Greg Schiano Program Quotations

I am humbled and appreciative of the support shown by the leadership of Rutgers University. We will continue to build Rutgers into a championship-caliber football program that will serve as a source of great pride for our university and the state of New Jersey.

If any team should have no issues and go out and play their best football, it's us. We're building a program here. That's a challenge that has to be overcome. I didn't like the idea two years ago. But I don't think our kids think, 'Oh, that's a I-AA team.' I think they think it's just another game.

I think this class is really going to help this program take the next step. We wanted to recruit the 'State of Rutgers' and we feel we had success with that. There are a lot of winners in this class. This is a very well balanced, well-rounded class.

Right now, with where we are with this program ... we still have a lot of things that are out there on the table for us. One of them is to secure a bowl bid and play good football.

Yeah, he is the number one going in. Mike has more experience. Mike's been around the program now for two years. And I think has a better understanding of our entire scheme.

This is not a one-year stint; they laid the foundation for our football program to move forward. My biggest disappointment is for those guys because I wanted them to complete the experience, to be a bowl champion, not just a bowl participant. It's something that hasn't been done around here for 27 years. We'll be back.
