We will never ever be successful if we keep focusing on the money.

We will never have the money for winning the B1G.
More fake and false arguments to defend Schiano.

Literally nobody expects him to win the B1G.
Nobody expects a new coach to come in and win the B1G (although some posters will 100% hold the new coach to a higher standard than they held Schiano - I would guess you are one of them).

It's about having a coach who can maximize our level of success based on our level of money.

Simple question: Is Schiano achieving 100% success based on our expected funding?
If you say yes, then pur expectations should be bottom of the B1G?
Zinn’s expectations are 9th.

We should focus on reality. We should feel lucky to have a Coach who we are not ashamed of! We should demand that the the LSU carpetbaggers either get the money to compete or get out! Zinn and Tate were brought in for football. If they can’t do the job, just like Hobbs before them, they should go.

And, if we aren’t going to compete, the we should consider abandoning the professional college football!
Schiano is a scapegoat for the failure of others.

Without NIL, changing coaches is a flim flam!
It’s three card monte!
You live in a drug induced fantasy world, blowing $23 million in NIL is plenty to be ashamed about. Getting d*ck punched by UMass was a national embarrassment. Constantly being outcoached and not having the team prepared by a veteran head coach is clown shoes level bad.

hahahahah.

LOL, you're a beta keyboard warrior who doesn't understand that Keli made every effort to fire Greg and even though several donors said no.

Her press release neutered him and said I'm holding his nuts and plan to roast them if he doesn't meet the performance goals we set out for him to achieve next year.

Greg knows who his boss is for the first time in his career and she has ice in her veins.

Ok buddy. Greg is back at the end of day. And you whiffed. Back to mom's basement for you for another 12 months.

The only reason that fool is back in 27 is because we can’t do better; we can’t afford to fire the has been…at any real P4 program he would have been gone last year…

Man if I had a boss who made it clear the only reason I was still there was because of a contract they couldn’t get out of, I’d just negotiate an exit.

While we disagree on the playoff expansion (I'd prefer more auto bids instead of 19 At large that the CFP Committee will manage to make controversial due to SEC favoritism), the 12-team playoff has rendered it nearly completely irrelevant, so I completely agree the 24-team will make it meaningless for P4 programs. Last year 6-6 Kansas State refused a bowl. There were four P4 6-6 / 5-7 teams who played in bowl games and half played other P4 programs:

Northwestern beat 7-5 Central Michigan in the GameAbove Sports Bowl
Penn State beat 7-5 Clemson in the Pinstripe Bowl
Cal beat 8-4 Hawaii in the Hawaii Bowl
(5-7) Mississippi State lost to 8-4 Wake Forest in the Duke's Mayo Bowl

Next year's Pinstripe could feature a 6-6 vs 5-7 matchup or a G6 team when you remove 10 -- 12 P4 teams from the Bowl pool. With the number of teams opting out, we could see a couple of 4-8 teams playing in Bowl games.
Or more likely several of the Bowls will disappear altogether.

When contracts are guaranteed, you don't care how hostile the work environment is.
That and the fact that he knows he’s toxic and will never have a career beyond this tenure. If he was younger you can have the conversation.
We can fire you and you will have an issue getting another job. Or you can start looking at other opportunities. He just knows he’s got no other opportunities.
Only thing to do is play into his ego and let him know his self perceived legacy will forever be tarnished the longer he stays. And he will be persona non grata going forward.

Schiano is not the problem!
It’s the money! Zinn failed.

Look where we got our transfers from, are you kidding me? We do not have the $$$.
We don’t have the players we need to compete. Fingers crossed, maybe we were saving up NIL for next season.
Look, with our budget, we probably can’t afford a 2 million dollar player and let’s say Raymond and Asamoah were a million each. That’s 4 million on 3 players.

You can’t look at where the transfers came from and use that as evidence without looking at the total budget and how it was used.

AND without a DC in place and taking 60+ days to hire, that had to have made it monumentally harder. Schiano already said the DC search distracted from the portal and as many of us kept saying , who is going to commit to a program with no DC?!
