Did he though? He went 3-6 last year in the Big 10 only schedule with the 3 wins against sub 500 teams. He is 3-0 so far this year but he hasn’t played a Big 10 team yet(Temple, Syracuse, and Delaware).
My issue was that he built Rutgers with Florida recruits that the Big 3 passed on. That was good enough to do well in a Big East that was a shell of its former self. What happens when he has to do better than a bunch of 3 star recruits that Florida and FSU do not want.
