YSU Coaches

YSU Coaches
The Vindicator has put together a list of possible candidates who may be considered to replace Jon Heacock.
THE SHORT LIST
Several are former Youngstown State assistant coaches, who spent time on the sidelines with former head coach Jim Tressel. They include: Don Treadwell, the offensive coordinator at Michigan State, who was Tressel’s offensive coordinator from 1991-94; Pete Rekstis, the defensive coordinator at Kent State; and Nick Siciliano, the quarterbacks coach at Ohio State. Jack Glowik, a Ravens scout, served on the YSU staff in 1987. Others who played high school football in the Mahoning Valley include Pat Narduzzi (son of former YSU coach Bill Narduzzi), Mark Stoops and D.J. Durkin.
Comments
That list is good, but it is inconplete. What about Eric Wolford, Offensive line coach from the University of South Carolina. Brookfield native and 1989 Ursuline grad. Major D-1 experience at schools like Kansas State, South Florida, Houston, North Texas, Arizona, and Illinois.
High energy guy and a known relentless recruiter.
Rated as a top 25 D-1 recruiter in 2007 by Rivals.com
Glad to see Durkin and Stoops on the vindy list. YSU should go bold and young. Durkin would bring enourmous vitality and youth to this program, as would Stoops. Wolford not a bad idea. think outside of the box YSU.
Hey YSU you're going to have to dig a little deeper in your pockets to get the right coach and staff.
Nice list.........but a pipe dream. What attraction would YSU have to assistant/coordinators at the major D-1 level making $250k-$300k. YSU will certainly raise the current $115k to make the position more appealing but probably only to $150k+.
A name that should be on the list, Rick Shepas.
Why is Walt Harris not included? Attached is an interesting article that indicates his desire to be a HC.
