Ohio State assistant Ryan Pedon to be head coach

[isuquinndog]

The number one reason I moved the site to this forum software was for a better ignore button. I even paid for it. So please, use it if you feel you need to.

With the Ohio State loss, I say welcome to ISU Coach Pedon!!! We trust you will hit the ground running. Look forward to what you can do for our program!

Alright, so who's in the video with him at the 15 second mark?

Kendall Lewis. You can hear him saying, they are filming me, which is why I think they went separate ways.

Yep that's Lewis. I believe he actually says Kendall which is a good sign he know his name vs "hey you".

Love the lighting in the video.

I think we would hear some assistant coaches being named shortly. Get them on board and hit the recruiting trail .... whether retaining or bringing in new players.

So much for an open door policy!

There was a mention in the Benson article where Pedon is quoted as saying "I've expressed to them I'm not going to sell them on buying something that they don't want to be a part of. The first key for me is always communicate with them in truth and honesty and understand where they're at in their journey and what they're looking for, at end of the day we want players who want to be here and take pride in being here and take pride in wearing the name on front of their jerseys. I'm very confident we'll find those players. My hope is those guys in the locker room are going to jump on board."

I've had Howard like stuff on twitter, Sy's mom and Josiah's mom like some of my stuff with the coaching change.

cubird! Not exact words but basically saying same thing I quoted Coach Pedon as saying on the Transfer Portal thread. You either want to be here or you don’t. Tone has made it clear by putting his name in the Transfer Portal that Illinois State is not his #1 priority. Seeking greener pastures is!

Sy is a really interesting case...how many teams would be willing to take a chance on him coming off an ACL injury?

Nobody wants your $0.02. You want them to fire Pedon and rehire Muller.

Parents don’t serve as the best barometer for gauging their kids’ intentions. likearoc loved coming on here, and DJ’s parents really seemed to love Redbird Basketball - but their kids still moved on.

Now if one of our guys had a dad like Noah Carter’s, said parent could totally give a strong indication that his son wouldn’t be sticking around…
