Rutgers Greg Schiano remains undecided on quarterback situation
02.10.11
Upon further examine, Rutgers coach Greg Schiano said he needs to take still another look at the match tape and consult with offensive coordinator Frank Cignetti before making a decree on his starting quarter next week against Pittsburgh.
True freshman quarterback Gary Nova relieved struggling starter Chas Dodd and rallied the Scarlet Knights from a 10-stress fourth-quarter deficit to a hard-fought 19-16 facsimile overtime victory at Syracuse on Saturday in a gutsy demeanour that has sparked a potential quarterback controversy.
``I'm going to have to eye more of it and sit down with Frank,'' Schiano said this morning on a colloquium call with reporters. ``We haven't met as a staff. I'm not ready to frame any comments.
``This isn't going to be a knee-jerk reaction. It's something we're universal to have to look at and make sure we're calculated in what we're doing. We're usual to talk it through and do what we think is best.''
Nova, a former Don Bosco Prep celebrity, completed 14 of 24 passes for 122 yards and a touchdown. He made several clever plays on the run while avoiding a pass rush that sacked him four times.
