What about the Navy coach as head coach?

[Captain Hogleg]

Whatever. It still did what I said it did. Get the right coach that can recruit to it. Flood isn't that guy.

If Rutgers hired Coach Ken - we'd see a dramatic upgrade in preparedness and in game coaching. I think if he were to get a job, at Rutgers, you'd see him adjust the option attack and run it from a spread formation. It would be more like Oregon under Chip Kelly. I'd be excited to have him for a coach. He's a winner with the pedigree of education and discipline. We'd be lucky to get him as a coach.

Julie's priority should be the best at any offense- not spread just because. If you have proven to coach a great pro set or option or as a great defensive mind, you should still be in consideration.

I just worry about all these silly qualifications- I want someone who has shown they can recruit, they can coach, they can manage a program well- not that they excel in some smaller category. Saying we want only spread or only a coach with NJ ties or only one with p5 HC experience- all of which I have seen here before, are absurd.

The best team in the Northeast this year is one of Pitt (former MSU DC), Temple (former Giants line coach) or Navy (HC who has run the option since 2008). All of whom doing a much better job than Franklin, a spread guy, former p5 HC who is from just across the NJ border that has more resources than those 3 combined...

FWIW -- Saw Schiano today in Sarasota restaurant. Damn, he looks young! 2 yrs w/ no pressure @ $3.5 million per year served him well! Ecept for the grey at the temples, could pass for 42 instead of 52.

He is 49

What the hell, we've been recruiting on the level of Army lately. (Athletically, not academically). It might work.
