I am an example of where RU went wrong. I had 6 season tickets during Schiano ver.1 and reduced it to 4 when Kyle Flood was promoted(could not understand how a coach who was demoted could be named the HC). Then after the second year of Flood I gave up my 4 tickets but I still followed the team on TV. That all came to an end during the Ash (Mr. tire tug of war) error and I have not watched a full game since. Schiano has been a poor band aid.
Schiano is a good person but an awful, awful game day coach (always has been). He is missing a screw somewhere. On the sidelines he just looks like he is in an alternate universe and not connected to the flow of the game. I guarantee he will have at least one more off the wall decision that will have, not only RU fans scratching their heads, but will have the national media laughing at RU.
Now if RU doesn't straighten out the ship (by firing GS and getting the new hire right) there is a possibility of RU getting thrown out of the Big Ten because RU is no longer bringing eyeballs to the party.
While I don't believe a full-time member of a conference has ever been removed in FBS, I can see this happening if the Protect College Sports Act (or something similar) passes Congress that limits the number of programs per conference. We may begin to see teams getting removed from conferences is pursuit of the almighty dollar.
