My bro coached Ernest Hausmann soccer for 6 years. Knows his dad. Can confirm that he was NOT a Scott Frost fan. AT ALL. (contrary to what everyone was saying about why he quit) To your point, said under Frost it was a disorganized cluster and Ernie wanted out of the mess BEFORE Frosty was fired. He has strong desire to go pro and knew he wasn't going to get what he needed under that regime. He didn't get the details of who all they reached out to ahead of time but said that they did give Rhule a shot. Problem was that the new lb coach wasn't very experienced and if you remember he was hired early on and there wasn't a DC yet. So he couldn't answer questions as to scheme etc. They just didn't want to wait and take the risk. that simple.
