Bo Pelini to Youngstown State was a thing until Pelini called it a "complete fabrication of the truth." But that was last week.

Today, Pelini was introduced as Youngstown State's new head coach. At his introductory presser, Pelini wasted no time in praising his new boss, Youngstown State president James Patrick Tressel (and also taking a shot at his former bosses, current Nebraska president James Linder and his predecessor, James Milliken).

Per Youngstown State, Pelini is only one of two Power 5 conference football coaches to win nine games in each of the last seven years. On the similar vein I tapped over here: Unless Jim Harbaugh decides to rescue Michigan, there's a solid chance the Big Ten was out-hired by Youngstown State. (No offense to Youngstown State, of course.)
