Default Greg Schiano's NFL career's death watch thread

He's got to go. Period. He's made a laughing stock of the city and a joke of the franchise.

Unfortunately, most of us saw this coming straight down Dale Mabry Blvd. 2 years ago:

this team has enough raw talent to be competitive in the division, now I'm not certain that they will even beat Jacksonville.


What a god-awful mess.

Can't take credit for this as I saw someone post it on twitter.

Revis thought he was leaving the circus when he got traded away from the Jets.

Yeah, what a shame. Of course shelling out 19 mil for a cornerback when you had your mind made up last spring that Freeman wasn't your guy at QB is even more of a charlie foxtrot. The Glazers have never made a move mid season, and I don't expect them to now. This bye week could not have come at a worse time for both Mark Dominic and Greg Schiano.

This kind of stuff is coming out daily, and with another week and a half to go, its likely to boil over at some point.

Who knows, maybe Schiano can schedule the Bucs to play the likes of Coastal Carolina and Howard for a few weeks and try to get the train back on the tracks.

But that's what so many of these college guys don't get. Grown men will not be pushed around. These guys can only abuse college kids because they don't know any better. And that is wrong.

Rutgers was abysmal in an abysmal conference. Save West Virginia, there was nothing left in the conference when he was there. After his first season (where he went 2-11) Miami and Va Tech left. he amassed an eye popping record of 28-48 at Rutgers against Big East opponents.

Perhaps he was anticipating the Pro's would be easier than Rutgers, cuz he did absolutely nothing there either.

They called all 31 teams and no interest was there so they cut him.

There's always the CFL!

Bigs used to preach that the biggest problem the team has is it's owners.

They were completely overextended by purchasing Man U. This year seemed very different. Freeman actually looked good for all of 3 or 4 games last year (the last 2 were atrocious) and the ownership dedicated money they typically have not spent this year as they, again, look to have the right pieces in place to show up well.

They announced last week that "They anticipated 85% of the tickets will be sold for the balance of the season, so they lifted the local blackout rule".

They are going to spend millions more buying up all the empty seats.

There will be heads rolling.
