No matter how they spin it. This is a really bad look.
Says a lot about state of program and our salaries for
Asst coaches.
Will be interesting to see if we elevate another staff
member or actually search for a quality DC
Budget crunch is hitting Athletic Dept hard
Actually, I'm pretty sure that KSU football assistant coach Jack Rose left for HS in the late 80s or very early 90s, so it's not without precedent.
Muskrat. Good catch. Here is the back story
He came under Mason , left under Crum
and had HOF career at Massilon

I thought he was done and used up his eligibility, then I thought I saw him post something about returning last week, now he’s gone. Hard to keep up with this nonsense, hard to keep anybody contributing from being poached. System is broken, system sucks…
PS: CJ Harris into the portal as well, wonder what part time players Kenni will pull away from some FCS doormat to backfill these guys?

Certainly not a good situation. Mid-majors, most of them anyway, are in danger of just being minor leagues for the P 5 and the few elite mid-major types. That is, if we're not there already.

Watching your DC leave for a HS job can cause you to see the reality of your situation more clearly.

So the Kent Grit gear is taking a back seat to the new gear that I guess is intended to inspire the squad, it has our record and ranking out of the FBS teams. Only one way to go from here…
1-11
133 (out of 133)

Reminding your team how bad they sucked is an interesting motivational technique.

Shaming can be an effective motivator... Probably want to make sure that apparel is locked away when potential recruits are on campus....

Then again, the 133 might be his ranking amongst the head coaches…

Maybe the AD was looking at the coaching ratings in reverse order when he gave the contract extension?
