He is polar opposite of Mo. Humble, zero overconfidence, preaches doing things the right way without flash. Impressed by Day 1 - Let's see what he does now.

Just give us competent football to start. The comment about not beating yourself couldn't be more apt here.

This is pretty standard. It is hard to go into a recruits home and not have the contract guarantee that you will be there the whole time they are. As for the hire, I don't need coach speak today, Mo did enough of that to get me through the next 5 years. I just want a football guy, who doesn't care about the distractions. I will be interested to see what kind of staff he builds around him.

I tend to agree with you on that. He has a lot of support from people that you would think would know about these things. I'm not sure what would have been an "inspiring hire" based upon our conference and financial abilities, but the more I read about this guy and his path and success, the more I think he can get us in the right direction. He is heralded as not just a good coach, but a good human, which goes a long way and usually resonates with players. We will see how it plays out, but this is our coach and until he proves otherwise, I am behind him and his vision for our future. I'm looking forward to the Press Conference, but don't expect to hear much that is earthshattering. He meets with the team at 1pm and that will be more important in my opinion.🤘🤘

Both Rana and Lewis-Williams with way too many turnovers and we have seen the trend now from these MAC teams. When Watson gets the ball out on the perimeter they double her and pressure her and she still tries to drive through them. Other players have to be open and you would think the coaching staff should figure out a different offensive philosophy. Do not understand why Ogden was not on the floor in the 4th quarter especially when she did hit some early three’s. Still think Davis needs to play more minutes if and it is a big if she can stay out of foul trouble. Still think this team is a work in progress and will see if anything will change as the season continues. The Bowling Green game on Wednesday will be a challenge as they have a better overall lineup than WMU.

Not too sure about this one. I'm worried about the Basheer matchup, a 6'9" guy who can pop out for the three. Ball St. does seem to struggle with the assist to turnover ratio on the road so there might be some extra possessions in our favor tonight if we can protect the ball ourselves. If we get the version of Isaiah Adams we got in Toledo, and some of the hustle I saw on defense during that game, we can win this one. How many games am I gonna say I think we can win until I learn? Go Bulls 🤘

Love this! My wife actually worked at a station he interned at lol

His introduction to the UB community -

I think this will prove to be a good hire. I've seen posts from people that know a lot more about football than most everyone on this board, that are very positive about the hire.

Alnutt takes criticism which he should. But he’s not a complete idiot. That product Mo put on the field last season had to embarrass the heck out of the AD. Those last 4 games on the ESPN networks were low FCS quality football at best. maybe even worse. I think this is a good choice to get the program in the right direction.

You aren't getting multi-star recruits. The trick in the MAC is to develop players. That's what makes coaching so important. Mo wasn't just in over his head, he was at the bottom of pool.

So, Lembo was coach of Lehigh when they beat us back in 2002. I like the hire....

Lembo calls Fort Wayne a cultural "hub" to the likes of Vienna or Istanbul compared to Muncie. He's a big fan of the oyster bar there.

Big fan of your work

Checks some of the boxes I was looking for. I’m trying to be positive. The last guy was a clown show. At least Lembo has been there and done it before. Seems like a safe choice, but that’s kind of what UB needs at this time. Get the program back on track.
