« Last post by InTheYo on November 18, 2024, 01:12:52 PM »May he rest in peace. Thank you for your love and support for YSU and for setting up this message board in the first place. I am sure thousands have posted on this site over the years!
Moving forward, who are the remaining moderators on this website? Will we be able to salvage this moving forward? If not, one thought I had was to create a YSU Penguins subreddit on reddit.com which we could use moving forward if this website ends up going away. We definitely need a message board like this for our fan base and would be happy to help moderate with others a subreddit group for us if we need to go that route.
For those of you who do not know reddit, it is a massive message board website. Each subreddit is its own individual community. There is a big Youngstown subreddit out there right now anyhow.
Let us know so we can start planning accordingly!

We beat patsies and let’s face it the best win was against UND who are currently 5-6. One thing I think we are overlooking is that besides the Pitt and SDSU games, when we needed to score we didn’t and couldn’t. Villanova, Duquesne, Missouri State, South Dakota, Illinois State, SIU were all winnable games but we didn’t have the passing attack and balanced offense to win those games. Granted our defense was putrid all year but we were in those games but teams made adjustments against our one dimensional offense and we did not and could not score because we have no balance on offense and lacked the ability to stretch defenses. Priority in the portal - offense- Oline, 2 deep threat receivers, running back. Defense - front 7 and 2 secondary starters! Heard that the defensive schemes were too confusing this year?? We did lose a D coordinator who has Mercer winning their conference. Granted it’s not the MVFC but what happened? I know.. we pay our assistant coaches beans and nobody would want to come here for little money. Heard it for 30 years. This off season is going to be crucial for this program. Otherwise we are looking at Pelini level breakdown.

I haven't posted on here much the last 10 or so years, but still pop in every once in awhile to check what was going on with YSU sports. This board has been around since 2002 & Dan had a Yahoo YSU board before that from what I remember. So, thanks Dan to your dedication to YSU and it's fans

« Last post by go guins on November 17, 2024, 01:23:27 PM »Great win. But before we get to high, it was the worst UNI team ever. We were up 14-0 and we're first and 10 on their 25 before another implosion. Coaching staff is letting these kids down. D is embarrassingly bad and we nothing different play after play game after game. Gotta change and soon!
