Saturday’s contest between the Ohio State Buckeyes and Rutgers Scarlet Knights features a homecoming for the second year in a row. A season ago, Chris Ash returned to Columbus where he served as defensive coordinator for the National Champion Buckeyes just two seasons earlier. This weekend, Greg Schiano makes his much more anticipated return to Piscataway as Ohio State’s defensive coordinator, having replaced Chris Ash in the role when Ash left to take the head job at RU.
It’s uncertain how Rutgers will choose to honor Schiano, but common sense would indicate they will in some way. Perhaps a video tribute or a simple “thank you” announcement before kickoff detailing the bowl championships, number of players he sent to the NFL, or other accomplishments will prove to be the simple answer.
