Rutgers head coach Greg Schiano envisioned the 2006 magical season “On the Banks” from the first day he became the leader of the Scarlet Knights on Dec. 1, 2000.He said then “We're going to win at Rutgers and we're going to do it the right way.”

According to Rutgers, Schiano's impact as head coach is evidenced in all aspects of the Rutgers football program. Schiano and his staff have continued to upgrade the level of talent by recruiting student-athletes with outstanding athleticism and great character, all part of the building process that continues to result in on-field success.

Schiano, who grew up in Wyckoff, New Jersey and graduated from Ramapo High School, is the 27th head coach of Rutgers' Scarlet Knights, the nation's oldest college football program. According to Rutgers media sources, on taking the job Schiano said: "This program will be built on a rock foundation. It will take longer than building it on stilts, but when it's built, it will be built forever. This is where I started; this is where I was striving to get back to. I'm thrilled to be here. It's time."

Success appears to be part of Schiano's career. When he was the defensive coordinator at Miami (1999-2000), the Hurricanes posted a 20-5 record, including an 11-1 record, the No. 2 national ranking and the Sugar Bowl championship in 2000. During his tenure there, the Hurricanes boasted one of the top scoring defenses in the nation and were the stingiest defensive squad in the BIG EAST Conference.
