everyone looked at drafted players to prove how terrible Gerg was right off the bat.

why is it nuts to look at drafted guys?

greg robinson was awful.  he hired horrible coaches, had no idea what he wanted to do, had no idea how to defend, and inherited really bad linebackers, receivers and QBs

go look at Schiano's roster when he started.  it looks like a page out of a phone book, no one recognizeable.

you guys are trying really hard to avoid being objective about "miraculous" jobs by setting really arbitrary cherry picked markers.  marrone won a bowl in year 2.  "in order to be miraculous one must win a bowl in year 2"

never mind that schiano and marrone had the same record their third year.

schiano sucks, i think he's a bozo.  but my whole point is that people overreact to Gerg.  we had a terrible coach.  we got rid of him.  it doesn't have to be so much more profound than that.

part of the reason i picked schiano is because i thought i've made myself clear that i think he's a ridiculous monkey who is clearly no miracle worker.  but if rutgers going .500 isn't a miracle, then neither is syracuse
