If we can give Hoiberg time why not Rhule?

We know we can’t get rid of Rhule next season (and with the schedule we have we will be lucky to win 7 games imo) but we should all just sit back and relax and let Rhule give this a try to turn this program around.

I’ve been negative of Rhule for a season plus (I always said if you college football coaches can’t figure it out in 2 years they won’t make it work 90% of the time) but we can’t look at Indiana and expect the same results.

Rhule builds his programs in different ways and that’s who we currently have. We can’t force him to be Cigs and be a guru over talent evaluation and film study, that’s not Rhule’s way. We need to support our coach in the process he is going through and trust in faith we can get it figured out by 2030.

Rhule is a slow smoke brisket and Cig is a fat cheddar delicious bratwurst, we gotta let that brisket smoke and hope it doesn’t over cook and trust in the process of the 28 hour cook and not depend on the 30 minute grill of the brat.

It’s the long game we are playing at Nebraska…this is a special place. No place like Nebraska….we build things the right way, not the cheap asshole way a cheddar brat can treat ya when it explodes its cheddar goodness all over the grill, but we are methodical in the way we cook…and we need to let the preacher cook. This might be Nebraska’s last supper if we don’t.
 
Rhule needs to show some semblance of in-game competence before I will regain faith.

We have a new QB and got rid of his family baggage (including our OL coach and a wasted QB commit) and a new DC. Rhule has shown his turn around at Temple and Baylor, have faith
 
I like your optimism BD and there are 2 reasons why I'm going to ride with you on this...1) I currently can't change the status quo and 2) I won't have a billion in the near future to be able to change the status quo, so... 🙏
 
Even when we sucked under Hoiberg you could tell we were a well coached team. The sets and offense we run has always been A++. A lot of Hoiberg’s issues first couple years was letting Matt A. have control over the roster.

For me, Rhule has yet to show he is a competent coach in the product he puts out on the field, development and recruiting.

With that said, give him a couple more years.
 
Hire a coach, let them know they are expected to make the best possible staff hires at all times, give them money to make those hires, let them know they are expected to make the best possible portal moves at all times, give them money for that. ignore them for months on end. Fire them only if they don't listen to said rules, get too angry, get too drunk, or get too horny. It's really pretty simple.
