2025-26 Coaching Carousel

Campbell can basically make millions in Ames until he retires, your ass is getting fired at Penn State eventually.

Getting fired seems to be one of the best gigs in CFB tho

 

[Irv]

I think the concern with Campbell is that the couple of years where people expected them to do big things they didn’t really come close. So he may be more of a high floor guy than a high ceiling one.

You guys love telling on yourselves

In 125 years half their bowl wins have come since 2017 (3/6)

Half the years they've finished ranked have come since 2017 (2/4)

They've gone to 20 bowl games in their history, he's taken them to 8 of those

All but one of their preseason rankings (4/5)

Taken them to every since conference title game they've played in

All but one of their 9+ win seasons

Their only NY6 bowl (insane accomplishment at Cockeye state)

Before he arrived they had (2!!!!) winning conference records since the Civil Rights act. He has 8 since. Insane

And he's doing it at one of the worst resourced schools in the country NIL-wise

Meanwhile matt rhule is consistently losing to peer programs like minnesota and Cockeye

Hey if you like his “success” so much why don’t you go cheer for them and leave Huskers fandom?

Hope Campbell gets the job so we can nuke this mofo from the discussion or crown him Saban reborn.

 

[SlumpBuster]

Falling into Campbell is like being homeless and finding a winning lottery ticket on the street.

Winning lottery ticket meaning like 3 number matches for $100?

Like if your homeless it's pretty big but if you're well off it's "meh"

Campbell at ISU is essentially Mike Riley at Oregon State. Second fiddle to the bigger state and people will talk about the "does more with less" B.S.

Mike Riley would still be our coach if he wasn’t forced to fire Banker don’t @ me.

I think this could be possible, just like BC if he would have fired Cosgrove.

Cambell had the Lions coming to Ames. Pretty damn impressive.

This isn't even close to true, but I completely understand the thought process.

 

[Juro]

Campbell is a C- hire for Penn State.

He might be good, but nothing in his history has suggested he could be elite for them.

i mean timeline wise this just has zero legs.
Rhule signed an extension with Nebraska literally days before we got embarrased by Minnesota.

15M buyout isnt anything anymore, but that still just doesnt hold up IMO.

What date did Rhule sign? I think the tweet is bullshit but just wanted to figure out the timeline a little better.

They announced it before Minnesota. I believe it was a done deal 7-10ish days before that.

 

[Steveweiser316]

If they hire Campbell we better be getting some portal adds from PSU

 

[Alcaus]

I thought they announced it on 10/30, before the USC game.

Am I losing my mind?

No he wouldn't. FFS.
