one other thing that bothers me is those hanging hoops on the sides which are visible on ESPN+ look JV to me.

You guys have to be fair. The Convocation Center was built for the Cleveland Crunch (Force), CSU took control when the original owner wanted to build the Gund Arena. It's capacity for basketball is almost half of it's max. This is why we should not have under-built the Chevy Center when we did. In short, YSU is paying for things themselves & CSU did not. Sure they (CSU) pay for updating it, but they do not have a football stadium (like Stambaugh) to maintain either.
BTW, real YSU basketball fans might complain, but will still go to games and sit in bleachers. They are not doing it now and have not since before Tressel became AD. Attendance has been an issue long before Strollo.
Nope the team they are playing sucks. It’s not worth my time watching bad basketball being played. Maybe in another 2 years I will watch!
Wrestling is fine for sure, but not nearly as popular locally as baseball. I wish we could have all sports, but financially and Title 9, not possible. I fear baseball could be dropped due it being a men's sport with 35 players. Much easier for YSU to field a men's soccer team with facilities right on campus etc. and cheaper to fund. And with Cleveland State and Akron dropping baseball, it is easy to see it is vulnerable. Hope baseball can stay for me personally.
Dra Rushton of Liberty received an offer and is more than likely going to sign with the Penguins.
Only real offer was from Air Force
The Coaches Show will be on the radio tonight at 7pm... It is typically on 1390 WNIO, but I thought I heard Potesta say it will be on 570 tonight.Think Ohio State has a hoops game so that is probably why.
Ray McCallum has been fired by UDM after compiling a .478 HL win % in 8 years and took UDM to both the NCAA tournament and NIT tournament.
For comparison's sake, in the land of the absurd, Slocum = o.297 after 11 years...no NCAA tournament....no NIT....contract just extended....
Again ...show me the football program. He makes more than Bo Pelini. In fact about Bo and one of his coordinators would be the same salary as Ray McCallum. They said McCallum's salary in 2008 when hired was $380k. We can only assume it is higher now. He is a career .500 coach that will always be employed because of his race ...and the next place he goes he will not have a talented son that he can use for leverage, unless he has another at home.
