With all the insanity of coaches up ending their entrenched teams this"off-season", could it be that Frost is letting him finish out the season until after their bowl? It looks like a meaningless Cure bowl on the 17th, but...I dunno, just grasping at straws here.
Otherwise, Ruggiero would be a nice pickup. I don't think he would simply implant his slow RPO here, but adapt something to this personnel and league. Which is exactly how he got the slow RPO to begin with.
