Something I’m legit concerned about with Rhule

What does it say to Anthony Grant that he isn’t playing after one fumble yet Sims gets to make countless mistakes.

Could lose some people doing shit like that.

You're making the assumption that's the only reason he didn't play. Not that I know it isn't but he had some attitude issues in the spring.

It proves what we were all saying. The buddy hire sucks and the guy he'd never coached with who was a respected DC is a stud

I hate the term “buddy hire” because it’s lazy and you’ll find every coach hires people they’ve worked with previously. I’d prefer to look at each hire individually and decide whether they are good or not.

That being said, the “buddy hires” Rhule made on defense and special teams have been great hires.

Satterfield sucks independent of who his friends are and the idea he’s never actually been any good anywhere should have been an indication of that.

What was eye-opening to me was when I looked at Satt’s resume and discovered that he was never actually CHOSEN for his previous OC gigs. He was tapped as OC after the original OCs on those teams each left for one reason or another:

“In January 2013, Nick Rolovich, who had been tapped as the Owls' new offensive coordinator, backed out of the job, and Rhule offered the position to Satterfield.“

“On January 7, 2021, it was reported that Satterfield would join new head coach Shane Beamer's staff as offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach at South Carolina,[20] following the sudden departure of Mike Bobo to Auburn.”

Yeah what about all his buddy hires on defense outside of White?

They look good so far, but they had the luxury of having very good players like Newsome, Reimer, and hartzog around to work with. Where they lacked quality options, they went out and got quality transfers to fill the gap.

Defense could fall off bigly next year when dudes like Reimer and Newsome move on
