Greg Schiano won’t survive this embarrassing Rutgers loss without a miracle | Politi
This was the worst loss in Greg Schiano's 18 years at Rutgers, and it likely will cost the head coach his job.
Greg Schiano is likely to face dismissal following Rutgers' devastating 37-21 loss to UMass, a performance that severely undermines any hope of retaining his position for another season. After the game, Schiano's optimism was quickly dashed as the Rutgers officials acknowledged the severity of the defeat, which surpassed the failures of his past coaches and the expectations set by athletic director Keli Zinn.
With Schiano's financial obligations totaling $18.5 million and the prospect of a costly buyout, the financial burden on Rutgers is substantial. Despite Schiano's attempts to deflect blame onto the coaching staff, the loss highlights the team's inability to compete against top Big Ten rivals, raising doubts about his ability to turn the program around.
