Rutgers coach Greg Schiano on wishing he had never left, and why he'll end his career at Rutgers
Rutgers coach Greg Schiano at the start of this interview turns down the chance to hear Doug Lesmerises' record prediction for Rutgers in 2024 -- but Doug sneaks it in at the end anyway.
Along the way, Schiano discusses:
• Rutgers' recent recruiting success
• Why he didn't string out the QB competition longer
• His plans to end his career at Rutgers
• Why he wishes he never had left Rutgers to begin with
And much more. Thanks for joining Kings of the North.

    Yeah Finebaum should cram it! Penn State has been really consistent. Now i can understand the frustration from the fanbase especially the last couple years but it's gonna take 3-4 more years of that frustration before you think about canning Franklin. I know it's a different situation but firing Franklin would be similar to when Nebraska fired Pellini though i understand there were other issues there.

    As Oregon's Bo Nix (former Auburn QB) stated "the SEC has an unhealthy obsession with college football." However, Nix and Auburn were completely shocked at how large and loud Penn State's Beaver Stadium was during the Whiteout Game. Auburn thought they were going to beat Penn State twice, which was due to Southern arrogance in the SEC on a national stage. The Big 10 Conference is a national and international conference due to their AAU status, larger student enrollments (undergrad/graduate), massive athletic departments, and having representation in Washington DC for Research and Development from the Military Industrial Complex. Remember, University of Chicago and John Hopkins are two unofficial members of the Big 10 Conference as well.
