I'd take JT as the best QB in the nation. Mariota can't be the best player if he's not the best QB.Classyposter58;1686621 wrote:He was the best player

That will happen when your playing top defenses week in and week out. Maybe in the Pac 12 or SEC it's easier to throw the ball, but in the B1G defense is the name of the game.Classyposter58;1686637 wrote:Haha no I think JT almost threw as many picks as Mariota has in his whole career this season

Pac-12. Where defense is optional and Oregon hasn't had a decent competitor since Stanford fell off the map.Classyposter58;1686637 wrote:Haha no I think JT almost threw as many picks as Mariota has in his whole career this season

This has resurfaced today after both sides denied previously. Youngstown Vindicator reporting it is likely now, as early as this afternoon

He's said that he has always wanted his kids to go to Mooney. This gives him that opportunity.ts1227;1686737 wrote:I'm kind of surprised. Even if he wanted to get back home, maybe wait for the Pitt job to formally open later this week and go for that?
Why? Maybe he is tired of the big time BS that he has dealt with while at Nebraska. He is also probably walking away with a buyout, so money is not an issue. So why not at this stage of his life. Not everyone is motivated to jump into the fire again.ts1227;1686737 wrote:I'm kind of surprised.

I understand that, but he just didn't seem like he was ready to step back from 1-A head coaching yet IMO. But if he's ready to go home he can be coach for life at YSU if he tears it up.centralbucksfan;1686753 wrote:Why? Maybe he is tired of the big time BS that he has dealt with while at Nebraska.

Perhaps he put feelers out behind the scenes and got negative feedback. That can happen sometimes when your reputation is "giant asshole".ts1227;1686737 wrote:I'm kind of surprised. Even if he wanted to get back home, maybe wait for the Pitt job to formally open later this week and go for that?
Pittsburgh might as well translate to "giant asshole"Mulva;1686756 wrote:Perhaps he put feelers out behind the scenes and got negative feedback. That can happen sometimes when your reputation is "giant asshole".
And if you add in points others have made, YSU could have been a godsend "rebuild rep" head job. The point about wanting his kids going to Mooney works out a lot better if he's in Youngstown (cue Skank showing up to debate that while ignoring his school getting kids from places that aren't Mass-town). And if Nebraska has to pay all of his buy out minus what he makes, as Ytowngirl said, and knowing how Pelini comes off as a major douche, I definitely can see him taking a low-paying head job just to stick them for a huge bill. Fuck, I admire that!Al Bundy;1686789 wrote:Bo most likely could have been a coordinator at a big school, but some guys like being the head coach once they have had a taste of it.

He should sign a $1 contract at YSU to really stick it to Nebraska...lolHeretic;1686790 wrote:And if you add in points others have made, YSU could have been a godsend "rebuild rep" head job.

Solich and Bowden are also fucking old (Bowden pushing 60 and Solich is 70) and took those as retirement jobs. Bo (late 40s) has a long tenure at YSU if that's his retirement job.Al Bundy;1686789 wrote:Bo most likely could have been a coordinator at a big school, but some guys like being the head coach once they have had a taste of it.
