The Blue Board

Penn State fans are pretty sure he doesn't want to go to the NFL, and he is staying at Penn State.

He wants to eventually go to the NFL, but not now and he won't go to a bad team without a QB.

Like we are of Hoke?

I think there's a much stronger chance he leaves starting next year, but it's not out of the question this year. He knows if he leaves this year, a whole lot of guys will transfer and the recruits will be lost, leaving the program even worse off than we imagined. Now, that doesn't mean he won't go, but it will definitely cause a bit more hesitation (after this offseason, the transfer rules are finally done, so that worry isn't there. I'm not naive enough to think that ultimately keeps him, but I do think he considers that factor.

If I had to guess, he would only consider a job with a pretty good QB (SD and Chi are the potential ones this year). He might not want to move his son (has a very rare disease) twice in a year, but if the right opportunity presented itself, he'd certainly consider. He will probably be an NFL head coach in a few years though if he continues to perform at a high level considering the circumstances.

He's always coached pro style QB's, so I wouldn't think Carolina would be terribly attractive. Dallas would be, but I think Jerry sticks with Garrett for one more chance. Cousins or Smith are intriguing, but we have no idea where they'll land and they won't be traded till closer to the draft most likely, when all the jobs will probably be filled already.

Obviously he could accept any job knowing he could trade for one of them, but trades aren't terribly easy in the NFL. You also forgot Flynn as an option as well.

No earth shattering news here IMO

Coach A runs a high school offense that will not work in the NFL and is not a NFL guy
Coach B comes from the NFL and is not currently looking for a job because he got busted being a slimy cheating scum bag

You mean, it is working so far this year. Ask Mike Vick how well it has worked for him over his career...the "WIld cat" worked for a season as well...

These gimmicky offenses like "Wild Cat" and the Spread option are not going to work for long in the NFL. Give DC an off season to prepare for it and it will be non existent. Spread option will sail off into the sunset like the Wild cat did

Griffin is already paying the price for running the read option. He's getting killed. This thing just cannot be run multiple years with a franchise QB.

I wonder if Penn State and Tampa Bay would just agree to trade BOB for Schiano straight up? Penn State fans probably wouldn't like it, but Schiano was always rumored to be waiting for the PSU job, and Bucs fans clearly weren't thrilled with how the season ended.

Yes we noticed this yesterday.

As a Rutgers follower, you should know Rutgers has five bowl wins in their history....all by Schiano. They've won 9 games eight times in their history, and he has 3 of them (along with his players doing it again this year). Rutgers highest ranking ever? #12 in 2006.

They had won 27 games total in the EIGHT years before he got there. They've now won 65 games in the last eight years.

Put some perspective on it....Schiano does not suck as a coach. If he did, Rutgers would have continued to suck when he was the coach, and 1978 would still be their only bowl appearance.
