Why is Sam interviewing him? Is he trying to fuck our recruiting class by keeping the Rhule to PSU talk hot?

Because he knows what people will pay to read
Yeah it's his job to report and write about the big stories that people are talking about. He's probably being inundated with emails about it daily. He's doing the job he has.
 
The simulation demands that Dannen panics, signs Rhule to a mega extension, then we immediately fall flat on our face the remainder of the season just like the last time we started 5-1.

I'm not for an extension atm either, but our last 6 games of 2025 are considerably easier than the last 6 games of 2024.
 
I wonder if Dannen has an extension with perks in mind, but wants to maybe wait just 8-9 more days. Or maybe even one or two more days. Extending Rhule when he is at 6-1, or even 7-1 versus a knee jerk extension when Rhule is tied with his mid season 2024 record prior to the slump would go down easier as far as being earned. Maybe he feels that 7-1 is a point where he has some leverage with donors to pump up the NIL funds after he points out we're off to the best start we've had since 2016.

While the clock is definitely ticking, Dannen at least has the gift of having updated results to factor into the decision in less than 12 hours. 6-1 and guaranteed bowl bound by a smidge after midseason feels a lot more sellable than 5-1 with no guarantee we don't repeat our 2024 midseason nose dive.

Sipple mentioned in TT this morning that two coaches have already reached out to Dannen if in case Rhule were to leave. Educated guess would lead me to believe those two would be PJ Fleck or Matt Campbell. I could begrudgingly talk myself into either of those hires, but I would very much prefer that does not happen.

Part of me almost wants to see what happens in the Huskerverse if he hires Fleck.

I’d guess Campbell and Klieman

There’s no situation where I could talk myself into Fleck Rowing his boat around wagon train or Holmes lake

Rhule going to Penn State would be their Nebraska - Scott Frost moment.

It's a horrible decision that would end in a burning dumpster fire. Penn State is pure toxicity right now and their expectations are unreasonable.

People can bring up Cignetti all they want but he found a perfect position and the dude is a fucking psychopath...it's great to watch.

If Rhule wants to drag his dick through broken glass to try to prove something, good luck to him. I would just appreciate that he makes sure our AD knows his decision right now so we can minimize the destruction that we will have to endure.

Yeah... fuck all that

Really don’t want Klieman. Don’t want this program to decide that it is the kind of place that needs a scrappy coach who can make something out of nothing.

Let’s try to be a place that sees itself as having more than nothing to work with.

Same goes for Leipold, Monkey Tits, and ilk.

Brother I question your sanity if you could talk yourself into peej

People really need to get off the “look at what X coach did with less resources” train. Thats how you get Mike Riley. If Rhule proved anything, you need a guy that has the bigger vision.
 
If you don’t swing hard at DeBoer and Kiffin with blank checks we aren’t serious about getting back to championship level football
We couldn't pull those guys in even we ever wanted to.

Kiffin, maybe, but that would be out of his hatred coaching at Ole Miss than anything else.

Other people have said the same and I still disagree. DeBoer got out at Washington cause he knew moving to the big ten made that a bad job. I think he also knows he will never satisfy Alabama folk and they are 1-3 more losses this year away from wanting him run out. Midwest routes. I know for a fact he wanted the Nebraska job bad while at Fresno State
