Pernetti Fast Tracks Coach Search
Rutgers AD Tim Pernetti said the search for Rutgers' next head coach is underway and that it's "doable" that Greg Schiano's replacement will be in position by Wednesday's National Signing Day. Pernetti emphasized the importance of maintaining the recruiting class built by Schiano, considered the best incoming class in school history.
"Any AD has a list in his pocket all the time," Pernetti said. "In my mind, we hoped and expected we could keep Schiano in place long term, but I've been ready for this moment since I walked onto this campus."
According to Tom Luicci of the Star-Ledger, names that have emerged include: Steve Addazio of Temple, Mario Cristobal of Florida International, N.Y. Giants O-Line coordinator Pat Flaherty, James Franklin of Vanderbilt, and Notre Dame defensive coordinator Bob Diaco.
