What exactly was his job? I know the title but what did it mean? He didn’t actually coach a position right?

Sutter just got a Domer offer
Better get used to this.

Now that we’re attracting more talented players, we’re competing with stronger programs. Yet we’re landing our best class in decades. You always win some and lose some, just from a different pool. Getting too concerned with these offers is like fretting over losing a CFP game instead of losing the Mayo Bowl. We’re movin’ on up!

not concerned, just reporting the news (it's a big offer after all). so much better to be in dogfights with top programs than MAC-level programs

Thomann is the highest priority guy for me on the offensive line for the probable-to-commit (Fors, Thomann, Riordan, Balangayai) because he's the only guy that makes sense to play tackle.

Also, would love to know if the staff is able to become a serious player for any of the other tackle offers, like Gregory Patrick (West Michigan), Mboupa (Chicago), Pritchard (NJ).

Balanganayi is being recruited to play defensive line. We won’t be getting Mboupa

Really impressed with what Schiano is doing at Rutgers. Had the 34th best class last year with a lot of 400-700th ranked prospects, now has two 2026 commits ranked in the top-225. He's also pumping out wins the last two years while being ravaged with injuries and under the spell of Kaliakmanis.


Most of the P4 coaches are spending more money on retaining transfers instead of recruiting them. It's possible that Schiano is zagging and spending more on preps last year and this year to raise his program's floor.
That timeout, tho… 😉
