Agreed.

Also it's very telling that some people on here were willing to let Frost step in his own shit for 4+ yrs and they continued to back him... But Rhule has had the job for 24 hours and already they're being tough guy on him.

Like, let him hire his full staff before you start freaking out.
It’s like the have the brain of a teenage girl, one day you love him the next day can’t stand him, my god it embarrassing
 
Proven recruiters? Not all of them, but most of them have backgrounds in recruiting. I probably shouldn't have said all as I haven't stayed up to date on all of the hires.
It doesn’t matter either way at this point to be honest. It’s probably a good thing atleast half of Nebraska fans are skeptical. Maybe it will work out for once.

You never know and you certainly don't know 24 fuckin hours after a guy has had the job.

I do know this: I trust the combo of Alberts/Rhule a hell of a lot more than I trusted Moos/Frost and Eichorst/Riley. Alberts and Rhule have been talking about this for a month, I'm sure that staff personnel had come up. I trust that Rhule put out a projected staff that Alberts and the search firm approved of.

This is in contrast to Frost telling Moos he was hiring the JV staff. Moos surely didn't approve but no one at NU had the juice to tell him no.
 
JFC dude have a drink and pull yourself together, you go from being all SF even when he’s clearly a terrible coach right up till him being fired, to being all in on Rhule, to the sky is falling is falling now one day later. Things are never as good or bad as we make them out to be, probably a good lesson to take in
And then having the gall to analogize the less than 2 days worth of decisions Rhule has made to mistakes he now apparently believes that Frost made out of the gate that he seems to believe were fatal. It's the upside-down.

We would have probably been better off if Moos got to hire who he wanted. He was just a patsy.
 
Inside Nebraska has also been told that tight ends coach Sean Beckton, defensive backs coach Travis Fisher and linebackers coach Barrett Ruud will not be retained by Rhule.

 
Yeah but that doesn’t address why Frost got the benefit of your doubt until the last possible moment and this partial staff is already getting a pretty critical eye?

What does Frost have a fucking thing to do with Matt Rhule hiring under qualified people?

You acted like an asshole in favor of Scott Frost way past the time when it made sense to support him, disappeared when he started losing badly, then popped back up afterwards without acknowledging that all your prickish posts in favor of him were way off base.

Now you’re heavily criticizing the new coach 3 days into his regime based on half his staff being hired.

Seems like if you’re going to support one staff way past the point where they clearly sucked, you should give the next at least 4-5 days before you call them out?

Any coach at Nebraska will have my support.

Me being critical of these hires has absolutely nothing to do with Frost. Not sure what you’d like me to do. Do you want me to apologize for hurting your feelings? I’m sorry. The “You supported Frost for so long so you don’t get to be critical of Matt Rhule” is a really stupid argument.

Now that we’re past your hurt feelings and I can have an opinion again, it’s very clear that Matt Rhule has chosen these first hires based on anything but experience. Very bold strategy.

You could just clarify why Frost got the benefit of the doubt for so long - is he a relative? Did you work for him? Do you admire his camouflage hats?

I don’t necessarily disagree on these hires, but seems silly to me to judge before the full staff is hired. Robinson is an absolute stud and got his start under Rhule without a lot of experience - if he gets the coordinators and the OL hire right, some inexperienced guys doesn’t give me a ton of heart burn.
 
Objectively Rhule does have a history of identify up and coming coaches. His past staffs seem to blend some more experienced guys with some hungry up and comers that seem to go on and have decent careers. Time will tell if that is the case with this staff.

As I’ve said previously, when you look back at Frost, he failed day one by not filling his staff with the best possible people for the jobs when he had a blank check to do so.

Matt Rhule appears to want to also find out if an inexperienced staff can make it in this grown man’s league.

We’ll see, but the direction he appears to want to go has lowered my expectations for him.

This should be a top 3 coached staff in the league. The route we are on doesn’t accomplish that. Not even a little bit.
