faba Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 Schiano tells Miami he's not leaving Rutgers ESPN.com news services After coming within a 52-yard field goal of bringing Rutgers its first Big East title in school history, Greg Schiano has risen to the top of many schools' wish lists this holiday season. But his wish is to stay at Rutgers. AP Photo/Mel Evans Greg Schiano turned down Miami to continue building on his recent Rutgers success. Schiano said at his weekly news conference Monday that he he talked with Miami in the last 24 hours about its vacant coaching job, but he told the school he's staying at Rutgers. Schiano has a pre-existing relationship with Miami athletic director Paul Dee, having served as Miami's defensive coordinator from 1999-2000. Rutgers struggled for years before its resurgence under Schiano, who on Friday was named Home Depot's coach of the year. This year, the Scarlet Knights won their first nine games and were ranked as high as No. 7 before going 1-2 down the stretch. Despite that disappointment, Schiano said, his team won't let down for the Texas Bowl. "Certainly, there's disappointment," he said. "We had an opportunity to be in the BCS, and more importantly to be league champions. To come close and not get it hurts. "But in 137 years of football, we've only been to two bowl games, so we're thrilled to be going to another bowl game -- and for the first time in our history, to be going to back-to-back bowl games." No. 13 Rutgers fell short of the Big East title and their first BCS berth with a 41-39, triple-overtime loss at No. 15 West Virginia on Saturday. The defeat gave Louisville the Big East's automatic bid as conference champion. Rutgers' 10-2 season was its best since going 11-0 in 1976. On Sunday, the Scarlet Knights accepted an invitation to the Texas Bowl on Dec. 28 in Houston, where they will take on Kansas State. Miami has been in the market for a coach since the school fired Larry Coker on Nov. 24, a day after the Hurricanes beat Boston College 17-14 to salvage a 6-6 season. Coker, 59-15 with one national championship in his six years in Coral Gables, will coach the Canes in the MPC Computers Bowl on Dec. 31. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably. Maybe the U should spend some of that Emerald money on upgrading their facilties. Has anyone left JoePa's staff? Ever? Aren't they all as old as him?

Scott Dierking Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 he's gonna cash in at home. Mike- 10-2 with Rutgers gets you teh Texas Bowl. 10-2 in a major conference gets you BCS recognition. Rutgers has a 50,000 seat stadium in a limited conference with fair recruiting exposure. A Penn State gives you 104,000, with luxury boxes, ample booster support and a tremendous recruiting base. It is NATIONAL recognition. Unless Schiano is totally egoless, there is not a chance that he would resist the call to the right program in teh right conference. Sorry, but the Rutgers football job is not one that coaches traditionally strive for as their resting place. It is just the way it is. Trust me, any money that Rutgers can give, can be had elsewhere. I don't believe it will be PSU, but there have been whispers. I don't know the man either. Unles he is totally altrusitic, Rutgers will not be a long stay.

He's going to get paid and The only reason a 10-2 team from the big east isn't in the BCS is money and the names of teams. There is NO REASON you can't make BCS games in the big east and Rutgers is in as good as position as any team to do that over the long haul right now.

And that money and Name of the teams will REMAIN to be a problem. The BIG EAST has recognition problems and will never measure to teh big coinferences. That is a fact and a reality. Unless Schiano is truly in love, or afraid, he will move. It is just the way the coaching hierarchy works. Name for me one coach that stayed and was content to stay at a smaller school when the others beckoned? I can think of Lavelle Edwards, and BYU is certainly not a small school, but wiull acept it for this dialogue. Look at what Dan Hawkins did at Boise.

Rutgers is just as big of a school as any of the major football powers in the country and they are sitting on top of a recruiting GOLD MINE in new jersey. There is NO REASON AT ALL why Rutgers can't be a national football power year in and year out. There is a reason why rodriguez and patrino are staying in the big east just like GS is staying the big east was the 2nd ranked conference this year according to the majority of the polls and there is no reason for that to change with up and coming teams like cincy and south florida.

Yeah, they are such a strong conference that their 2nd best team goes to the Texas Bowl. What recognition. BTW-Penn State, which had a lousy year and finished with 4 losses. Well, they are going to The Outback Bowl on New Years Day. Which will bring their program much more recognition and money. Congrats on your new found presige and glory. That paid off handsomely. You get to play on teh NFL Network, where maybe 1/2 of the country can see you. RECRUITING BONANZA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rutgers is right there with WVU and louisville and we're better then some teams that are playing in the BCS because of where they started out and what their name is. Did i say the big 10 is worse then the big east? I don't remember saying that. That doesn't mean that we can't compete for national titles yearly.

If Rutgers went UNDEFEATED, they would not be playing Ohio State this year. THAT is why you can't compete for National titles annually. And that is why Schiano would be hard pressed to stay.

If they wanted to put just an undefeated team from a mid conference, they would have put Boise State there. NO WAY an undefeated Rutgers goes to teh Nat Championship. That is flat wrong.

Florida played the most difficult schedule in the country. They played a conference championship game. When Rutgers was UNDEFEATED, they were .19 behind the BCS leader and second place team at the time. There is ZERO chance they would have made that ground up unless the team had 2 losses. ZERO. IMPOSSIBLE. I am glad that you enjoyed the spotlight this year. It also was your first go round in this rodeo, so please don't make statements that make no sense.
