I’m glad what i post on a message board is preventing Rhule from doing his job.

Fat Matt if you’re reading this leave the fuckin state and go do some recruiting. We’ll all forget about you going to the league cuz you hated recruiting if you try for us a little.

Why would your posting on a message board prevent Rhule from doing his job?

I’m no Raiola apologist, but I’m a huge Rhule fan, so I trust he sees something in Donny. Great breakdown by @slattimer earlier today on the type of offense and run game Rhule will likely implement. Seems like a better style and fit. Feel like there was conflicting styles in the offense with Frost’s vision and Whipple. Donny had to be conflicted as well. I think Rhule will clarify that and we’ll begin to establish and identity… finally. It’ll take time and Rhule will get it.

I’m wait and see, but I lean towards him not tearing it up here. He would have been my fourth choice out of coaches we could have got.

I think it's important to remember that two things can be true at once. We can question, but we can also allow the man to do his job without going full @Ducksker (aka Kitty)

RSS used to be full Rufus. TPB is full Duckster.

Matt Rhule was just introduced on 11/28/22 for fucks sake!

You've figured how his entire tenure is gonna go after he's had 8 days on the job. That's some good analysis LOL.

Technically tomorrow is day 12. He was hired on the saturday the 26th then wisconsin announced #2ndChoice sunday

I’ll say this.. if he can close on Coleman, Lenhardt, and the A&M transfer this weekend i’ll change my tune a little

That's different then. You already know how a coach's next 5 full seasons are going to turn out after the first 12 days. That's the old addage. It's always been true.

Yea you’re right it’s premature but coaches who fail are much higher than coaches who succeed. Also my view on any coach who we hired was going to be be based off assistant hires and I’m honestly not very impressed with his hires. Maybe he strikes gold with these guys but I’m skeptical.

 

[Poor_and_Stupid]

While I do agree with Tone’s sentiment here, I will remain convinced that there is some higher power that bars us from success at every turn. Every move, every hire, logical or illogical, is destined for total failure. I won’t get excited for success until it smacks me in the face. My prediction of 2-10 is firm.

This is why I pray The Tone when times get rough, not The Rosery. Tone is my true voice of reason

With all due respect, I don't think any of us know CFB well enough to make that call (how a HC is gonna do based on asst coach hires). That is some serious "inside the beltway" shit. You and I don't have the inside knowledge on most of these guys - but the HC fraternity does.

I'm not claiming Rhule's hires are going to be good either. I won't know until 1 yr from now.

You gotta be really on the inside of the HC circles to know this stuff. None of us are. We're just going off of assistant coaches that we've heard of. That's really not enough info to go on.

 

[ChocaEgg]

There was 1% that didn't?

Plenty of people coming up ways to justify retaining Raiola. Mind bottling.

Honestly it will be hard to tell anything in year one. It will take 3-4 years to judge Rhule. I’m just saying most of his hires are underwhelming on paper. Hopefully he does what he did at the other two schools, but I’ll believe it when I see it.

After watching this season play out I personally wanted him fired at the 50 yard line before a sold out crowd so we could both enjoy the spectacle and donate the money to a charity for children that were traumatized by watching Casey Thompson get beat within an inch of his life this season. That being said, Donnie doesn’t strike me as a smooth talking self promoter. So if he was hired by one coach (albeit an absentee slap dick) and retained by another (whom I think has earned some respect), I have to think that is because he is either a good coach and good fit for this staff, or he is so physically intimidating that they were afraid to fire him (which I also kind of like in an OL coach tbh).

 

[NTXHusker]

I’m tired of fucking “hoping”. Why not go out and hire proven dudes so we don’t have to “hope” anymore. It’s like recruiting a bunch of 2 & 3 stars, sure you’ll hit on a few of them but never enough to have sustainable success.

We’ve put a lid on our ceiling already and for what reason? For fuckssake look at what Wisconsin is doing.

You’ve got to quit pretending that proven guys want to just fucking come here and that money whipping them is going to work.

That says a lot about Rhule then.

 

[djw004]

The vast majority of all Husker fans covered up or refused to accept the fact that Scott Fraud was as worthless as tits on a boar. Rhule knows what he’s doing. Let him do it. This is comical at the highest levels. Chill and enjoy it.

I love optimistic Tone.

You are in a battle with two others

rhule can take all the time he wants, but if we lost to minny/cu to start the season, i guarantee the fans will be checked out for the year. this job isn't a complete rebuild like his previous jobs. and if you are making 10 mil a year, you should be able to at least go .500

Tbf, we're really only paying him like 5.5 million this year

 

[lee_carvallo_12]

Did Rhule start his tenure at Baylor and Temple with seasoned, P5 coaches? Honest question, too lazy to look. Some post his initial hires at both schools por favor.
