Re: Hot Seat(s)

Gannon has a ton of talent ... did last year, too.

Talent is not the problem in Erie. That's excuse diving at this point.

This is very true.

Very good point.

Re: Hot Seat(s)

Just my opinion.

You put Tortorella or Dunn in charge of that roster the past 3 years and GU has double the wins.

I'm not sticking up for the Gannon HC. I agree and expected more of them. I said they would be better with a new HC. I was one that thought they could be 2nd in west...preseason.

Re: Hot Seat(s)

I think Gannon d has some players but the scheme seems like a disaster sometimes. (just random watching games though)

Re: Hot Seat(s)

Agree...putting someone else in charge would make a huge diffence.

The BLoom-hurst game might as well been a 1927 game with no wr's.

Savage!

Can't argue with that.

Re: Hot Seat(s)

How so? Athletic scholarship is still athletic scholarship...the money still has to be there. You give a kid 5k they only pay 5k. Gannon/Hurst give a kid 5k they have to pay 35k...see the difference?

They're not really giving anybody anything. They're merely discounting like a coupon or flash sale. Private school tuition is like the car dealership: some people pay sticker but most people pay somewhere between sticker and invoice. When Edinboro gives that kid $5k, that is $5k that was donated to Edinboro for football and is sitting in an account until its time to pay out. And $5k off of Gannon's sticker is absurd because so few students are actually paying $47,456 a year for Gannon. In fact, Gannon reports to the federal government that the average student only pays $27,729. That's a 42% average discount. Almost $20k just for the average kid. There's no way that Gannon is bringing in enough money to throw $20k at every kid who enrolls.

Re: Hot Seat(s)

I believe he was out the second half of week 2 and the first half of week 1.

Mercyhurst and Gannon each always have some very strong talent at skill positions - but they don't always add up to wins.

Re: Hot Seat(s)

IUP sure wishes it had 17,000 ... subtract about 5,000.

Used to be about 15 years ago, ...

Re: Hot Seat(s)

Take the time that he wasn't permitted to play out. Yards per carry was 5.5 against SCSU, 3.1 against WCU and 5.9 against Kutz. Last season was 8 ypg. But this year's average will be going for the remainder of the season. The only team left on the schedule that slowed him last year was IUP.
