If you want to know what Keli’s thoughts are on the current football coach, see her face at the Schiano rinse and repeat presser. She’s as disgusted as everyone else. Pictures say a thousand words. These images probably say ten thousand.
Keli’s Face at Schiano’s Press Conference

$28 million in all the coaches buyouts will prevent her from doing anything. With the current fiscal state of the University the buyouts are totally unaffordable.
Can you do a screen grab so I don’t have to put myself through listening to that asshat.

Disregard. I found it. Kelis husband is equally befuddled by our moron.
the scary thing is he thinks he’s doing a good job!
Greg was explaining how RU was "getting better - just not as quickly as we like but we are getting better and just have to keep doing it." Greg also spoke elegiac about all the special people and staff making RU special. Same ole Gregorian slant

Folded arms and a serious stare from your boss is not a reaasuring sight. She looks like she doesn’t buy the Schiano BS.
She looks how we all feel. His opening line was he was proud of the team and coaches. She immediately put her head down in disgust. That’s the real imagery. Greggo is delusional. No one wants to hear that in a very winnable game that you lost, especially with the season he’s having.
Hes officially lost the AD.
Lol posted about all the volume posters who are looking for any piece to support their position, including press conference tidbits! And here it is right on cue!
this message board is a very small microcosm and an echo chamber of a few posters who post hundreds of 9000s of times. May or may not be representative of what’s going on inside the athletic department

True but an empty stadium reflects the larger picture.
So we’re all psychoanalysts now ? We have no idea what she thinks of Schiano, let alone from her facial expression. Of course we hope she’s doing everything she can to rid the university of The Grifter but until she does, the only assumption is that she still wants to keep him.
Further, it’s not her decision. She needs financial backing.

The financing (if it occurs) would be from private sources, not through University funds.
To add insult to injury she sits in her home stadium where 50% of the crowd is wearing maize and blue and at times were very vocal. If Schiano continues onward for the 2027 season this will only get worse. Sponsors and donors will dry up and ticket sales will be affected. This is coming to an ugly ending sooner or later in a more painful way.
Maryland and others who have already fired their coaches have a head start on the best possible candidates. If we hire someone who is making $2 million for say $3.5 million, the savings vs Greg at $6 million ipartially funds the buyout. There also is an offset if he gets another job. The same logic applies to his large staff. I would also believe the new coach will require fewer headcount than Gregg.
No doubt she is watching the unraveling in real time. She can see it at the stadium and I’m sure sees it in the revenues.
Nobody wants this BTW. We all know more people not going to the games than are going and it’s frustrating. So many great experiences not being had by Rutgers fans.
Wrong as fck, I posted a whole analysis on how the costs will potentially breakdown. It's very coverable because it won't actually be $28m. That assumes everyone doesn't work over the remainder of their contracts, and all but Greg have clauses that they must be actively trying to find employment.

Everyone wants to make this whole thing so complicated. FIRE his sons and the other useless bootlickers tomorrow. Greg will lose his mind. No way he will continue BAU. He will negotiate a buyout. That’s how you force out Greg and save NJ money.
OMG Schiano's post games are so stale. RU muffs yet another winnable game and he talks about how spechul everybody is. That has nothing to do with 6 years of B1G flops. Stop with the "we'll keep working - we're getting there!"
He was proud we lost to 4-3 team that is actually 3-4?!?!?! Have we sunk that low?
She's in a tough spot. Clearly she has higher expectations and he's not her hire, but the PR noise of RU being in debt and paying fired coaches tens of millions of dollars is killer.
This season was over and a national embarrassment before Labor Day. We all know what she wants to do, but her hands might be tied behind the scenes.

“We’re getting better,” to what end? We’re 2-6.
If he’s talking about being competitive next year, then you have to wonder how many of the guys who “got better” will still be here next year.
We already know that our best player, Duff, won’t be back. Others will leave for a better opportunity.
In this era, “getting better” after a 2-6 start just won’t cut it.

Next Saturday when it’s 70 and sunny in San Diego and I tell her I have 10 hours of college football to watch
I take it negotiations aren’t your thing. The program is in crisis mode. Millions at stake. We are losing recruits. Season ticket renewals will tank. Greg’s sons are leverage. Wake up.
Unless they're going to hire someone who's not currently employed, they have no jump. This is a fallacy perpetuated by watercooler talk and message boards.
The reason they fire coaches during the season isn't to get a jump on the coaching carousel or to get wins. Rather it's to show boosters, advertisers and fans they're not willing to stand for the status quo. This gives all three a visual indication that there's hope for the future.

I feel bad for the long time fans and students. They all deserve a reasonable experience. And unreasonable I mean winning 7-8 games. That’s the most attractive thing about this job. No one has any real expectations other than beating some of the teams we are truly peers with, competing against those we aren’t, and occasionally beating some. The guy that comes in and does this will be a god. Some of our fanbase did a sit in and simped for Schiano, he of a losing record. A coach with actual reasonable accomplishment will live on easy street.
I just watched my son in real time as a RU student go to almost every game and walk away with literally not one great memory. A half vs Michigan in 2023 I believe it was when we hung in for a half? The Washington win probably was the highlight. That is pathetic over 5 seasons.
THIS is why we cannot build a fan base the size of our peers. Of all of Al’s nonsense, when he says ‘Rutgers fans don’t care’, I find it the most offensive and triggering of everything because he doesn’t acknowledge why we are where we are.
I wouldn’t give a dime to Schiano. It’s like investing in a bad company. It’s dumb. I knew he wouldn’t know what to do with it then, and certainly not now. We are here because a small group of vocal sycophants yearning for yesteryear demanded he be hired and we had an AD who was less than engaged. Of course that’s the latest saga.
That’s not her husband next to her. I don’t know who that is.19K views · 35 reactions | Rutgers football coach Greg Schiano speaks after the #ScarletKnights disappointing 28-21 loss to Michigan earlier today. #Rutgers Athletic Director Keli Zinn listens as Schiano says his team (2-6) is getting better. #rfoot

There's already a reduction included in the contract. You're not getting anything else from Greg.
Even by some chance he's here next year, (God help us), his kids are expendable, low-level pawns on this chess board. You're not leveraging anything there because Keli has already asserted herself over Greg in different ways this year. The reduced travel party is only one thing. There are other things that may eventually come out but she's got Greg's spending habits that went unchecked under Hobbs in her crosshairs.
Pat Riley said there comes a time with a long time team when they know your dictionary, expressions, psychological tweaks etc and they stop working. Schiano's "we are working hard and everybody is special" just doesn't mean anything good anymore. The team came out of summer camp looking like they never practiced. He didn't anticipate that UMass coaching had his number and Joe Harasymiak admitted he had an edge there.
Cignetti at Indiana is admitting that "Deception still lives in college football" and Greg is saying "We dont try to fool anybody." Greg could still be a good coach somewhere where thats need a Moses for a culture change. I just do not see him as a B1G head coach with a B1G staff (KC isn't) and B1G players. He might still have some 7 win seasons in him but with too many blowouts sprinkled in. Dennis Glenn admitted there was too much uncertainty around and that sort of thing only resolves with a departure.
