All the teams in SR1 have 25? You sure about that? Lol. Not even close.
Let's make factual sense. Very few teams in SR1 have anywhere near 25 scholarships. IUP could be maxed if they could raise more money (along with any other school).

Actually, in the lexicon of our little PSAC forum former Cal president Armenti (sp?) was dubbed as the Godfather by IUPNation some years ago.
And for you, a poster with a grand total of 36 posts, to call a forum legend such as Nation with nearly 100,000 posts a beeping idiot pretty much tells us all we need to know about you.
Frank Cignetti Sr. was dubbed as the Emperor some time back.

These numbers are a bit old, but multiple teams in our conference over 25.

We're unfortunately nowhere close to a national title. No playoffs last year and bounced at home in Round 1 this year. Next year's schedule is brutal. It will be very tough to go 9-2 and make the playoffs next year. Possible but tough.

I think other fans must be looking at IUP fans with a puzzled look on their faces. Ok, we lost a PO game in the last seconds. We lost a regular season game to a much higher ranked team by 3 points. We won all of the other games, though. It's been noted that Tort has a 31-6 record as HC. As with all head coaches you are only as good as your last game. I know that.
TBH, I think he's doing well. I think he's still learning to be a HC, which is good as long as he keeps getting better.
I questioned hiring him in the first place. For the previous 35 years IUP had a high profile HC, someone well known nationwide. I thought that was important in our program. But I have to say when I watch Tort's weekly show with Jack I'm impressed by his grasp of what's important in each game and how he talks about the players. For one thing, I would say he did regain control of the team this year. That was critical.
It's been mentioned that the last of Cignetti's recruits are done this year. However, Tort appears to be a good recruiter. He brought in Redfield, Maxwell, Reese, and a lot of other quality transfers in addition to players coming in from HS.
I think he's a pretty smart guy and things he's being criticized for now are things he can overcome. It does concern me that he said after the Shep game that if it was 4 or 5 years down the road he might consider hanging it up. If you are totally committed I'm not sure you entertain that idea over one loss.
As always, the ultimate goal for IUP's football program is to win the D2 NC. I guess anything less the faithful is not satisfied.

Originally posted by IUP724 View Posthow are you guys losing confidence in a guy that has a 31-6 record???!!! He led a team to win the Region in 2017! Which Curt never did! He was also the fastest Head Coach in Program to reach 30 wins! I have met the guy a couple of times and he is a very nice person.

You have to be fair to Curt. He inherited a total mess from The Lou Tepper - very little talent, etc. Tort inherited a team from Curt that was completely stacked with Curt's developed players. Very different circumstances.
Tort has done very well. He's 3-3 versus Cal and SRU. The two home playoff losses are the black eye on the resume.
