Message: [QUOTE="NJCuse97, post: 3124180, member: 5058"] There is a lot to that and not the least of which I'm confident is Schiano is from a well to do area/town/high school background. I would not be surprised if that wasn't cause for strife as he walks into some severely disadvantaged school districts and asks them to step up and represent. Heck, he went to Bucknell, which is also a pretty well to do small private University. That will matter to some. The thing about that background is that it overlaps with a lot of NJ football royalty. Greg Toal raised his family in the same town and was even OC at Schiano's HS alma mater. The entire Granatell family coached there too, even while he was there, as well as sending a kid or two of their own (Our own Krautman brothers are from there). [URL unfurl="true"]http://donboscofootball.com/team/facilities/[/URL] Phil Sims sent his son Chris to Ramapo to play for Toal. Former Schiano QB Mike Teel is the current HC at Don Bosco (also from that same three town district of NJ known as the "FLOW" area). Campanile's older brother is currently the HC at Bergen Catholic. He played at Paramus Catholic and coached at Seton Hall Prep. Point being, he's got the North Jersey Super Conference covered.

Not sure if his Ped State lineage hurts him there. He also has Florida connections from his days at Miami as well as TB, but the latter may not have much luster. [/QUOTE]
