Good grief

Still a better coach than we have now.

He won 9 games just like Bo.

To be fair, Bo never went 6-7 in a season at NU.

Took an ass kicking worse than bo though

Bo got his fair share of ass beatings. But whatever he's gone and Riley is the HC.

Spoiler: The Penguins win.

He can do great at YSU, it doesn't matter cause he is playing competition that is worse right now. If he wins good for him, he can win at one level but not the other. Give him credit for getting them really far in year two and I wonder how long he can continue to get Youngstown this far.

It's ok to admit that Bo has done a good job at Youngstown State, had a few pretty good years at NU, and think that he wasn't the right guy for the long-term at NU.

 

Yep. This is exactly where I'm at. Happy for Bo, Joe Ganz & Tim Marlowe. Happy that Bo isn't here anymore. Still not sure about Riley, but that's a different discussion than if Bo should have stayed.

 

I don't mean to bring "what are you feelings" into the thread, but I'm with you 100%, Knapp. My post wasn't meant to oppose Bo's firing, just the reasons posted by some.

Except the team his team just beat was rated MUCH higher...and at home...and a passing team facing a YSU team without its top 2 safeties...

I would hope, for Bo's sake, that he learned something from his failure at Nebraska. Maybe he has, and we're seeing that with this season at Youngstown.

 

Maybe it would have been better if Nebraska wasn't his first head coaching job.

QFT (I learned that "acronym" on HB a few years ago, glad to use it)

Bo wasn't a good fit at Nebraska. That said, he's done better than Riley at this point. That can change. We'll see I guess.

The top of the FCS is no joke.

True statement. NDSU beat Iowa who has owned NU since Riley has been here.

 

But Mike is nice.

So what is a failure? Is 10 and 3 but playing for the conference championship a failure?

 

What is 5 and 7?

Lol. Good one on playing worse competition. Cause I think MR lost to a lot worse competition last season.

Youngstown is back baby.
