Someone tell Blank that "hope" is not a strategy. There is actually a really good book with that title.

best thing Blank did was move aside and let Curt take control ... He knows what He needs to do.
One point is our weakest link is Quarterback play. Our new guy has worked with a number of successful ones Let's see what gives.

Any word on staff? He met with the old staff afterward so wasn't sure if any one heard if he kept any of them?

Sounded very dumb "Alabama I think you have heard of them" Give me a break and fire this guy. Also CC seems to fit his offense much better. Has had mobile QBs from what I have watched and read about his past teams. |

Pretty interesting situation at IUP right now with their QBs...they have two outstanding QBs, both will be juniors next year, and the better of the two (Lenny Williams) is recovering from a knee injury that may not make him 100% next season...would it be that unrealistic to think Cignetti would brink Williams with him to Elon and have him sit out the 2017 season (due to NCAA regulations for transfers) as he recovers from his injury anyway...
Just a thought.

Just a thought. Starting a thread on this topic. |

from Scott Bilo College Football Report FCS rankings
Elon
Curt Cignetti
Rich Skrosky left to join the new staff under Butch Davis at FIU, but who knew that Elon would gain by attrition? Cignetti has worked for Nick Saban at Alabama, so you know what his pedigree is. He has a 53-17 record as head coach at D2 IUP, and has only once lost more than 2 games in PSAC play. In short, he is a winner, and Elon needs a winner. Other than coaching at Alabama, he has a ton of FBS experience, which is rare for a D2 head coach.
Grade: A+
