    The Rutgers TOS board has zero posts about this....

    Not saying it isn't true, but either they are deleting posts like crazy, or it is just a rumor, IMO.

    Rutgers has fans?

  • Caroo would definitely be interested, and is the type of playmaker they are looking for in this class...

    My friend's father claims to be a fan. So there's at least one.

  • Just think of the possibilities if we can lock down NJ. There will be some serious hype in the future for the PSU vs OSU rivalry. I couldn't imagine if we snuck away with Lambert, Denman, and Muller especially if we get Cox, Morgan and Moore. BOB its time to play!

    So what happens to our current commits? If Skylar decommits and Warner is asked to greyshirt, that would leave us with 17 commits... That would leave room for 6. If we take 3 from RU... And get Cox and Moore. Who gets that last spot? Schwan? Or Boyd? Is anyone else asked to greyshirt? This would be an amazing finish...

    It would be much much more realistic we get none of those five you mentioned than even getting 3 of them lol

  • Just got off the phone with a friend of mine who is a GA at Rutgers. He said he's going in to the office now and that Schiano has been out of the office all week. He said he interviewed for the St.Louis job already and that his dream job is to be the next Giants coach. He knows that he may have to take a lower tier NFL job first. Also he said Schiano is not the impressive recruiter that it is Jeff Halsey?(going by phone). I'll look it up in a minute. He's the OC and said he is a beast on the recruiting trail and that Rutgers would make him HC and he would most likely be able to retain most of the recruits.

    And they are my second team behind my beloved nits..

    but i think he takes a bad rap..even on this board..
    he took THE worst school in the Worst confrence, with tough academic standards and made then at least decent..
    then toss in his NFL sucess of his players (Rice, Leonard, Davis, McCourty's, Britt, Foster, Westerman) ....

    I think he done alot with litte

    Thanks for the input. This will be a very interesting development for recruiting purposes, if true.

    Jeff Hafley is the DB coach. He is a sub-par coach, but the guy is one of the best recruiters in the nation. The OC is Cignetti. Both are former Pitt coaches with Wanny.

  • Also the same buddy hung out with Butler and the new strength coach Fitz down in SC for a week and said they are both awesome dudes, just a tidbit. Praying my buddy gets up to STATE eventually as thats my dream for him and me haha.

  • Exact words were "terrible coach, unbelievable recruiter". So that makes a lot of sense.

  • I may have gotten what he was saying mixed up. Cignetti as the HC and Halfey would stay and that would mean they keep the recruits? It's a possibility. I tried to get off the phone and get my thoughts on paper as quick as possible as it was an unexpected call. I texted him and he called back right away. I thought he would text back

    Rutgers is a fine academic institution, but Schiano got them to accept kids well below their standard. Heck, Givens couldn't get into PSU, UNC or USCe, so we went to Rutgers.

    Schiano has underachieved. He had the talent to win the Big East for the last 5 years and I don't think he has ever finished better than 3rd in the conference. Regardless of how bad they were, it shouldn't take 11 years to win the Big East.

    Personally, I think he is a good guy, has a very good defensive mind, but I question his gameday decisions all the time.

    Don't take it personally. A lot of people simply use VIP posts all the time because it generally helps prevent trolling from other fans.

    it was probably an accident...relax. The comment contains no info at all and is just about the lack or Rutgers/Pitt fans.

  • Per Adam Schefter's twitter, Schiano is in and they are just ironing out contract.
