Greg Schiano (HC Rutgers Scarlet Knights)

Meyer hires with the understanding they put in at least two years before they bail. IIRC, Schiano and Meyer are close buds. It would have to be a truly huge head-coaching offer (e.g., the supposed $10M/year at Oregon) for Schiano to bail in under a year (was hired Dec '15) and for Meyer to be OK with it.

If Schiano stays he had to be all in not concentrating on his next gig.

I have little doubt Meyer and Schiano did a one-off... and if something popped up after year 1.. that was OK

I'm pretty sure it doesn't matter. I'm guessing Malik didn't talk to anyone about going pro before this year but no one is going to stand in his way if the right opportunity arises

I figured players were a different conversation entirely than coaches, you know sine coaches don't get hit and already getting paid(publicly). A player doesn't owe a coach or school anymore years than 3 that are required.

Let's say urban had a foolish convo with an NFL head coach about how he wasn't allowed to leave before two years. what happens if ND comes calling? Or lsu? he's supposed to turn them down based on some handshake before the season?

I hear you there. My comment was based on the one about Malik. I don't expect any coach to sit around if a better opportunity arises. And I don't think Urban will ever have to worry about finding suitable replacements

If He does leave, for a solid HC gig. how will that impact the plethora of Stud DBs in the 2017 recruiting class. that is a pretty big shakeup

We reload on the field and we reload on the sidelines. This is The Ohio State University.

Pure speculation, but I would guess that most recruits have assumed there was not much chance of Schiano being an assistant coach at OSU for four years.

NEVER ASSUME...

Good point. If I assume that, it could lead to trouble.

IIRC, writers have specifically mentioned that Meyer didn't ask that of Schiano when he was hired.

 

[NFBuck]

Just throwing this out there...and I'm sure it already has been somewhere on here...but if Schiano does indeed land another HC gig, one Charlie Strong is out there, and he's a heck of a DC. Any chance Urban and Charlie reunite?

Schiano seems like an odd fit for Oregon, rumors notwithstanding. I'm really hoping that we can get one more year out of him, especially if three of our four DB starters go pro.
