Wow, that is one tough schedule in 2027! With a schedule like that, I think we can all agree that if Greg can manage 2-10 again in 2027 that would actually mean significant progress had been made and he really deserves to stick around until 2028 at least.
Year to year hard to know for sure what kind of schedule you have, at least in the conference. Look how underwhelming and doable this year’s schedule ended up being.
Will Michigan move on from Whittingham. Will UCLA hold on to Chesney? Will NW hold on to Chip Kelly? Will IU lose any of their coordinators to a HC job? Hard to know for sure what teams look like from year to year and that’s without taking into account player movement.

Home games listed first, then away games. Order not yet decided
Schedule came out in January so I'd expect the dates to be out sometime in Jan 2027.
Zero room for error. Must beat Akron, BC, LIU, and MD and then play competitive in the rest.
This was the year the schedule was in our favor. There were 7-9 wins for the taking. 3 gimmes 3 coaches on the hot and 3 new coaching staffs. Michigan State, Maryland, Nebraska, Wisconsin will not always be this down. To not take advantage of this years schedule was criminal.
After the UMASS debacle if team doesn’t come out and destroy Akron then coach 100% officially hasn’t learned a damn thing
The schedule was in our favor in 2024 and 2025 as well. In 2024, no Ohio State, Penn State, Michigan, or Oregon., a bad UCLA team, mediocre Nebraska, mediocre Wisconsin, and an improved but beatable Illinois. In 2025, very winnable games against Iowa, Minnesota , Washington, and Illinois. Not to mention a reeling Penn State, who fired their coach mid season. 2 winning seasons (and winning B1G records). were there for the taking.
Yea. But this was by far the easiest. And was setup for 7-9 wins. I am not sure how kicking the can down the road is going to help. Next year I can only see 3-4 wins. And that is not going to move the needle.
if that is the benchmark to bring him back once again we are doomed. 6 wins min to earn another year and NOT another extension.
Akron??? If Greg learned one lesson this year he won't make the same UMass mistake over again. Especially if he's fighting for his life.
He was fighting for his life this year. Keli didn’t give him a ringing endorsement with that press release. He was as good as gone if she had the financial backing. Very telling that the AD, Greg and his staff are meeting weekly. That’s not a good thing. AD’s are very hands off in season. To have more than 2-3 working meetings in season is very out of the ordinary. The only time an AD meets with coaches in season is to glad hand and network.
All true. Just my opinion. We'll see
p.s. Akron plays UMass next week. If UMass wins they are bowl eligible. Akron is 1-9.

Akron under Moorhead is currently 1-9/0-6 and in the 5 years he's been there 14-43/9-29
If you don't mind, I'll wait for RutgersAl's take. Wait, Al, is that you?
After his PSU OC stint and seeing what he did at Fordham I thought he could be a decent HC. After Miss St less enthusiastic on him.
I think he did solid at Oregon too with Cristobal iirc so he might just be a better OC than HC at this level.
No, just his better looking , long lost,cousinIf you don't mind, I'll wait for RutgersAl's take. Wait, Al, is that you?
He doesn't get an extension short of 8+ wins and a NYD Bowl game. 6 wins buys him until 2028. If he doesn't like those terms he can retire.
I think Zinn's plan is 8 wins or she'll retire him.
Greg isn't going to retire before his contract is up without the buyout money owed. and shouldn't be expected to accept being told to leave without the money he's owed.
Very few of us would allow our employer to send us packing and keep the money they are legally obligated to pay us.
