Editorial Looking Ahead: What Does Rhule Really Have to Build On Going Into Year 4?

I think identity is also one of those over used words.

How many teams in the B1G can you look at and say this is their offensive and defensive identity and how do you measure it?

Cockeye is the best example, I think, but they're also a bit of an outlier. What's Illinois' identity? Indiana's identity?If you listen to Cignetti he'll rattle off >20 things that need to be done in order to win. If he's talking about filling the roster it's finding guys who are productive.

Identity to me is pro style, power, spread-up tempo etc. We have never seen the Holgerson offense he use to run. It seems like Rhule has wanted him to run something different which is closer to a Satterfield offense, and maybe Holgerson is washed up which I hope isn’t the case. Either way our offense has been pretty shitty the last three years.

You’d think in the transfer portal era it would make sense to hire a coordinator, and let them run what they know. Let the coaches focus on teaching the players rather than having to learn new shit themselves. If you need a different type of player for the new system at least you can go get them now. This place never fails to make whoever touches it fucking retarded. It’s a black hole of intelligence.

I don’t know if Rhule was ever a good coach. He had two good years as a head coach and everyone thought we were getting a proven commodity. He is also going up against big league coaches and teams with resources in this conference.
