To go with Hartline. There have been rumors on OSU boards about it.

Transfer QB

If he goes and grabs 15+ guys from the portal it’s gonna tell you all you need to know. He’ll be admitting that the developmental talk was either fluff or didn’t work. Or that they whiffed on talent eval.
I could see around 10.
Excuses already piling
IDK, it’s working pretty good for TT and Indiana. (Bringing in transfers and starting them over current players)
I say get the best players possible that fit your culture and play/start the best guys. If you have a good culture and you bring players with character and talent it shouldn’t be a problem. Quite the opposite I think. Players often know better than anyone if their teammate is better than them, if you the right culture players should be ok with backing up a better player.
At least for a season anyway 🤣
I personally don’t think we will make a bowl. It will be interesting to see what happens if we don’t.
Should get canned

Totally forgot about Hartline. Makes sense then
I agree but will he? I have my doubts. If we get raped a lot he probably gets fired. If we win 4-5 games but the games are close they will probably play the Frost card and keep him one more year.
If we miss a bowl in year 4 he should be fired. Schedule doesn’t fucking matter if you can actually field a competent football team. If your team is worth a damn the schedule might stop you from winning a conference championship or going to the playoffs. A tough schedule is not an appropriate excuse for only winning 5 or less games.
Pretty much how I see it. 5-7 with 3-4 blow out losses and it’s a 90+% chance he’s gone. 5-7 with 3-4 really close losses… IDK 🤷♂️
I am guessing we end up at 12-15, but I also think probably 5-6 of those guys will be guys who don't get revenue sharing. You can really only pay the top half of the roster out of revenue sharing. Signing those guys really doesn't say anything about previous talent acquisition as there are likely only replacing guys who were leaving because they'll never play.
That would certainly seem like a huge letdown after the "we no longer have financial restrictions" comments
If Rhule's plan involves anything other than letting Chiles walk on as an emergency back up, Nebraska is more cooked than usual
Everybody says this, but who is going to pony up the money to pay him?? I'm guessing that if your scenario is correct, he'll be hard-pressed to find a job that pays half of what he made here.
Ya, I don’t disagree, but obviously TT and Indiana nailed the portal talent eval too. We’ve been pretty bad at it and I think Rhule knows it, thus the Pat Stewart hire. Very excited to see his impact on our roster and how he goes about the portal different than past years.
How much would the university owe Rhule if he is fired after next year?
North of 50m. So it’s not going to happen.
That extension will probably bite the university in the ass in the end.
Listen, Dannen is taking us right back to the top where we belong....
....of the "Universities paying coaches who aren't there anymore" list
It would be interesting to know how much money we have wasted on head coaches, ADs, and assistants post Tom Osborne. I bet we are pretty high on that list.
