Schiano talks are off
- Thread starter RRRRUUUU
- Start date
Pat Hobbs has bungled this search to a spectacular level.
Yes! Finally investing in our football program and not trying to appease fans looking for a nostalgia trip!!
Maybe Schiano is content being retired. He is in his 50s and it wouldn't be a bad life.
Investing in what? A young coordinator who has never coached before. More Mickey Mouse assistants. Time for more recruiting battles with bucknell.
we should drop to the AAC
Bye bye. I am a official a Clemson fan now. #ALLIN #BYOG #IPTAY
Who would you like to see as our next coach?
And I'm not trying to be confrontational ... honestly ... I'm just wondering who someone that doesn't want Schiano as our coach wants to see instead.
I accept any and all apologies from those that mocked me.
Brett McMurphy’s piece on stadium.com suggests Greg’s heart wasn’t really into coming back. Seems strange. Wonder if he would ever want to be an AD.
Unless it’s because Butch Jones or Urban Meyer is accepting the position, I don’t know what to say.
Good riddance-- your posts have been misery all year.
"Rutgers was prepared to offer Schiano an eight-year, $32 million deal – of which $25.2 million was fully-guaranteed – and an additional $7.5 million annually for his assistant coaches and support staff, a source said. This would have put Rutgers in the upper-half of the Big Ten in salaries, but a significant gap remained between Schiano and Rutgers, a source said."
Sucks, but those demands from GS, if true, are absurd.
It is reported that Schiano turned down $4 million per year for eight years. If those figures are true, the deal is more than generous considering his market worth. The blame should go to Schiano for being greedy and refusing the deal.
Personally I wanted schiano but was never ‘schiano or nothing’ however if they don’t bring in a coach who can personally bring recruits on his name/persona alone without any performance from the ru team on the field, there’s no point in even having us discuss a coach or spending any quality salary.
That transfer portal will have to be expanded . And the decommits will be pretty much all of them If something is going to be bad make it worse than bad has ever been. We have done that. Nice...

"Rutgers was prepared to offer Schiano an eight-year, $32 million deal – of which $25.2 million was fully-guaranteed – and an additional $7.5 million annually for his assistant coaches and support staff, a source said. This would have put Rutgers in the upper-half of the Big Ten in salaries, but a significant gap remained between Schiano and Rutgers, a source said."
“The timing wasn’t right for Schiano, and this is the Big Ten: Whether it’s Rutgers, Penn State or Michigan, head coaches need to be all-in for their job if they’re going to have success,” a source said.
“You can’t take this position with ‘the glass is half empty’ culture. Rutgers fans deserve more.”
It was reported that Rutgers AD Pat Hobbs, the school’s Board of Governors and even public officials had met with Schiano to discuss the job. New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy spoke to Schiano about returning to Rutgers, Rutgers Sports Insider reported.
“You can’t blame Rutgers for not allocating more money or the Board of Governors for being concerned about his unprecedented request and the financial impact of the contract,” a source said. “And you can’t blame Schiano for not wanting to go back to a job he’s already done. Been there, done that. No one wants a New England Patriots situation.”
In February, Schiano was hired to be New England’s new defensive coordinator. However, he resigned a few weeks later, stating, “I need to spend more time on my faith and family.”
“Can you imagine if Schiano reconsidered and resigned from Rutgers after accepting the job?” a source said. “It wouldn’t be good for the kids, coaches, recruiting or winning. It’s good, everyone was all above-board.”

Numbers has a lot of explaining to do :Sly:
he should know what he can offer before it gets here. He didn’t do his homework. Amateur hour.
can you tell me what your insiders are saying happens next? That way I know exactly what isn’t happening.
if true and I was a Greg supporter--HAPPILY MOVE ON
As I thought all along Greg is enjoying life and retirement and didn’t want to come back ...
this or drop out of the B1G for football.
Perennial bottom feeders in CFB and a laughingstock in the B1G is no way to continue.
Maybe this will change your mind:
https://www.nj.com/rutgersfootball/...be-rutgers-head-coach-deal-falls-through.html
"The initial sticking point between Rutgers and Schiano was his desire for a written guarantee the university would construct a fieldhouse to replace the practice bubble and serve as a new indoor facility, as well as replace the Hale Center with a new football-only building. Rutgers has long planned to build a fieldhouse but was not willing to guarantee Schiano’s demand for new program headquarters. Schiano then requested a longer contract and a larger salary pool for assistant coaches and support staff to offset the facilities compromise. The two sides were then unable to reach an agreement on those terms that would receive a majority approval vote from the Rutgers Board of Governors prior to the deal falling through."
So, how was Hobbs supposed to anticipate asks that were above an beyond what Les Miles go. Many sources said they offered Greg $32 million, 8 year deal. And he asked for even more when he did not get a new Hale Center. That's on Hobbs?
So glad they didn't pay this lifetime mediocre coach his ransom demand.
Now let's go get Luke Fiuckell and everyone will be happy by year 2.
