Mason Y’Barbo, one of the anchors of UNT’s offensive line during its magical 2013 season, has taken a job as the run game coordinator and offensive line coach at Fort Scott Community College in Kansas.

Y’Barbo went on to become a graduate assistant coach at UNT and has gradually built his resume over the last few years. He has broken through to land his first full-time job as a college head coach.

Not so fast my friend @Brett Vito

Don't like either of those ND guys better than Tommy Perry. If one of those is truly the hire, I feel it will be an epic mistake as neither has coached running backs and Perry was fantastic at it.

Scott Booker would be huge for the ST job.

He's the number 20 recruiter in the nation

Good for Y'Barbo!   Hoping this is the start of a stellar career.

I'd be on board with Booker for sure.   @TheReal_jayD, you've cryptically put out that the potential new guy would be an ace recruiter, and Booker certainly fits that bill...  Is this the guy you've heard about?

I heard there was a possibilty it was Booker. But the new Hire is Marty Biagi.

Interesting.  We fired the ST coach with the 67th ranked special teams in the nation (who also had good success as a recruiter and RB coach) to bring on a guy who was an "analyst" for the 81st ranked special teams.

EDIT: Or, per ESPN, the 48th ranked for the 101st ranked: http://www.espn.com/college-football/statistics/teamratings/_/sort/stEfficiency/tab/efficiency

A former kicker from Marshall who never coached running backs. This strikes me as a disaster. He has only coached DBs and special teams. I hate this hire.

Who will coach RBs then? Mainord? Littrell?

Guess would be Littrell, as he's had a strong influence with RB's everywhere that he's been. Maybe Tashard Choice helps out until the 10th assistant comes into play? At least from afar, he appeared to be tied with Perry during games, often times subbing the RB's and FB's in and out of the game for various personnel packages.

I suppose I'm good with that. I know Littrell is a good RB coach, just not sure how much time he can dedicate to it.

    • This is really cool considering that we're located in a significant zone and it will be happening during the game. To your question, I don't recall any major sports activity experiencing a > 80% eclipse.  I'm sure it's happened, but probably pretty rare. Here's an animation of the affects/times for the entire Earth. https://science.nasa.gov/eclipses/future-eclipses/eclipse-2023/
    • The practice facility wasn't an issue getting Perry to NT.   Obviously it attracted you to NT also...
    • The odds line has went from Navy -5 to -6 points for our game. Navy hosted USF last weekend.  Navy controlled the clock 31 min to 29 min (expected with a running offense).  Navy rushed 48 times for 254 yds.  USF 44 times for only 135 yards.  However, Navy only passed 11 times for 90 yards, compared to USF passing 34 times for 338 yards.  In summary Navy had 59 plays to USF's 78 plays.  USF won 44-30. Navy will get their yards rushing, but we have to get a lot more passing!
    • Last 2 games against inferior schools (Dallas Adamson  & Dallas Spruce), Kerry had a 75 yard pick 6 (Adamson) and a 77 yard pick 6 against Spruce. Their overall secondary got off to a shaky start of the season but is improving. 
    • I had a great time as I usually do.  Some great observations made in this thread.  I drive right at 2 hours to the games, so I got a head start on the drive home and didn’t stay for the drone show.  I wanted to, but I knew I could be about halfway home by the time it ended.  Glad to hear it was worth staying for though.  Next time I might choose to stay. Minor complaint:  Why can’t the NE scoreboard show more scores?  It kept showing the same 9 scores over and over.  I’ve noticed in the past they don’t show a lot of scores, but never realized it was so few.  I don’t want scores constantly running, but maybe during a timeout run through 20-30 different games.
