Default Greg Schiano

After bringing Rutgers to the height of big time college football in a state that has some of the best High School prospects in the country, you have to wonder what the heck TB is thinking hiring the legendary Greg Schiano..lol what a joke.. Greg Schiano?

I'd also add PA & OH as states that pump out better football prospects than NJ imo.

Rutgers couldn't win a game when I was growing up.

They made the football program at Duke look like a powerhouse.

Steve Slaton and Avon Coburne were arguably 2 of the best all time running backs in WVU history. Coburne was from NJ and Slaton was from Philly. Neither gave Schiano a thought. The list great HS position players from NJ that wound up at WVU during Schiano's tenure is staggering.

He couldn't recruit, he couldn't win, (one season where he actually didn't suck, but still managed to not win the Big East with Ray rice in a conference completely void of defense excluded), and never from what I have seen, had buy in nor the commitment from his hand picked staff that they had any confidence in his ability whatsoever. He's historically made poor calls on the field, which further demoralized his teams.

He ought to buy Ray Rice a Mercedes, because without his legacy, the guy wouldn't be able to get a job coaching pop warner.
