Report: Rutgers Head Coach Greg Schiano a candidate for Bucs

PrintAnother name just surfaced in the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' coaching search, this time floated by 620 WDAE via Rick Stroud, and later reported by Jason La Canfora: Rutgers head coach Greg Schiano. As I've been saying for the past week, I wouldn't be surprised if the Bucs pulled another shocking name out of their hat, and if 620 WDAE is correct they certainly did.
Greg Schiano is an interesting name, to say the least. He took over a faltering Rutgers football team in 2001, a team that hadn't been to a bowl game since 1978. Over the next 11 years he re-built that program, took it to six bowl games winning five of those. While Schiano's overall record of 68-67 wouldn't instill a lot of confidence, seen in the context of the program he took over it's pretty impressive.
His previous experience came on the defensive side of the ball, most notably as the defensive coordinator of the Miami Hurricanes in 1999 and 2000. He was also an assistant for the Chicago Bears from 1996 through 1998, so he does at least have some NFL experience.
As always with college coaches, though, the question is whether he won games because of coaching or recruiting. The Big East hasn't exactly been a conference of powerhouses, so his opposition hasn't been stellar. Still, he has done a good job at Rutgers, and he has impressed people around the NFL. According to Peter King, at least, who notes that Bill Belichick thinks Schiano "could be a very good pro coach".
So far this is little more than a rumor, but it's another name that can be added to the list.

Is he an offensive or defensive coach?

High Risk/High Reward Avenue to tread
Only 3 years in the NFL, last in 1998 as a DB coach for the Bears. Could he be the next Harbaugh? Or the next Petrino or Saban? Just me, but I’d rather have an NFL Coordinator.
I think that he's a better hire than Sherman.
He might have a bright, long term future in front of him. I would rather roll the dice with him than an old turd like Sherman.
I just hope that he is not a player’s coach. We need a guy who demands respect.

Going from Rutgers to a NFL head coach
is a massive jump, similar to Raheem. Not sure I’m a fan of this move.
Interesting choice but the Big East has been pathetic
and Rutgers is right in the middle of a recruiting hot bed. I don’t really think this guy is an upgrade to any other candidates. I’m now pulling for Chudzinski and/or Zimmer ideally. The Bucs gear at Citrus Park mall is basically all 50% off. The Bucs have lost this town!
Good luck Rah. Bring us Mo Claiborne and replace Geno, Quincy, and Sean Jones!
No, it's because Nike is coming to town next year.

And yes I'm well aware Nike is taking over
but still there is no reason I should be able to buy $28 t-shirts for only $10 with current players names. Williams, Benn, Freeman, Talib, and Blount all had apparel for dirt cheap. Not like it was Joey Galloway, Cadillac Williams, Barrett Ruud or Derrick Brooks memorabilia on sale.
Good luck Rah. Bring us Mo Claiborne and replace Geno, Quincy, and Sean Jones!
what?!..
So soon? Damn I think he is better than Sherman but…. I want an offensive guy like Chud or Kelly. The league has changed. Decent D with a great O is the way to roll instead of Decent O with powerhouse D.
GO NOLES!!! SCALP EM!
What is wrong? Green Bay, New Orleans, New England can win with an average D and good O.
These teams do not just win but they dominate the league. If you have a stout D that is fine as long as you can score points. Look at Carolina for example. Beast O but putrid D but if you put up 35+ you most likely will win.
GO NOLES!!! SCALP EM!
We're 4 years behind development and dont have the tools for a breakout O.
Copycat league where first to the prize wins (see D in late 90’s early 00’s and O in mid to late 00’s). We wont outscore GB, NO, NE etc, but give me a shut down D and a league average O and youre going places. High powered O works great, but doesn’t bring home the bacon as much as D does.
As you can always expect come from behind victory is when you least expect it.
Passable offense with good/great D can go far in the league.
Look at staying power. Who has been more dominant the last 10 years, big D or big O? Steelers, Ravens, Bucs (until 03) etc have been consistent. High powered O? No consistency.
As you can always expect come from behind victory is when you least expect it.
Then you could flip that and say more recent it has been New Orleans, Green Bay, New England, Colts,
GO NOLES!!! SCALP EM!
Colts won with a hot D, not Peyton. GB/NO won when their D was outperforming everyone.
Don’t foret, defense won the Saints the SB, D got GB to the big game last year, the Colts with their great O have won 1 SB and it was the year their D steped up.
As you can always expect come from behind victory is when you least expect it.
I did not say putrid D I said power O and average D. Average D's can play above avearge all the time but those teams O is what got them there imo
GO NOLES!!! SCALP EM!
Right now I would settle...
for a power lawnmower. We remain a re-building project. Ugh.
by Cracker Ball on Jan 26, 2012 10:48 AM EST up reply actions
It is much harder to create an offense...
that must score 35 points to win a game.
Seems easier to build a DEF that gives up 17-20 and you only have to score 25 to win. 3 freak plays (2 muffed returns and a shanked 35 yd. FG) and we would be looking at a SF-BAL Superbowl – 2 defensive minded teams.

Boom.
Playing catch up is hard. We cant outscore the top5 teams in the league right now. Its not happening in an offense v. offense game. We’re too far behind. By the time we got the receivers and scheme it would be 2-3 years from now before it clicked and the league would have moved on.
As you can always expect come from behind victory is when you least expect it.
Now schefter reports Sherman is in Miami to work out a deal to be the
Dolphins head coach.
Offensive Coordinator
apologies for the mistake.
Remember Parcells and Kelly.
Lets not get too excited until its done.
As you can always expect come from behind victory is when you least expect it.
Looking at a Kelly or Schiano
coming in from the college ranks brings up the question- would a Del Rio, Sherman or some other experienced head coach even consider coming in as a coordinator? If these guys really love football, want to coach and aren’t hung up on titles or power it might be a really good fit to couple Schiano with some veteran coordinators as a team to rebuild the Bucs. Since Schiano is considered strong on defense, pairing him with a Sherman or Schottzy for that matter as OC would be plausible. I love to see Chudz and him come in together but Carolina likely wouldn’t allow the lateral move.
I’m not necessarily for or against on this. It’s worth a look though. It’s obvious from the flirtation with Kelly that they are looking at college coaches pretty seriously. If they had “fallen” for one of the veteran coaches I think they would have hired one already. I’m not certain the Bucs want to go with the safe choice. I think they may want to really shake things up at One Buc this time.
What has Schiano done to even be qualified for this position?
We should’ve kept Rah and got him some real coordinators. This would’ve been the last year of his contract. Bucs “management” always claimed they wanted to emulate the Steeler and Packer way. The Steelers stick behind their coaches through thick and thin. This is what makes buying into the Steeler way so easy, players and coaches alike (Arians not included) know that ownership has their backs. Here there is nothing at all to demonstrate management has anyone’s back, if anything it’s quite the opposite.
Good luck Rah. Bring us Mo Claiborne and replace Geno, Quincy, and Sean Jones!
Well if we go 3-13 realistically how many years does this Schiano have to turn things around?
I just have my doubts on this. Western NY/PA is a recruiting hotbed, Rutgers has basically always been mediocre. I don’t get it.
Good luck Rah. Bring us Mo Claiborne and replace Geno, Quincy, and Sean Jones!
This guy is catching a break

Big fan of Schiano
As a Jersey resident, I’ve had the opportunity to watch a lot of Rutgers games. He’s a coach that everyone has rallied around; his players love him and respect him. Great football knowledge and he’s just a winner.
Follow me @worldwidemaldo.
They won the freaking pinstripe bowl....
Yes it is a bowl victory, but in my mind I want a coach that dominates his conference. Like Chip Kelly in Oregon, Les Miles, even Ferentz from Iowa I’d be more open to. I’m going to need some convincing to really get behind this dude.
Good luck Rah. Bring us Mo Claiborne and replace Geno, Quincy, and Sean Jones!
Style over substance for you.
I’ll take substance. Dominating conference is more recruiting than coaching. Give me a bucnh of 5 star athletes and I probably win 7 games a year in soem conferences. Doing more with less is impressive.
As you can always expect come from behind victory is when you least expect it.
I mean he didn't even win the Big East frequently
come on just because you accept middle of the pack mediocrity doesn’t mean you have to push it on others.
Good luck Rah. Bring us Mo Claiborne and replace Geno, Quincy, and Sean Jones!
Have to keep in mind where that program came from
He took a program that hadn’t been to a bowl game since 1978 and took it to six, winning five of them. That’s pretty impressive.
Don't get me wrong I prefer Schiano to Sherman
but not exactly excited about the move. Still think Chud or Zimmer would’ve been better options.
Good luck Rah. Bring us Mo Claiborne and replace Geno, Quincy, and Sean Jones!
Different game with different dynamics.
Nick Saban didnt make a good NFL coach. Just because he is the top coach in top conference means nothing. Petrino proved the same thing.
As you can always expect come from behind victory is when you least expect it.
I'm more for Zimmer or Chudzinski
I don’t see why you are trying to pin that I want a college coach from the SEC?
Good luck Rah. Bring us Mo Claiborne and replace Geno, Quincy, and Sean Jones!
I wanted some Zimmer press conf.
He would have told everyone who sucks and who does not suck. Imagine Dom letting players he wanted to keep walk..
Best conference so must have best coaches, right?
As you can always expect come from behind victory is when you least expect it.
I like it
He is guy who in college gets the most out of his players, o kenny britt had no off field issues under him

Kenny Britt also was at least smart enough to get drafted
before becoming a bad apple. Now that he’s rich he can basically afford to do whatever he wants.
Good luck Rah. Bring us Mo Claiborne and replace Geno, Quincy, and Sean Jones!
I may write an article on this, but lets hit a few points
Bucs fans seem to want an aggressive, in your face coach and style. Schiano is not that guy. He’s defensive minded, conservative etc. He’s more Dungy than Chip Kelly. He won’t be chest bumping or unleasing a dynamic, creative system.
If you want the Kelly lifestyle, you’ll be disappointed, but thats not to say Schiano (or any mild mannered, conservative coach) isn’t a good fit. Just dont be surprised if its run the ball and defense.
As you can always expect come from behind victory is when you least expect it.
Defensive minded coach, hell take claiborne
by Carlitin1988 on Jan 26, 2012 10:37 AM EST via Android app up reply actions
He's much more conservative than Kelly
worked under Dave Wannstedt and uses similar philosophies. For what it’s worth, Bell Bellicheck gave him a heavy recommendation to the Glaziers for the job.
Thanks ProFootballTalk!
Yea, he is conservative, which isnt a bad thing.
As you can always expect come from behind victory is when you least expect it.
I cut out all the garbage Florio blabber
and only included the important parts. Amazing how you can cut down 5 of his paragraphs into 1 or 2 sentences of substance.
Yes run the ball and defesne sigh more of the same borning play. Like I said the league has changed and we need to change too imo
GO NOLES!!! SCALP EM!
Yeah because our defense is good enough to utilize our "punishing" ground game...
Mediocre Mark please don’t go through with this.
Good luck Rah. Bring us Mo Claiborne and replace Geno, Quincy, and Sean Jones!
What kind of philosophies does this Schiano specialize in?
I really don’t know much about him, but growing up in Pennsylvania we always looked at Rutgers as a joke.
Good luck Rah. Bring us Mo Claiborne and replace Geno, Quincy, and Sean Jones!
Schiano turned that program around
It’s a legitimate contender now, not a joke.
Can’t say anything about his philosophies though.
Legitimate contender?
Jimbo Fisher turned FSU from mediocre to a legitimate contender, Rutgers is no legitimate contender. The Pinstripe Bowl, really?
I do like what he did in Miami those two years. Maybe after his presser I’ll be more open but I have lots of questions about this hire.
Good luck Rah. Bring us Mo Claiborne and replace Geno, Quincy, and Sean Jones!
Well I give you a Big East contender but that isn't saying much
Good luck Rah. Bring us Mo Claiborne and replace Geno, Quincy, and Sean Jones!
He's in the Big East
What more do you want? He’s not going to be dominating the SEC with the kind of talent he can pull there.
I'd rather he prove himself in a more decorated conference
is what I’m saying. His conference record is pathetic in a pathetic conference.
Good luck Rah. Bring us Mo Claiborne and replace Geno, Quincy, and Sean Jones!
Sabans record was good, how did he pan out in NFL?
Going 8-0 in SEC doesnt mean 16-0 in NFL. Opposite is also true.
As you can always expect come from behind victory is when you least expect it.
Acc cracking on the big east in football
Now that is funny stuff.
Did you miss the orange bowl?

Shh the Bucs do not want Jimbo. He needs to stay at FSU especially with NSD less than 1 week away lol
GO NOLES!!! SCALP EM!
Oh lets not be too greedy!
I’m also a Nole fan and love the recruiting class we’ve already locked up. Hopefully Edwards stays with us, even without him Jimbo has done an excellent job.
Good luck Rah. Bring us Mo Claiborne and replace Geno, Quincy, and Sean Jones!
Oh you did not hear? Edwards shut it down and is a Nole. He is hitting the phones hard to recruit for us. Texas and LSU has been rules out
GO NOLES!!! SCALP EM!
I've been so concerned with this Bucs coaching debacle
I have confidence in FSU so don’t really worry about it as much. I have ZERO confidence in the Bucs so have been distracted.
Good luck Rah. Bring us Mo Claiborne and replace Geno, Quincy, and Sean Jones!
If this were 2 years from now
Id bet Jimbo’s name would come up. Go Noles
That will depend on if he takes us to the top this year.
Best opportunity in 10 years.
As you can always expect come from behind victory is when you least expect it.
HE LOSES 4 GAMES A YEAR!!!!
Playing in the worst BCS conference with a school that attracts elite talent!!
JIMBO IZ DE BEST COACH EVAR!!!! WE WUN DE CHAMPZ SPOTZ BAWL!!!!! FSU IS BACK!!! – FSU fans

wait wait wait.....
First are you really saying FSU is a legitimate contender? Second are you really saying Jimbo turned them into one? And third is the champs sports bowl that much better then the Pinstripe Bowl
October 28th, 2011-- a date which will live in infamy--
OTTOTD.com
I said FSU is a legit contender compared to Rutgers.
Pretty sure their going to be ranked in the top ten preseason next year. Yeah FSU was pretty much mediocre until Jimbo took over. Winning the ACC in his second season as compared to struggling in the Big East is a big difference.
Good luck Rah. Bring us Mo Claiborne and replace Geno, Quincy, and Sean Jones!
Winning the ACC???? ummmm...pretty sure you lost 4 games and went to a third tier bowl
I guess 4 losses a year now equals a “legitimate contender” these days in Tally.

Pretty sure going into the preseason ranked in the top five does.

You have to have around 9 wins to play in the Champs Bowl the Pinstripe takes trash 6-6 or 7-5 type teams

thanks nolefan
you not only understand my point, but you seem to know your FSU ball. Glad you gave me assurance on Edwards, he looks like a young Peppers. Absolute freak.
Good luck Rah. Bring us Mo Claiborne and replace Geno, Quincy, and Sean Jones!
College dynamics are entirely different than NFL.
Not each school has the same facilities, coaches, money, access to recruits, schedule, etc. Much more disparity in talent and funds in NCAA than NFL.
As you can always expect come from behind victory is when you least expect it.
I said it's better, but not by much
Neither are considered great bowl games and winning at Rutgers is a little tougher than winning at FSU.
Also Big East>ACC in footbaw

You can play catchup and never get there or you can blaze your own trail. We did it with the Tampa 2,
New England did it with the no superstar, team play, defense still has a place in this league. Look at the playoff field. Balt, Pit, Denver, Houston, Cincy, NYG (kind of), SF were all defensive big shots.
As you can always expect come from behind victory is when you least expect it.
imo the new trail that could have been blazed would have been trying Kelly's O in the NFL. I do not see Shiano trying anything gorundbreaking to blaze a trail
GO NOLES!!! SCALP EM!
Spread/speed is much more level at NFL than NCAA.

And can't even dominate the scrub Big East
and this is why I’m not at all excited about this hire.
Good luck Rah. Bring us Mo Claiborne and replace Geno, Quincy, and Sean Jones!
You have to do more with less in the Big East
In the NFL, talent is pretty equal team to team. It becomes more about utilizing players and system than raw talent. He made a crappy program relevant. Not everyone can win the national title ever year.
As you can always expect come from behind victory is when you least expect it.
Obviously not everyone can win the national title ever year
Point is that Rutgers isn’t really a contender to win the national title or has ever been. All coaches have to do the best they can with whatever they have. I’m not understanding your point.
Good luck Rah. Bring us Mo Claiborne and replace Geno, Quincy, and Sean Jones!
Talent disparity is huge in college level.
NJ/NY is not a recruiting hotbed yet he still draws out of state guys to a small program in a crappy conference. He doesnt have the recruiting areas like FL, TX etc but still does well.
As you can always expect come from behind victory is when you least expect it.
The northeast isn't complete garbage in terms of recruiting.
yes Florida and Texas are the elite states but Ohio State, West Virgina, Michigan, Wisconsin, Iowa etc. those teams have more than decent talent every year for the most part.
Good luck Rah. Bring us Mo Claiborne and replace Geno, Quincy, and Sean Jones!
Michigan guys go to Mich, Ohio goes to OSU, WIsc to Wisc.
NY/NJ is far worse off in talent than those places you mentioned. Drawing out of state guys is tough.
As you can always expect come from behind victory is when you least expect it.
You're telling me Penn State pulls only people from PA?
This isn’t true at all.
Good luck Rah. Bring us Mo Claiborne and replace Geno, Quincy, and Sean Jones!
Not only from Penn, but you draw more instate guys than out of state guys.
As you can always expect come from behind victory is when you least expect it.
Oh, so you mean he got better talent than Rutgers? Interesting.
Thats what happens in college. These small schools dont pull big name talent at every position. They have to work with less. Turning around a small school that was awful into a mid-tier bowl bound school is good work.
As you can always expect come from behind victory is when you least expect it.
He also took Miami to Nat'l Title games as DC and has Belichick ties.
As you can always expect come from behind victory is when you least expect it.
Texas pulls alot of TX guys but a few from out of state.
But they ahve the funds, the facilities and tradition to do so. Not every school has that.
As you can always expect come from behind victory is when you least expect it.
I get your point
Still not sure about the hire. I was hoping for a coach with some NFL exp. But when your talking college football where a coach is from does not make them a great coach. College is recruiting
And turning Rutgers into a mid-tier school shows he did a fantastic job.
Whats the selling point on Rutgers? Anyone? There isnt one, yet he still drew decent talent and turned the program around.
As you can always expect come from behind victory is when you least expect it.
When you look at his record
You have to take into account the program that he took over. Rudgers was a joke
It's not a joke but still not legit.
Good luck Rah. Bring us Mo Claiborne and replace Geno, Quincy, and Sean Jones!
There are countless bowl games that don't really mean anything. He went to the Papa Johns and St. Petersburg bowls hardly outstanding by my standards.
I hate to dog the guy but no one is giving me any reason to believe in him either. He goes a career 28-48 against a weak conference, Lord only knows what New Orleans and Atlanta are going to do to us.
Good luck Rah. Bring us Mo Claiborne and replace Geno, Quincy, and Sean Jones!
You completely ignore the fact that the program he took over was absolutely horrible
You cannot judge Rutgers by the same scale you judge Penn State or FSU. It’s ridiculous.
I'm not but he's had time and hasn't done much
sorry that you find average at best to be good. I don’t.
Good luck Rah. Bring us Mo Claiborne and replace Geno, Quincy, and Sean Jones!
Says the guy that is touting Jimbo Fisher and his 4 losses per year as a great coach
I think it’s pretty clear that you do find average at best to be good.

Maybe I should try to fit in and be happy we just picked up this sweet Rutgers coach.
Yes! I’m going to Selmon’s to celebrate this is excellent!

I am far from excited
But im not sure a HC would have excited me. I care more about what we do in FA and the draft
Jimbo must have turned down the Job
If the Schiano deal fall apart “sources” tell me Sander is next on the list.
How am I passed over?
As you can always expect come from behind victory is when you least expect it.
I was holding out for a better parking spot.
As you can always expect come from behind victory is when you least expect it.
You guys cannot just look at the record. Rutgers was one of the most putrid college programs around the 20th century. Since Schiano took over they atleast go to bowl games now. Pretty solid turnaround but
I am still not a big fan of this. Just due to me wanting an O minded guy. That said, I will withhold judgement until I see our DC and OC
GO NOLES!!! SCALP EM!
Nothing wrong with wanting an offensive minded coach.
We had that with Gruden and treaeded water his last 4 years. One is not better than the other.
As you can always expect come from behind victory is when you least expect it.
We won an NFC titles and should have won another his last 4 years but Monte announced he was gone and the D packed it in and we went from 9-3 to 9-7 missed playoffs by half game to Philly.
Just this year a HC in the NFC South finally has tied Gruden for most NFC South titles and imo Gruden should have had another one if not for Kiffin leaving
GO NOLES!!! SCALP EM!
I lost big money on that Carolina game...
Good luck Rah. Bring us Mo Claiborne and replace Geno, Quincy, and Sean Jones!
yep
I bet a hundred bucks Stewart/Williams combined wouldn’t go over 125 rushing yards and another hundred on the game. It was pure misery, I took a vacation day for Tuesday so I could go out and get sloppy to clinch the division.
Good luck Rah. Bring us Mo Claiborne and replace Geno, Quincy, and Sean Jones!
Last 4 years we weren't cream of the crop.

What was Saban in the NFL? Petrino?
SHould we have hired Rich Rod after his great WVU run?

I don't want a college coach at all
but if we have to take a college coach at least get a winner. Sorry I’m not excited for a 28-48 in a scrub conference coach. You must be used to mediocrity and accept it at this point. I’m not quite to that level yet.
Good luck Rah. Bring us Mo Claiborne and replace Geno, Quincy, and Sean Jones!
Were you happy with Jimbo Fisher?
He hasnt turned out great for us. Big name from a big conference. Its not all about where you play.
You want to look at record and draw finite conclusions. Its not possible. How did the talent on that team stack up against everyone else? I bet it was average at best.
As you can always expect come from behind victory is when you least expect it.
Of course I was happy with Jimbo
he was already in place to take over the job. He’s had some NFL talent to work with like Ray Rice, Kenny Britt, Anthony Davis most recently.
Good luck Rah. Bring us Mo Claiborne and replace Geno, Quincy, and Sean Jones!
Jimbo has been underwhelming with the talent he has. 2012 is a huge year for him.
As you can always expect come from behind victory is when you least expect it.
E.J. Manuel will be pushed by the new kid in town.
FSU should be fine and are set up for greatness in the near future.
Good luck Rah. Bring us Mo Claiborne and replace Geno, Quincy, and Sean Jones!
You have a valid point
This hire in no way will wow you. I think anyone who says this hire will wow them is nuts. But it certainly by no mean does not mean that he is not a good football coach
I agree but in the NFL it is all about the coordiantors. The HC if he does not handle play-calling is just a boss. I just hope we get great a OC and DC
In college the head coach needs to be a solid recruiter on top of managing the game and program is the big difference.
GO NOLES!!! SCALP EM!
Well 620 was saying this could be a package deal
and coordinators would already be in place if Schiano were hired?

He's right we should build through the draft
but we should supplement in free agency. We’ve had 3 years of drafting, time to supplement as well.

of course we should build through the draft but we should also sign someone every blue moon in FA

Sadly that is all. Although that was a great pickup for us even though we overpaid

Well there surely was some kind of under handed backstabbing involved
but Dominik has been exposed. He won’t be able to hide that since his reign began we’ve turned into a bottom feeder. Remember when he said how he built the most physically imposing Buccaneer team ever?

He does not bring in top talents to his program, and does not always have the best team, but his teams are always competitive, and they are always tough.

now that the initial shock is over of course I will support him until he screws it up. On the positive, he is used to working with below average and right now we aren’t very good so maybe just maybe it’l work.

WHy is it a huge risk? We arent hiring some guy who doesnt know football
As you can always expect come from behind victory is when you least expect it.
I agree Although it would have been fun to see if that Offense would have worked. Shiano is a safer HC that likes smash mouth ball
I hope he hires a good staff if he gets the job
GO NOLES!!! SCALP EM!
Yeah I'm done dogging him for now.
I want to see how he drafts, if we get free agents, and other things this off season. I’m not thrilled but relieved we don’t have Sherman.

What were the problems this year?
Maturity, accountability, defense. The Schiano hire addresses all three. Offense issues can be fixed with the right coordinator, which we never had in the first place. If you were displeased with this year;s team and how it was run, we just addressed most of the issues.

Im done with the Yuckaneers
The glazers did as i suspected and got themselves a bargain basement coach, you will be wishing for sherman as for me 26 years of rooting for the Yuckaneers is enough.
I put up with all those years of rooting for one of the joke teams of the NFL i refuse to do that again.
Aslong as the glazers has this franchise dont hold your breath on another super bowl unless they can get one for you at a bargain basement price.
