me the yard marker.  I can see it.  I can see it.

HA! I laughed at that one, so true lol.

YSU Penguin Athletics / Re: 4th Quarter

« on: November 16, 2015, 01:22:15 AM »

What I want the offense to do is get a 1st down in 4 drives. It's pathetic that this man is able to keep his job. Time and time again we always blame the defense because of the late game meltdowns. Only a few of us point out that playing defense in college football is hard enough, but you cannot put your defense in absolutely terrible positions late in the game. To get shutout in the 4th quarter of close games is unacceptable

4th quarter of the Southern Illinois game- 0 Points (And we all know about the failed HB pass in OT)
4th quarter of the Western Illinois game- 0 Points (Just 3 points in the 3rd)
4th quarter of the NDSU game- 0 Points (No first downs in the last 4 drives)

Let's be realistic. The final drive does not count. Bo had 2 15-yard penalties and also a half-the-distance. We needed 46-yards for the 1st-down. Clearly not possible in the remaining time or distance. So why don't you post the same drive summaries for our opposition?

Please post the last 4 NDSU drives. Don't bother ...here you go:

1. Punt kick returned to the NDSU 48. after we sack them and a penalty, a fair QB (at best) hits a man wide open after our coverage drops off. What was it about 62-yards?
2. punt return to the YSU 39 ...NDSU field goal. I was very pleased with the D on that.
3. NDSU punts & then penalty takes us back to the 6-yard line. On that one we had the bad pass from Davis and it was his series. I thought it was smart call to leave Davis in, but furious we did not capitalize after we got one of only 2 stops in the second half. If you want to hang it on Montgomery, go ahead, it is his call and he should suffer the wrath. None the less ...a bomb down to the 2.5 yard line an subsequent NDSU score.
4. They go into a simple I-formation and ram it down our throats for a TD.


The point is, we needed a stop and/or a drive & we got neither. I am quite aware that we could not move the ball; but I am equally aware that we could not stop NDSU. The two of you refuse to see the latter.

PS: The SIU half-back call was probably too aggressive, but it had to be thrown by the back ...a bootleg would have been blown-up right out of the gate.  Let's not forget the Webb had the 1st-down if he ran, but he chose to stick with the script. I do not blame him ...that is how they practiced it.

Also, Itavious is a great receiver, probably only his second drop, but amplified. Then again, he is a short distance guy; but I was screaming with joy when he got behind their zone & even more when Wells nailed the pass. Such a shock to his him drop one. Harvin still has my vote for Offensive POY.

Defense was put in a horrible position, again our inept offense. Held NDSU to a FG on the 1 drive and then the obvious BS penalty which cost us. I understand the dropped pass was a game changer but how does this man keep getting a pass for his inept play calling late in games?

I see another losing season. Bad defense still, and still relying on chucking up 3's.

Blame the defense all you want I-AA. That's typical since you have to defend your BFF Mongtomery....

THE OFFENSE DID NOT GET A 1ST DOWN THE LAST 4 DRIVES OF THE GAME UP 14 POINTS. NDSU started their last 3 drives at or around the 50 freaking yard line. Open your eyes, jesus god. Montgomery is a chump, folds like a lawn chair when the game is on the line. Get this guy out of Youngstown. I've seen enough!!!

Bye Montgomery. 3 biggest possessions of the game, and all 3 and outs. Not even a single 1st down. Shame on you. That's all you need to know about YSU football the last 5 or 6 years. Shame on the refs also but up 14 with 9 minutes to play and your offense doesn't do sh*t to help out the defense. NDSU had the ball at the 50 or close to it every single time late in the game. Same old crap, different day.
