Schiano close to deal with Rutgers

[ShoalCreekVol]

I wish Jarrett the best wherever he ends up. What's that they say when they're closing the bar? You don't have to go home, you just can't stay here.

I hope he will enjoy being on a Rutgers team that will probably be 1-11 or 2-10 in 2020

I guess JG will be heading to Rutgers after Tennessee's bowl game

The new coach will be fixing a wreck, bringing in a senior transfer makes 0 sense. They won't be competitive so may as well throw a younger guy in the frying pan.

Why does some assume JG will transfer?

Why does some assume JG will transfer?

I think it’s wishful thinking

 

[ABINGDON VOL FAN]

Hopefully Sh*tiano turns down Rutgers and Butch Jones gets hired

Sh*tiano would be a fool. Poor Butch, cannot get a break and poor UT. We cannot get away from the Champion of Life Sob’s buyout.

Tweeted “My coach!” when Schiano was announced.
Greg Schiano Was First Coach To Offer Tennessee Vols QB Jarrett Guarantano

Good! Bye Bye JG ! Best of luck to you at Rutgers.

 

[ShoalCreekVol]

Why does some assume JG will transfer?

Combination. Part hope he moves on. Also part recognizing that we need to be able to move on next year as well.

There's also the fact that Jarrett has taken steps to make sure that door is open for him. For example, choosing not to take grad classes at UT.

I think it's pretty much a sure bet that JG will graduate transfer out of Tennessee after the season and he probably will want to play for Greg Schiano at Rutgers from what he said on that tweet

 

[secking]

Could come as soon as this week per footballcoachscoop….. This was going to happen ever since he turned down the DC job with New England. You may not like him but he is a decent coach, far better than BJ, who nobody wants.

FSU is throwing their hat in the ring for Schiano.

Hopefully Butch Jones gets hired by Rutgers and JG can go play QB for him

That makes sense and it would be best for all involved.

 

[Tennesseefan2019]

According to Football Scoop the 14 person Rutgers Board of Governors will vote on the hiring of Greg Sh*tiano as head football coach and he could be announced as head coach of Rutgers later this week

Guarantano isn't leaving for one year at a rebuilding from the septic tank Rutgers when he could be (at worst) the #2 QB on what may well be a solid '20 Vols team. If he has any NFL aspirations at all, Queens College is not the place to find them. Knoxville? Maybe.

And it wouldn't hurt for us to have that depth next year, as we already know Maurer will jump into a woodchipper if he thinks if will get one more yard. HB is legit, but he'll likely need a year to come up to SEC speed. Depth at QB is a nice problem to have in November. Just ask Saban.

I've had my issues with JG, but he came off the bench to win the UK game. That, and he's taken more beatings over the last two seasons than the long list of Mike Tyson's opponents over the years. Talent might be limited, but that kid has the heart of a lion. I'd rather have him on our roster than not, given where we are right now.

I think he stays, as he should.

Go Vols.

 

[VOL_Lyfe]

He guided Rutgers to three bowl games I believe.

Wasnt that before they made the incredibly intelligent decision to join the Big 10?

I'll take that "sure bet" and say there is no chance that JG transfers to Rutgers.

It actually was an extraordinary intelligent move to leave the dying Big East for the Big 10, regardless of what their record is.

Don’t hire Greg Schiano as Rutgers’ next football coach, state’s top victims advocacy group says

I wonder if there will be a protest?

Talent is absolutely NOT the issue. He's got as much physical talent as any other QB in the SEC. The problem is that he puts too much pressure on himself and just locks up mentally. The negative plays eat at him and he can't let it go. Having time on the bench and not being "the guy" has helped him a lot. If he can ever get over those mental hurdles, then the sky is the limit. There's a reason Urban wanted him really bad at OSU.

 

[MaTaLa]

Rutgers job much tougher now that they are in B10.

And no Ray Rice onboard
