Schiano to OSU replacing Ash

[Spare130_rivals]

Ugh this is bad news

 

[UMRU]

Wow, I was hoping Michigan would go after him.

This worries me.

 

[MoobyCow]

Damn good hire, and likely good for Schiano to rehab his reputation and pick up some more pointers.

 

[RUInsanityToo]

Sorry but how is this bad news? It's not like we were beating OSU with Urban Meyer anytime soon.

 

[REDRICH65]

Hope not true.

 

[rutgersguy1_rivals]

Looks like he finally realized his attractiveness, or non attractiveness as HC, and found a great landing spot. This is a great place to rehab his image and learn from a superstar HC. From OSU DC he definitely can get another HC job in college.

Adam Schefter‏@AdamSchefter
Former Bucs HC Greg Schiano expected to accept Assoc HC/DC at Ohio State, per source; will replace former OSU DC Chris Ash, new Rutgers HC.

 

[rexofpoland]

Rutgers should have hired him.

 

[Spare130_rivals]

It's bad news because he can recruit NJ and he will be a very good DC.

Schiano might be a hassle for Rutgers to recruit against in NJ

[RUSONIC]

We were tricked, OS unloaded their DC on us so we wouldn't hire Schiano back so OS could get him. Where is my tin foil hat!!!!!

 

[RU2007RSLN2010]

Schiano isn't going to make it easy for Ash with recruiting NJ.

 

[Ole Cabbagehead]

I cant imagine a guy with an ego the size of Greg's going to work with Urban. Very interesting hire.

 

[MoobyCow]

Meh, OSU is picking a couple of top kids from NJ and with or without Greg they have a good shot at picking them up.

As for being a good DC, well it is OSU, they were likely to get a pretty good hire.

 

[RUtix4me]

"Our worst nightmare" i just wanted to be the first to say that. We have more issues than him.

 

[RUwoz]

This, we may not beat OSU on the field but for a couple recruits this may keep jersey closed

 

[MozRU]

God D....

 

[scarlet_ty_rivals]

But...I thought he was happy in FL and didn't want to come up North

 

[rutgersguy1_rivals]

He's not going to make any more of a difference recruiting NJ than going up against Urban Meyer would. It's a negligible difference. Urban alone vs Urban/Schiano isn't much difference to me.

 

[ScarletWalk11]

Guys, we are running the spread now. We are going to own OSU

 

[bac2therac]

hahahaha, some of you are too funny...big deal. OSU eats our lunch and everyones lunch. They poach the best in NJ...Greg Schiano aint the game changer for OSU. stop worrying, nothing to see here except for reality seeping in for Greg on his worth

 

[ruready4somefootball_rivals]

Makes sense,since I seem to remember Greg and Urban being close and coaching clinics together.

 

[rutgers48]

Bad news b/c Schiano is a decent recruiter and his recruiting base is the "State of Rutgers" (and Florida). Basically, our base. Its not about beating OSU. Its about losing recruits from our home turf to OSU, who's recruitment of NJ just got easier by hiring Schiano. I mean, come on, if Meyer and Schiano knock on your front door together, are you not going to open it?

 

[bac2therac]

please stop hand wringing

 

[PatrickRU92]

Look if he's going to go anywhere in our territory, probably best he goes to OSU.

OSU can recruit for itself. I am a GS fan but I don't see how he would make their recruiting "better" than it is.

How ironic!

 

[RUInsanityToo]

For those saying it's bad news because of recruiting think about how stupid that sounds. OSU with Meyer can pretty much already get any recruit it wants. Stop being afraid of your own shadows.

Meyer does not need Schiano to recruiting NJ, he does it already..good lord they recruit nationally and are not taking every single NJ recruit because they have Schiano...please the guy is not some freaking god

 

[ru8081]

Can Ash take his assistants now?

 

[32Mine]

At most how many kids can he poach from NJ. Two? Three? Happens every year. OSU has always been Ohio heavy

 

[Underdogs88]

Schiano always had trouble defending against spread offenses. WVU owned us.

 

[Zombo NJ]

How many NJ kids OSU really wanted were going to RU?

Not too many...at least not now...I think he's out of there soon enough
anyway...2 years max..just at the point Ash is really starting to fly here
IMO....

Not thinking this is as big of a deal as others do....

Schiano to me is a negligible difference. You're going to open the door anyway because it's Urban Meyer, not because Schiano is there. His name alone is tough to beat, anything after him is a diminishing return and marginal at best.

 

[RUchip]

Schiano will not negatively recruit against RU. Hes going to be recruting nationally. He won't bash Rutgers when recruting NJ kids.

 

[straighttalkexpress]

He'll be there 1 year tops... unless Urban bolts for the Browns. Then he's OSU's next HC

 

[RU2055]

Now if we can get an OC like RR we'd be set.

 

[jabba2]

Schiano's been out of the loop for awhile. I dont see it as a game changer for Urban in NJ. The same thing was said when LJ was hired a few years ago. PSU has done pretty well head to head on DL recruits.

 

[S.B. Crumb]

hahahaha, some of you are too funny...big deal. OSU eats our lunch and everyones lunch. They poach the best in NJ...Greg Schiano aint the game changer for OSU. stop worrying, nothing to see here except for reality seeping in for Greg on his worth

This. MUCH better to go to a place that is basically running itself than places like UVA, CUSE, MD, etc. that are our local recruiting competition at the moment and rehabbing them.

Hope Ash does his job cuz then the OSU games will have even more juice!

 

[sodakboy93]

Ohio State could have a Capuchin monkey as their DC and still pull four-star recruits from wherever they want. I wouldn't freak out about this hire.

The reality is that Schiano won't be there more than 1-2 years anyway until he takes the Indiana or Illinois jobs when they inevitably open up.

REVENGE....speak fondly then use a B1G STICK....FROM BOTH ENDS.....GS for counting on the ''U'' job and ending up redfaced....UM cause we took a prize away from him....beginnings of something maybe..
