While the move is definitely a result of Lustig's Edinboro squad orchestrating the biggest turnaround in D2 history (from 0-11 to 9-2), this is still a shock after the former [URL='http://herosports.com/colleges/teams/ball-state-mens-football']Ball State[/URL] assistant only served one year in Northwestern PA. Under Lustig, the Fighting Scots became an offensively-dominated program, raising the game of almost every player on the team to the point of success that 'Boro had not tasted in nearly a decade. Chief among the improvements was Jake Sisson, the junior quarterback for the Scots who enjoyed near record-breaking numbers for the program and looked to be one of the brightest stars returning to the PSAC this season. While the Scots should definitely be a decent team still, there is now a cloud of doubt hanging above the football team as their former coach left just two days into spring practices. From a team that once looked like a sneaky contender who could get into the D2 Playoffs, Edinboro now resembles a program that has no compass on their map to success. There is no word on what this could do for recruiting, as there are no out-clauses in D2 recruiting as there are in the FBS or FCS. So the 20 or so players that signed to play under Lustig will now be forced to play for a new coach, at least for one season.[/I] ...
