We still sell 100% of the tickets. Idc if blocks are purchased by corps or not. Still selling them. Still have a bunch of money coming in from individuals and businesses. We ain't dead.

Special Teams Coach Hot Board

Money doesn't make a great team. It just makes it possible.
Man this is just brutal if true
Especially with how GOD AWFUL our linebacker play was this past year
Kill me
To be fair there are no direct flights to LAX from Omaha or Lincoln
I’ve found myself less and less on the board lately as a result
So let me get this straight… Wanker wants to hand the keys to Josh Martin? The same twat who shat the bed at SMU and assisted “Special Ed” before Ekler. Christ on a bike!
It feels way whiny-er than it did even in the Frost tenure (2022 season notwithstanding - everybody was jumping ship at that point).
People are passing their whiny-ness off as sophisticated and skeptical.....but it really feels to me like a race to be "right" about Rhule. Like a bunch of people bet on Frost and he made them all look like idiots, so they don't want to get caught out again. So they're in a race to be one of the first ones saying Rhule will fail.
I'm not even saying they're wrong....I'm just saying it's miserable. The guy is definitely here at least 2 more years. That's roughly 700 more days of this. Why would you want to spend all 700 of those days reminding everyone that 'you called it' RE: Rhule failing. You don't get a prize for it! No one's mailing you a reward check for calling it.
Part of being a fan is the blind optimism and annual hope. Who would want to go to Wrigley Field as a Cubs fan for 81 games a year, telling everyone your own team sucks balls and should be sold to a billionaire in Boise, Idaho?? Sounds fuckin miserable to me.
This isn't a pro-Rhule post BTW. I'm just saying I don't want to spent the next 700 days reading these petty posts about who called it first and wins the prize of predicting Rhule's failure the best. It's dumb. You don't like the guy, we get it. You're predicting he'll get fired, we get it. You don't need to post the same version of that 100x/day. We understand. We get it.
Wow, didn’t realize how little Rhule thought of Ekeler
So: we like what we’ve got in the RB room and we like what we’ve got at ST.
This just sounds like justification for failing to make an effort to make the team better.
Rhule is really proving to be someone other than we thought we were getting.

Oh to be a fly on the wall
"Hey coach, I turned your special teams from the country's worst to one of its best in one season. I noticed your linebackers play like absolute ass. I've coached LB before. Mind if I stay on at ST and help with LB too?"
"Hmm sounds like you're not fully committed to what we're building here bro. If/when you leave we're gonna replace you with 3 coaches and be even better"
The really fucked up part is that I read USC still has their ST guy and they don't even have a DC yet. I would think the new guy would want to pick his staff. Makes no sense right now.
Come back, sign your extension, get your big raise and see what next year brings.
or maybe it went down like this....
“Hey corch, I took your special teams from the worst in the country to legitimately good in one season. I’m not trying to overstep, not trying to grab power, and I’m perfectly happy staying in my lane. Linebackers aren’t my job, and I haven’t asked to make them my job.”
“Perfect. That’s exactly the kind of assistant we want—someone who improves his unit, doesn’t create imaginary turf wars, and understands how staff roles actually work. We’re not threatened by competence, and we’re not going to turn one departure into some dramatic culture battle.”
"Thanks corch...However, I am bat shit crazy and love moving from job to job. My dads been in a loony bin up in Togus and he burned my ear on a stove. He was making flapjacks. Thats probably why I act so crazy. So I'm gonna leave for USC."
I bet a lot of people won't get the reference in the last paragraph. But it is still fun to make shit up.
If Rhule is making $7M a year to be a CEO type head coach, hard to have much sympathy if he can't deal with it
Like honestly he could be Mark Mangino wiping his ass with shower towels, if he puts out a top 25 special teams unit he's coming back
You’re telling me you don’t bear hug your boss during working hours?
USC is hiring a guy to fix ST when they don’t even have an opening.
We decided to essentially leave our job open and rely on guys who, as I understand it, were around when the ST sucked and had to be fixed by the guy we’ve decided to not replace.
Seems like a legit plan.
