Feb 27 2044: Walker Takes Over Youngstown State - by TCM122 on March 22nd, 2025

The Penguins made the simple, black-and-white decision to sign Gabriel Walker as the next head coach of YSU. "We've been known for being flightless for too long," declared the University President. "But now, these Penguins are ready to soar." The Penguins seek to slide back into Division II after being demoted in 2041.
