Can We Finally Dump F.A.M.I.L.Y?

Only the CANON, mascots, and fight songs are traditional can't be messed with.

The TBA and Family and Chop are newer from the GS era. I can do with or without them.

Let him add his own thing. This is his team now.

Upstream Red Team!

Let's get rid of that garbage. No more Schiano isms. It's a clean slate. Let's play to win. Let's be ruthless on offense, violent on defense, and let's not let off the gas if we have an early lead.
My bet is we will hear a lot of "we want everyone in our program to be above the line" and we'll be "9 units strong"
 
The "F.A.M.I.L.Y" thing will organically die on its own since it was completely a Flood creation.. but I doubt anything else changes.

Like it or not, most "Schiano-isms" will be woven into RU fabric forever. Theyve been here too long. Fans, RU promo and event staff will continue doing and saying whatever they want to do or whatever remains popular. Honestly Ash comes off as the type of person who doesn't give a fxck about changing around slogans and uniforms, and colors like everyone on this board is so obsessed with. Doesn't come off as a custom builder or a culture creator. I highly doubt he has any preference with anything that doesn't translate to a win on the field. To me, he just wants to win football games point blank period and everything else is what it is.

F.A.M.I.L.Y. was all Schiano, after he almost left for Michigan.

Every coach wants to put their own stamp on a program. I would be shocked if he did not change the uniforms.

God yes. I loathed Barney-ball and "family" shtick. A basic term most teams use became rancid molasses
Need to fix the truck

Family sucks... its a football team, a very violent sport.... Like it or not but football teams have more in common with gangs than bible study groups... we hope to find good quality rutgers men out there, but at the end of the day you are looking for violent men.

I do not want us to get the aaron hernadez types, but we some testosterone flowing through our locker room after the flood castration.

And Ash is a huge admirer of Schiano.
Other than the lip service Ash paid Schiano in the press conference out in Columbus, when asked directly about Schiano consulting out there, what else has Ash said that leads you to believe that?

Thing is, nobody in that circumstance is going to say "I thought the guy my boss brought in to consult was a complete waste of money." Unless you have other data to support the claim that Ash is an admirer of Schiano, I'm not sold on it. No offense, just my opinion.
 
Please dump the pathetic uniforms and get back to tradition (oh, and win some conference games).
 
Second the announcers and 3rd down riff

I love the 3rd down riff...it looks awesome when the entire student section is doing it, so I dont know what you dont like about it

now, I will admit that after the past 2 years, I start twitching when i hear the song as I automatically associate that with a new set of downs!
 
Fine we can get rid of those as long as we get to keep:

We're a young team
It's a process
Just want to go 1-0 each week
Meet you at the Princeton library
I'm sending this via personal email...

I liked FAMILY and "Keep Chopping".

Please get rid of the 1-0 talk and weird color uniforms. Go back to the 2006 season uniforms.

-Go back to these perfect uniforms instead of the Arena Ball crap.
-The Rutgersssss third down thing is ok.
-Guitar Riff is ok. Just let the band play more to get the crowd going.
-Work on the entrance though.

At least Fleck and his stupid Row your boat crap will be a Rutgers thing lol.
 
Our "relevance" was BUILT on the CHOP. It better not go anywhere.

Keep Choppin

I'm going to go out on a limb and suggest that a stadium filled with yelling, stomping and clapping fans would be harder for our opponents to deal with than a relatively quiet one with half the crowd doing a one-arm wave.

Almost every football team talks about family.
