| NEWS BREAKING NEWS: Greg Schiano returns as Rutgers coach after miraculous reversal
- Thread starter RTB X Bot
- Start date
Why would anyone want to go there? If this rumor is true, he needs to seriously rethink that option.
Might feel like he has to start somewhere. Dude has zero visibility at Bama as far as rehabilitating his coaching career.
More importantly, who's gonna fetch Nick's Lil' Debbies and coffee, and Miss T's dry celaning?
Or wash Coach Saban's car?
No, I agree with the others. This is a good place for him to start over and make some kind of name for himself. Even Lester couldn't land a gig better than Kansas. If Anger
can win a few games and actually get Rutgers bowl eligible in a few years, he could land a better gig elsewhere.
Sure Vol fans will be happy for him...lol
Why?
Because he is a coach and he wants to coach.
IMO he is decent OC material but he was also a decent coach (competition accounted for) at Central Mi and Cincy
Obviously I don't want him coaching UA but Rutgers could very well be a program where he could continue rebuilding his reputation

I'm just trying to figure out how we can replace his presence on our sideline.... haha
Not gonna lie though I kind of enjoy seeing him over there celebrating TD's. Sweet job he has!

Tennessee appears to be one also.....these days for sure
They play in SHI Stadium.... all that's needed is crossing the "T" for their games to be real

After more than a month of silence and speculation, the Rutgers coaching search appears to have revved back up.
The Scarlet Knights completed their first interview Friday when they screened Butch Jones, according to an NJ Advance Media report.
Rutgers fired fourth-year head coach Chris Ash one day after Sept. 28's 52-0 loss at Michigan, which dropped the team to a 1-3 start (0-2 Big Ten).
Jones is in his second season as an offensive analyst for Alabama, which hired him after his five-year stint at the helm for Tennessee.
He boasts previous head-coaching experience at Cincinnati (2010-12) and Central Michigan (2007-09).
Jones boasts previous connections to Rutgers, where he actually started his coaching career as a graduate assistant from 1990-92.
He went 34-27 with the Volunteers but became a popular punching bag for his occasional comments, like when he said one of his teams “won the biggest championship — that’s the championship of life.”
After consecutive 9-4 campaigns from 2015-16, Jones started 4-6 (0-6 SEC) in 2017, leading to Tennessee's midseason termination.
Any coach should wait. There will be more openings in the next few weeks. Don't jump on an opportunity just because it's an opportunity. I don't think Rutgers, their players or the fan base are ready for an SEC-level coach doing the things that are necessary to turn that program around.
I think he could stay one more season at Bama and UT would supplement his $35,000 Bama salary. He's not going to learn more than he does at Bama anywhere else, but he does need a little more exposure as a mid-major or major conference cellar HC if he plans to make it back to a premier job.
Why take the gig...……. 3.5 million for 5 years gets you 17.5 million bucks....the very best reason. Butch is 51 so adding those big bucks to his future retirement would be great. Everybody expects him to fail since everybody that coached at that shithole has pretty much failed over time so nobody will hold the results against him.
