Fitzgerald hit the portal about a month ago so he did not play in the Spring Game fwiw.

Some overall thoughts...

- Coming in with the mass exodus of defensive players, many of which ended up jumping to P5 level of FBS, as well as a new defensive coordinator, the expectation was the...

One more DB transfer that we picked up this week out of Tiffin. Seems like we picked up a few guys from Tiffin this off-season.

Anyone have any updates to report? The most recent Instagram post does make it seem like Brungard and Shannon are getting a higher # of reps at the QB position. Lots of question marks on defense as...

Late commit to 2024 class. Solomon Farrell, an ATH out of Cincinnati, committed to YSU today.

His recruiting profiles show he is a 3-star recruit that had some solid offers: Indiana, Louisville,...

YSU Defensive Coordinator Jahmal Brown is leaving to take the same position at Mercer (SoCon) where he will be with a former coach he was with in the D2 ranks. Hopefully DP can find the right guy to...

As I predicted, Youngstown State announced their mid-year transfers today which included 14 transfers. Here is the link.

Of the 14 transfers, 10 were from FBS schools, 2 from FCS schools, and 2...

YSU Football Twitter had highlights of the signees? Far too early to be labeling this class a D- without knowing the full load of transfers from the portal that eventually enroll come January. With...

Dathan Hickey, DB transfer from Yale, commits to YSU.

YSU commitment from D2 DL Transfer Joseph Loiseau from Gannon. From what I can gather, he chose YSU over offers from Kent State, Kennesaw State, Elon, Campbell, Eastern Michigan, Monmouth, UT Martin,...

Could the mass exodus on defense also signal a change to the defensive coaching staff? 25.4 ppg and 240.5 ypg given up in pass game won't get it done!

Villanova was simply the better team. Congrats to the Wildcats on pretty dominating win over my Penguins. YSU needs to beef up certain areas of this team in the off-season. Phillips has only picked...

Glad to see these two programs match-up in the playoffs, as well as with the upcoming home and home series starting in 2024. The FCS could sure use these two rivals from the 90s to get back into...

Are you venturing to Villanova to cheer on YSU?

A quick glance at those stats on page 1 shows Villanova likes to run the ball (#7 in FCS), while YSU has done well stopping the run (#7 in FCS). Strength vs. Strength.

Whoever wins that battle in...

SDSU looks absolutely dominating. If they clean up their penalty issues, they will be well on their way to winning back-to-back titles.

YSU's last 13 conference games (9-4 record)

-Worst Loss - By 5 to UND at home 35-30 in 2022
-Best Win - By 28 over SIU at home 31-3 in 2023


In this league, that is remarkable consistency....

Regarding penalties, which were bad again today for YSU, Paladin you may be surprised to hear SDSU was ranked 115th in the FCS in fewest penalty yards allowed this year. YSU was 79th. Not good...

Agreed. Plenty of variables in the final two weeks.

Paladin. King will have another year with us at RB next season. He confirmed in a media interview. So between him and Whatley and Harris, we should be fine at RB.

Indiana State has given UNI, USD, and UND fits thus far this year. YSU best be ready!

Excellent analysis. I agree!

Glad someone said it!

The way UND is playing down the stretch, they are doing themselves no favors if they end up at 7-4... Clenz --- would def move UNI and YSU ahead of UND at this point.
