[bethlehemfan]

That’s because it’s a no-brainer

 

[MGSA99]

It's Schiano vs. The field.

 

[TonyVolt]

It amazes me we have to spend tens of thousands of dollars for a "search firm" when the choice is not only simple and obvious, but there is also overwhelming public support for said choice.

 

[NewJerseyGuy]

The people have spoken.

 

[RU4Real]

The overwhelming support of 300 people who care enough to vote in an nj.com poll.

 

[RUSONIC]

search firm is for plan B. I truly believe Schiano would prefer to go elsewhere but the Tennessee job really F'd him over.

 

[Knight Shift]

The overwhelming support of 300 people who care enough to vote in an nj.com poll.

1124 and increasing. Don't think you can vote twice unless you clear your cache or use separate devices.

 

[SHUSource]

The overwhelming support of 300 people who care enough to vote in an nj.com poll.

Who are probably also NJ.com commenters. This alone would give any reasonable Schiano supporter pause.

 

[OldManRiver]

The overwhelming support of 300 people who care enough to vote in an nj.com poll.

300 of GS's family and friends

 

[miketd1]

I'll bet the average voter in that poll has never even heard of half of the other candidates.

I know I struggle to recognize some of those names and I consider myself as someone who's following the situation fairly closely.

 

[Bamm Bamm Rubble]

They'd rather the misery they're familiar with than the uncertain future. The New Jerseyans lizard brain in a nutshell.

[RU4Real]

That 6.48% of the respondents think that Nunz should get the HC job tells you EVERYTHING you need to know about this sample group.

 

[MADHAT1]

Looks like Ventura Highway search firm hired NJ.com to help
and Hobbs is going to go:

when hiring Ash's replacement ,based on the extensive research NJ.com did for Ventura

 

[Extra Point]

If Kyle Flood was included in the poll he would win.

 

[Extra Point]

I picked Al Golden. Very famous name and knows how to turn programs around and has current network to the NFL.

 

[RUwoz]

Support for Edsall by UCant fans was super high for his second time around too!

 

[brgRC90]

"At least mediocre is better than really bad"

 

[SCILS02]

The fact that Moorhead got any votes tells you all you need to know about the sample group.

 

[sherrane]

The fact that Moorhead got any votes tells you all you need to know about the sample group.

That's better than Nunzio Campanile being in second place. Nunzio appears to have a good future ahead of him, but I can't imagine he would be better than Ash at this point.

 

[ruman]

Literally everyone of Nunzio's and Golden's friends and family are hitting the poll -- only way anybody would choose either of them over GS

 

[rutgersguy1]

Just like political polling name recognition is a big thing and obviously Schiano has that but look beyond that and the fact that NC is #2 on the list or even in the same ballpark vs others there who are more qualified tells you all you need to know about the poll.

All I'd take from this is that yes quite a few people want Schiano but I'd qualify that with that's probably all many of them know and most likely don't pay much attention to the rest of the college landscape.

 

[Yeah Baby]

I like the comment” it’s okay if you don’t want Schiano back but to try and say what he did here was anything less than extraordinary” is not acceptable. Schiano was part of the aolution. Those who trash him are a huge part of the problem. I will take Schiano or someone better. Nothing less.

 

[RU848789]

That 6.48% of the respondents think that Nunz should get the HC job tells you EVERYTHING you need to know about this sample group.

Those people need to be immediately fired from their jobs, whatever they do, even if it's just flipping burgers, kind of like the reply-to-all morons, lol...

[NickRU714]

The overwhelming support of 300 people who care enough to vote in an nj.com poll.

1. Isn’t the general opinion that only “haters” read and comment on nj.com?
If so, then Schiano would actually be the worst selection.

2. I would like to see a list on local NJ.com that listed all fake names. I highly doubt many people recognize most of those names - other than Schiano.

In fact, I would bet Flood/Ash would get votes just on name recognition alone.

 

[Hondo77]

That’s because it’s a no-brainer

You're right about the "no brain" part. How many of those polled even knew who any of the other people were?

 

[bethlehemfan]

You got it!!!

 

[anon_ivydyf0amkzay]

Watch it be someone NOT on that list...

 

[AreYouNUTS]

The fact that Nunzio - no offense meant - is 2nd tells you just a tad about the football IQ of those responding,

 

[brookdale-soda]

Why is PJ Fleck not on this list if we are only choosing candidates that could take us to a championship? the guy can recruit and they are currently undefeated.

 

[rutgersguy1]

Watch it be someone NOT on that list...

Mike Norvell :ThumbsUp

But Schiano hasn’t.

Get Out the Vote!

 

[koleszar]

Negotiations. You have to make it appear as he's not your only candidate and you have other options. So that $88K search firm could save you a couple $100K

 

[NotInRHouse]

Schiano at least should be interviewed if he's interested.

If we go for a G5 flavor of the month over GS when he wanted to be here this board will be in justifiable insurrection.
