Rutgers could be on the verge of losing coach Greg Schiano, less than a week before national signing day.

Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that the Tampa Bay Bucs are near an agreement to hire Schiano to be their new head coach. The two sides met Wednesday and Thursday to put the finishing touches on a deal, Schefter reports.

Nothing is finalized. Remember, the Bucs were on the verge of hiring Oregon coach Chip Kelly several days ago before things fell apart. Stay tuned for more updates.
