Could swear Kosar has been around the program in the last year or so. Maybe I'm just remembering him being at a game or something but this isn't his first appearance.. donors, fans, it can't hurt to have a big area name in a cheerleader sort of role.

Anyway, we're looking at 3 bad conferences this year, if you ask me.

That's nice. But it has nothing to do with the 90s-2000s MAC which is what the conversation was about

The MVC and A-10 having down years has nothing to do with the MAC. The MVC also lost their best 3 or 4 teams over the past 5 or so years. Also, what's the average without Buffalo?

Did anyone sign today?

Larry Williams said that, for starters.

The 90s - early 2000s MAC was a tad bit harder to sweep

Arth just had a nice interview with Reghi at halftime. Pretty impressive guy. Said his staff will hopefully be complete in a few days. Should include some UTC coaches as well as a number of Ohio coaches that can recruit the state of Ohio. Re: signing day, he said he wouldn't feel comfortable with his kid signing tomorrow with a coach he's never met, so he's not putting pressure on kids and hopefully giving them a chance to get to know him and sign in February. Good stuff imo

The more I learn about Arth, the more I like him. I wish I knew more about the drop off at UTC but he obviously explained that away well enough in his interviews

That was a joke. Also they said the other two interviewees haven't been head coaches before.

What was the answer? And question if you don't mind

He is. Not even close. Now quit trolling

It was crappy for KD to take guys with him and it'd be crappy for Arth to bring his guys here. Hopefully he can shore things over with our current class and maybe convince a couple guys he lost out on to bigger programs to come here.

Just quit while you're behind, please.

Good find. How'd he do at ND?

Zero of these guys went straight from HS to division 1 head coach. Chip Kelly never even coached HS football. The average # of positions held between HS coach and D1 HC is roughly 5 per Wikipedia browsing, and about 5-10 years to get from HS coach to D1 HC. Your post doesn't even really deserve the effort of looking all of this up but it's completely ludicrous to expect any HS coach to be able to jump to D1 football and succeed as a head coach.

Looks like gold unis

Welcome Coach Arth. This isn't the Getsy type splash hire but I've said before, winning is exciting. Offseason hire excitement equates to zero wins come September.. let's win some games. Go Zips

Probably to raise money to buy him out

Jacobs not being contacted is old news?

Ha I was gonna say, the twitter account that tweets out all the news after we post it? Color me skeptical
