Dambrot open to Q home game and major schedule upgrade

Dambrot, in the PD during the MAC tourney, alluded to the possiblity of playing major teams at home and at the Q if necessary. Hopefully someone else can back me up as I am too lazy right now to search for a link.

To take the program to the next step, to get the NCAA win(s), and until a new arena is built...playing 1-2 major games @ the Q yearly is a good idea. Glad to hear that Dambrot is ready to take the schedule to the next step and is mentioning use of the Q.

Depth Chart?

I swear I read somewhere that the 1st depth chart would be released on Saturday after the scrimmage. I looked here (#1 source!!!) and on gozips with no luck. Today maybe?

Any word on a Coach Bowden STO show?

Seems like the time would be right!!!

Looking at FCS Head Coaches....

When you start to investigate these guys, you find many lifers (been there forever), oftentimes in combination with being a graduate of that school. I looked at teams in the playoffs this year/recently successful programs suchs as Northern Iowa, Maine, New Hampshire, JMU and ODU. Same M.O. in most cases. Indiana State guy has been mentioned, and although he is relatively new there he is also, as others have said, a graduate.

Mike Bajakian should be looked at

I mentioned him in another post, but now we really need to focus on this guy or a VERY similar guy. If Campbell at 31 can be HC at Toledo, this guy can be HC here. His resume hits MUCH of what a lot of us are looking for=

A few years as a coordinator (with successful offenses)
Experience in the MAC
Experience in Ohio
Experience with QBs (as a player and coach)
NFL experience (always can be a selling point to recruits)

Only thing he has not done is HC. But his resume far outweighs Ianallo, Loeffler, etc. and, besides the UA connection, his resume MIGHT be better than Mike Johnson's considering where the majority of his work has been done.

TW...did that $25,000 lead you to asking him.
