RU is in a different position now than the last time we entered a legit conference. Back then we didnt have the facilities and the recruiting game was different then. A staff with national or at least heavy B1G recruiting ties will be much better positioned to do well now. F NJ.... selling out of state kids on RU will be easier.
Well our NJ recruiting in unlikely to get much worse, so there is that. We'll see. Ash obviously has a plan for what he wants to do, what we don't know is how he'll adjust when certain parts don't work out as expected, and certain parts always don't work out.
This is funny because it seems like the NJ kids are going to the Midwest. Bring the Midwest to NJ. Let's try a different approach
Panagos is a ball of enthusiasm and wants his players to play hard. This clown was micked up for 5 minutes and all he did was try to joke around. Maybe he is trying to be a comedian in his next gig! He certainly has no football communication skills.
Definitely a lot of variables and we're taking some chances no doubt. I know it's much more exception rather than rule but what was Schellenberger's ties to Miami when he went there? What are James Franklin's ties to NJ?

Do you work for the FBI or CIA? Considering you were able to deduce so much from one 5-minute clip...

This staff is getting nice reviews. I just want the best coaches, whether they're majority black, white, red, blue, green or purple.
Hopefully we can become a destination power 5 outpost for Florida, Texas and Midwest recruits. NJ will take care of itself if we put a fun/exciting/competitive product on the field.
Yup because in those other states kids grow up wanting to play for the 'ol State U unlike NJ kids who are desperate to leave.
I get what you're trying to say but don't you think this is a bit silly. By the way Michigan was a very good team this year. Let's not go overboard and start acting like jersey players don't turn out good or we should just not recruit them. We still need to establish a strong recruiting base in our home state to become a successful program long term. This has become one of the new bandwagon ideas that makes little sense and makes our fan base seem petty because we aren't landing our top home state recruits. I am confident Ash will start getting some of these.
Penn St and Miami are MUCH easier places to recruit at. Franklin is a dynamic recruiter and Penn St has decades of success always recruited NJ well. And any Coach with a pulse can recruit at Miami, Schnelly got the ball rolling, Tremendous coach.
Sorry, I trust Ash, i don't trust you and your "expertise" in college football.
Plan A - Recruit top talent in NJ with a coaching staff full of P5 coaching experience.
Plan B - Recruit top talent outside of NJ with a coaching staff full of P5 coaching experience.
I'm good with this.
GO RU

must have missed the end. the guys is intense..doesn't mean shit though cause none of us are coaches or know anything about these guys. Trust in our HC.... he hasn't given you a single reason not to.
True, but when Schnellenberger went there it was an absolute wasteland with no history of winning.

Funny how you guys think these coaches don't know NJ. It's not like every school in the country doesn't recruit here. It's not as if they are checking out Rivals to see what schools they need to visit.
Doesn't Mich have 3 if you count S&C? And OSU has 4 if you count GAs. So RU is behind both right now no matter how you cut it, and Ash is not Meyer or Harbaugh, and he said most.
Don't care if we win with a roster comprised of kids from Jersey, Florida, Iowa, Ohio, or Alaska.
As long as they win.
Don't get me wrong, I'd love for R kids to stay and protect R house. But if you think about it, our best team was headlined by kids from NY and FL.

Thanks Coach BlockR, I know you spent years coaching under Beitima and Urban Meyer....who is your "Overwhelming" DC Hire !
I did a quick search for b1G programs but all teams don't provide pics of coaches. I was looking at position coaches but if you count S&C coaches we are up to 2. Since we haven't hired GA's it's just another example of this board complaining about something before it even happens.
It has pretty much happened. Isn't only one position open? It's not necessarily a problem, but it is pretty obvious when you take a look at the staff. In a perfect world it wouldn't matter but I expect it matters some.
As I said I hope the GAs change things a bit.
There is no way some of you can care so much about every hire. I think some of you are just negative complainers but I truly believe we have a bunch of posters that do this with an agenda. Someone doesn't like RU or NJ or whatever so you just come on this board and make fools of yourselves. It's pathetic really.
I come here for news and to get pumped for next season only to find around 10 losers acting like idiots in every thread. You know who you are. What's best is some of you are dumb enough to now attack me for saying this which makes my point justified. Have at it losers.

I don't get all the love for Panagos. As a recruiter he was above average but the D-line was probably the most underperforming unit on the team the last two years. No discipline caused too many open lanes and the tackling was atrocious.
Or Gregs staff until AFTER we turned the corner in 2005-2006? And even that wasn't total dominance until Hafley and Angelichio arrived.
No one position coach is left. You mentioned GA's whichever heave yet to hire. You pointed to entire staffs with 3 and 4 respectively. We have 2 with a position coach and entire support staff still to be hired.
Staff diversity is about as important as how many waterfalls are in the locker room to recruits.
Survey after survey, the most important factors to a recruit are 1.) can this staff get me to the NFL, 2.) does this team play against competition that will prepare me for the NFL & 3.) do the systems run adequately prepare me for the NFL.

A little research and I hope he does well for us but what exactly makes this a good hire? Iowa st ranked 87 in rush defense behind us at 86. Gave up 186.6 yards per game.
Don't hold back. Tell us how you really feel. It isn't healthy to bottle up your feelings.
Because you to look at the totality of a team. Our D sucked..doesn't that mean Panagos does? I'm still learning about this hire but Ash hired him for a reason. Did you guys think we were gonna hire a staff full of Broyles award winners and national recruiters of the year? One thing I will say. The national media seems to continuously comment on how good these hires are. That has NEVER happened in the past here.
I have mentioned in previous posts that we need a HC and staff that the HS coaches respect rather than like. We need a staff that puts pressure on the HS coaches rather than coddles them. Sometimes to get this effect you need to bring in outsiders - it's simple psychology, people often times treat the ones they know and the people that are nicest to them like shit, while they treat those that they do not know but are in positions of power like Gods.
