One of the biggest honors in college football is getting another team’s coach fired, and man do I feel honored to be a Rutgers fan right now
Sources: Maryland coach Mike Locksley has been dismissed. Maryland dropped to 2-5 on Saturday after a last-second loss to Rutgers. Locksley is 39-54 overall at Maryland, including his interim stint in 2015. Maryland is on a bye this week.

You gotta feel bad for IU football fans most of them have never experienced a loss during their 1 season as fans

Even with how bad this football team is the students still fill up the entire student section week after week. Alumni, students and NJ residents deserve better

I am tired of Republicans and Democrats in Trenton blaming Rutgers Athletics failures on Rutgers. Blame it on yourselves! 40 years of political cronies being placed the Rutgers BOG and in the athletic dept is the root cause. Mulcahy, Pernetti, Herman, Hobbs all unqualified

There was no world where I ever even remotely considered this outcome. I thought 78-0 was rock bottom. I thought losing to Eastern Michigan at home was rock bottom. I thought losing to Buffalo at home by 30 points was rock bottom. I was wrong. THIS is rock bottom. You cannot, under any circumstances, let Greg Schiano continue to coach this football team. I thought there was real progress for this team over the last few years, but it has been completely undone over the last 13 games. There is simply no light at the end of the tunnel for this football program. Irredeemable.

I guess having vertical alignment means you can still get blown out at home by UMass

In 2021 the excuse was “It’s still early”. In 2022 the excuse was Sean Gleeson. In 2023 the excuse was Gavin Wimsatt. In 2024 the excuse was the injuries. In 2025, the excuse was Robb Smith & funding. It’s 2026… what’s the excuse now?

It’s just lazy and uninformed, and frankly too easy, for people to pick on Rutgers and peg them for last in the conference. Objectively they are not the worst team and will not O-fer in conference play.

Two and a half years ago, Syracuse fans were bragging about their 2024 football recruiting class, with 13 of their commits coming out of the state of New Jersey. Refresh back to present day, and 11 out of those 13 players have since left the program. What a shame.

Boston Celtics G/F Ron Harper Jr. intends to sign a new three-year, $9 million deal to return to the franchise, sources tell ESPN. The Celtics are declining Harper's $2.6M team option, clearing the way for the sides to commit on a longer deal.

Conclusion: Dylan and Ace didn't fail Rutgers, Rutgers failed Dylan and Ace. The athletic department, the coaching staff, the roster, and plain bad luck are all to blame. This was a season that was supposed to be special, but instead ended in unforgettable disaster.
