Longtime Rutgers fans, those who have followed the team prior to the success of 2006 and beyond, have lived through plenty of losing teams. Aside from the early sixties, mid-to-late seventies, a few seasons mixed into the eighties and nineties, current Rutgers football fans have suffered and endured plenty of losing. That’s part of the identity of being a Rutgers fan, like it or not. Greg Schiano is revered by most not for winning championships, but for making Rutgers a consistently decent to good team year over year for less than a decade. 2006 season was an outlier, but Schiano is remembered like a king by a good amount of fans who still hold out hope he will return.
