and just last year they were 3 points short of going to the NC game and finished with 13 wins.

and then fire their coach midway through the following season after a couple bad loses (cant even count Oregon as a bad loss).

its utterly insane... and I hate Franklin but the results speak for themselves.

this debacle is 100% due to the complete delusion of their fan base and administration. totally delusional and bungled.

...and again, I'm loving it
JF took VA tech recruiting class from 134 to a top 25 in 2 weeks. This is what they are gonna miss

State Penn is State Penn, they will get the recruits and win 8-9 games. The problem is that think they are elite, their ceiling is a really good football team
this. They think they are OSU or Michigan but they just aren't. Not to say they will never win a natty but winning 10-11 games every year is nothing to fire your coach over. Most coaches lose to OSU and MI more often than not

Is your premise that Rutgers fans shouldn't hold Schiano to a higher standard than 5-7 (2-7)?

That's fine.
But just seems to be an interesting defense of Schiano and his abilities as a coach.
"He's a great coach. We're lucky to have him. Mediocrity should be acceptable."

Going 5-7 after 2 winning seasons and reviving the program is different from say, going 5-7 back to back. Much like Franklin going to the finals of the playoff and losing to UCLA and NW the next year is different than losing to them in back to back seasons.
