Your confidence level in Rhule after season 1?

[HerbRedman]

What is your confidence level that Rhule can get Nebraska to a regular 9-3 level program (occasionally 10-2)?

Scale 1-5....1 being least confident. 5 being most confident.

 

[Tonkasker]

I’m pretty confident Rhule can make us a consistent 7-5/8-4

Give him ten years and you’ll probably get a good enough QB that you contend for the playoff at least once

 

[Turn Down for What]

We already had a coach that consistently won 9 games and that wasn’t good enough and now it is 10 years later.

We have come full circle.

I’m never going to be that critical of a coach in year 1. I will give them the benefit of the doubt and simp for them.

It is never as simple as fans think it is.

 

[ChocaEgg]

I'd say 3/5. Would be 4 or 5 out of 5 if it was likely that he'd make significant changes on the offensive side of the ball.

 

[HerbRedman]

FYI - My vote: I'm a 4.5....still all-in on Rhule. I was a 5 at the beginning of the season.

Only thing that docked Rhule in my mind was:
- terrible misjudgement on Sims
- the odd end-game strategies in a couple games
- a little concerned about Satterfield losing the plot this yr

I think Rhule had a ton of positives he showed in 2023 about the way he runs the program, attention to detail, recruiting operation, accountability in program, overall organization of all 3 phases and of course the great hire that was Tony White (Rhule should get credit for this - he made the hire). He did decently well to keep the team together w no QB options + all the injuries.

I'm really like a 4.75...just don't feel like placing a huge bet on regular 9-3 right now.

You’re either a moron or a troll if you can’t see the difference between 9 wins in the Big 10 that’s about to exist vs the Big 12 and Big 10 ghat Pelini enjoyed

Yea 7-8 wins will be like 9 before if it plays out the way we think it will.

 

[Ext. 55]

Still all in. Too many positive culture building things happening to not recognize the level of success we are hoping for.

I went with 2. Getting to 9-10 wins will be tougher with the way the conference is going from a competitive standpoint. I’m not sold on Rbule’s recruiting being anything special or his assistants for the most part. He has also been reckless from a game management standpoint. It gets magnified in the BIG where there are no gimme games. Hopefully he proves me wrong.

When will it stop. You guys are having mental breakdowns lol

His recruiting is probably least of my worries based on his track record and what Baylor fans attribute Aranda’s success to.

You’re going against a lot of better schools in the BIG. It’s a whole different animal. We have never figured it out recruiting wise since joining the BIG.

 

[doublewing]

I'm neutral and a 3. I believe he can turn things around but need to see it happen and it's hard to judge in Y1.

While this season was disappointing in many ways, it met my expectations. I thought we'd win 4-5 games with 6 as the ceiling.

I’m talking talent that went to the NFL. If I recall, there’s an impressive stat out there regarding it.

I voted 4 and agree with these.

Encouraging that we were in a position to win what like 10 of our games? Discouraging that they couldn't figure out how.

 

[BIG TONE SOPRANO]

I think we should freak out about it for days on end

I thought #2ndChoice was the king of talent going to the NFL while being at a second rate program.

If you were confident in Rhule going into this season, I can't imagine your confidence is higher after the season.

I’m more confident. Was expecting this season to be worse honestly.
