Schiano’s Tough Lesson After UMass Loss | Rutgers Scarlet News

Rutgers football’s shocking loss to UMass — a team with a 16-game losing streak — has turned the program into a national punchline, forcing head coach Greg Schiano to take full blame. Reliving his own 2004 humiliation after a loss to New Hampshire, Schiano vows this time won’t be the same, especially as social media amplifies the pain for today’s athletes. He’s not on social media himself, but he knows the pressure — and he’s using it as motivation. His message to the team? Don’t let embarrassment define them — channel it into grit. The focus now shifts to Boston College, where Schiano says they’ll “chop” their way back to respect, proving they can rise from this stumble.
