Schiano’s agenda as long as list of demands

Considering Greg Schiano showed up to an interview with a scouting report on 100 Rutgers football players, imagine how long his to-do list is now that he is in charge again.

Schiano and Rutgers agreed on an eight-year, $32 million contract to return as head coach, a source told The Post, after season-ticket holders, boosters and New Jersey politicians revolted when negotiations broke off last week.

Schiano’s hire still needs approval Tuesday by the university Board of Governors, which balked at some of his original requests. Athletic director Pat Hobbs tried to steer the search in another direction, sources said, but money and power still talk loudest in a revenue-starved program like Rutgers.

Here are four things Schiano must do immediately to help Rutgers emerge from a 21-game Big Ten losing streak and no bowl berths since 2014:

Find the offensive coordinator/quarterback: Rutgers offense ranked no higher than third-to-last in the country four straight years, switching from spread to pro-style to run-pass option. Schiano’s last three seasons at Rutgers (2009-11) were marked by annual coordinator and quarterback swaps. He needs to move this offense into the 21st century and might have to go outside of his tight circle to do it. Convincing quarterback Art Sitkowski and running back Raheem Blackshear not to transfer makes the job more appealing.

Improve the recruiting class: Early signing period begins Dec. 18 and Rutgers has a class of 10 commitments ranked No. 96 nationally by 247 Sports. That’s worst in the Big Ten, behind the likes of the two teams the Scarlet Knights beat this season (Liberty and UMass) as well as FIU, UAB, UTSA and other acronyms. Time to call in any old favors with high school coaches. Schiano’s best bet is to raid the NCAA transfer portal for immediate starters unless he can flip a flashy recruit.

Be a salesman: Schiano held out for commitment to a new field house with an indoor practice facility. At Rutgers, the funds for such facilities need to be raised privately. With Hobbs — the best fundraiser in department history and with a $100 million basketball/wrestling/gymnastics facility to prove it — turning off boosters during this ego-driven search, Schiano needs to lure more deep pockets. Season-ticket sales — down to fewer than 17,000 in 2019, according to NJ Advance Media — should skyrocket with his arrival. Alums, notably NFL veterans, who fell out of touch with their alma mater are excited by his return.

Build a strong staff: Predecessor Chris Ash was handcuffed by Rutgers’ budget for assistant coach salaries. He was offering half the salary his top choices could get at other Power Five schools. Schiano took a salary on the small end for a Big Ten head coach — still larger than Ash’s — in order to double the pool available for his staff. Landing Michigan assistant Anthony Campanile and Rams assistant Jedd Fisch could be a good start.
