  1. What has he done that's so successful?! Mugged for the camera with championship teams that he had nothing to do with? The Remora.
  2. id say yes for 1 year. if he mucks up the next hire, he better be on the way out the door too Are you serious? Is medical marijuana now legal in Ohio? Was there some Lot 9, 100 keg tailgate that no one told me about? HELL NO he gets no mulligan. If Wistercill is within 500 miles of the upcoming football coach search committe my projectile vomit will be sufficient to block the sun's rays for 1,000 years.
  3. This site says it's a done deal. Believe what you want...but Christmas may have come early for Zips Football Fans!
  4. I don't care enough to spend the gas money to Fairlawn. Let Ianello tell his plan to the fry cook.
  5. You really think we can score 13 points! We KNOW the Ole Miss-led offense is GUARANTEED to put up 3 points. I predict PN7 will get us 10 more in the 4th quarter.
  6. Black Friday game? How appropriate. Football season ended for me a couple weeks ago. I can't even listen to the games on the radio. Unfortunately I can't avoid the embarrassing scroll running across the lower TV screen. Sucks that the nation will see "WMU 58 Akron 13" scrolling across their TV's both Friday AND Saturday.
  7. We had our chance to pick that guy 2 years ago, and TW picked the guy who's turned out to be the worst coach in D-1A football. I see no way that any replacement of Ianello will be better than Ianello. I've said this before and I'll say it again -- Proenza isn't a Football Guy. He has no clue about football, other than knowledge that a good football team can enhance the college experience, and get alumni back on campus. But I would be shocked if he even knows the yardage required for a first down on 1st and 10 (Answer -- "10"). As far as selecting coaches...he entrusted that decision 100% to Wistercill. And, ignoring every other candidate in the nation, he picked his buddy from Wisconsin. And here we are. Down 30-3 to Buffalo at the half. Down 49-0 to Cincinnati at the half. Beaten 35-3, at home, by a K.e.n.t. team that began the season 1-6. We are the worst team in college football. And there's no hope for the future. We'll lose by 50 Saturday.
  8. Regardless - It's a loss. On a neutral court. To a mid-major team that we'll likely be judged against at some point (Bracket Buster, NIT, etc.). Obviously [fending off dorky hyperbole Zips Fan here] it is game #3 of a long season, and can be overcome, but <see above>.
  9. Tressel could donate the money required to buy out Ianello's contract. You can overlook the circumstances Fickell faced this year. I'd take him in a heartbeat.
  10. "Tom Wistercill", and "wise" in the same sentence?
  11. The Mississippi State game is our potential. The Valpo and Duquesne games are what we are.
  12. Yeah, I remember CK and I arguing about that before the season. So if he played 5 downs per game on defense, instead of 5 downs on offense per game, would our record be any different? We suck. Who cares.
  13. Climb the billboard post and do-it-yourself with a can of spray paint. Better yet, use that big Fear the Roo spotlight and make a simple FIRE IANELLO lens to beam the message upon the campus building walls. Both are cheap and effective.
  14. I forgot all about that. A similar play happened early to Valpo and they awarded them a timeout immediately. That play changed the entire game.
  15. Wow...this time-honored line appears so soon? After game 3 (game 2, if you don't count Hiram...and you shouldn't). And a BCS win? Will it change if we beat Duquesne, Detroit, WVa and CSU? It can't...can it? To quote Ralph Wiggum - "That's unpossible." +1
  16. Eastern Michigan is a great team too...coming from a quality conference <insert good MAC teams that aren't EMU>. We choked. Plenty more games to play, lessons to learn and opportunities for redemption. But we choked tonight.
  17. Nope. We choked. Guys tried to win the game themselves rather than play team ball for the last 4 minutes. That cost us the game. The new guys and the semi-new-guys that are now seen as leaders need to learn from what happened tonight. Then we're fine. If we don't learn from it, then we'll struggle. Not against the MAC West, but against good competition. And in road games.
  18. Did you see Diggs, McClanahan and Abreu finish out? Did you see the shots? Seriously? No points for the final 4 minutes? We choked. Period. I Speak Truth...and it sometimes hurts.
  19. Free throws my butt...the Zips panicked, and choked it away. The bandwagon saw a few drop off tonight. Too bad. Big choke job by the Zips. They had a nice lead, yet they played like they were the ones down 5. No points in the final 4 minutes? Terrible shot selection. Pretty much makes the Duquesne game a "must-win." Hope to see a sense of urgency in that game. It's a long season...blah blah blah...it was a choke. Period. We all saw it. Hope we learn from it.
  20. What a complete scam - Absolutely suck at your job...get fired after 2 seasons...and take $1million from UA over the next 3 seasons to NOT coach the team. I'm in the wrong business.
  21. Few? I'd be happy with one. After last week, I'd settle for a touchdown. Or the week prior. The soccer team continues to match the football team in scoring. Yippee.
  22. Few? I'd be happy with one.
  23. McFadden is still here, and Getsy is gone, so I consider him "post-Getsy."
  24. What I took from this article is that Dambrot can recruit better quarterbacks then Ianello... True. Who can argue that McFadden and McAdams are the two best post-Getsy QB's we've seen on the UA campus?
