It’s also Rhule’s and #2ndChoice’s first years in the B1G, bub. Unsure how their prior staff fits into your narrative.
I said this in another thread, but I would hope that a school (and a CFP head coach) would recruit better than DONU. Perhaps that’s why #2ndChoice wasn’t necessarily an option… maybe he didn’t like the allure and challenge of having to recruit to a school that hasn’t won recently.
I honestly don’t get what point you’re trying to make or prove. Rhule seems to have done well so far, and that’s not even taking into account the pending commitment of Nelson. Is he the better coach on Saturday’s? Who knows.
All in all, just a strange beef you’re trying to have on this board about Rhule.
