The buck stops with EW, as already noted, it is his butt on the line.

This week.....yipes....Indiana State AT....Northern Iowa (the dreaded dome)
How I hope that Indiana State gets win #3 in the conference.
For so long they have struggled and besides that....Northern
Iowa is a thorn in my......side. GO TREES
We all need to calm down...Please look at the 2 Deep depth charts and count how many Seniors are in the mix...look at games started etc,,,
The roster was gutted because we needed to upgrade size, speed, athleticism, and look like a FCS team...Wolford is recruiting his a$$ off but this is a 3-5 yr project...and then we should be back in the mix...Indy State will win more than you think..but we have to be patient and let the rebuild happen...
When u have Fresh and Sophs manning aloit of the positions you probably are not going to win championships...
The problem is we got lucky and got an offensive genuis that knows offensive football and can tutor QB's to make the pro's...Montgomery-and Big Ben...this team is improving and growing every week..Hess is what 4 games into his soph year...so again patience ...fans
As guin4 stated; turnovers killed us last year, but there is no doubt Indiana State has improved from the days of old! Our passing defense still has holes and ISU's QB will find many of them. Hopefully we will get a couple turnovers this year.
All in all YSU will prevail in a squeaker. YSU 30 - ISU 27
Go Penguins we need this away victory!
Finally we need to do something with our piss poor PA system in the stadium. You can barely here anyone speaking on it.
The reason we are all in uncharted waters is the fact that this is the first time that the very existence of the NCAA as we know it is threatened by the big boys and their television money. Will they bolt from the NCAA, form those super conferences for all sports, and start to pay their players "stipends?" Or will they simply wrest concessions from the NCAA but stay within the organization?
My prediction for YSU is that in five years we will still be affiliated with two conferences: football only as a member of a restructured CAA and everything else in the Horizon League, which will have lost Butler but nobody else. Milwaukee fans are delusional if they think that their institution is attractive to the big boys.
0-3 EWU still @21.
Oh and the media is not liberal.
