What's right with this picture?

Coach signed to a ONE year contract at $90,000. SSU football championship subdivision classified football program is given 35 scholarships out of possible 63. The Tigers are on their second NCAA probation through May 18, 2009. Their 1-AA record is 6-58 since they moved up from Division II. They have no conference affiliation.

SSU only victory came in 2007, against Division II, Johnson C. Smith University. The Tigers lost against NAIA Edward Waters College, Division II Fort Valley State and Morehouse College and I-AA Morgan State, Bethune-Cookman, Charleston Southern, N.C.

So, who's expecting a miracle? Some schools should just stay outta Division I.
