Doesn’t have either coordinator right now, however, I still think you’re reaching out of spite instead of reason
There’s a lot left to play out with how Rhule puts his staff together and it doesn’t have to be a net negative, it could be a positive overall

Hardly.

But things are certainly gonna look different next year. Next 2 years will be telling and vital if Rhule is the guy or not.

I know people get all worked up about it but I would rather have a head coaching search right about now instead of a "Who will Rhule hire" search.

Maybe so but he has been a failure and underperforming 9 million dollar man.

NU better not be waiting until the end of year 4 to realize if he is the guy or not. He should be judged on how he handles the the coaching turn over, Off season, Recruiting and wins/Losses in year 3.

the best is in front of us. Small step this year - lots of young talent. 2025 nice step coming!

Frost got 5 years and did nothing and showed 0 improvement. I think we could let Rhule get another year under his belt.

If it is obvious that Rhule is “toast” and he ends up coaching the Huskers in 2025, what does that say about Troy Dannen?
Does Dannen truly have the power to do so? Trev wanted to fire Frost in 2021 but the boosters told him no.

Rhule should be toast even if he isn’t yet. First he hires a bevy of **** coaches on offense. Then he fires his OC and brings in DH who still hasn’t indicated if he will be back. Now Rhule loses his top two defensive coaches. That probably means some recruiting decommits are on the way.

And all this after another year of cluster **** mediocrity. We should do what Purdue did. Fire a coach after 2 years. Rhule stinks and it should be obvious he stinks. Get rid of him and move on.

If so, it is plausible that said boosters were the driving force to bring Matt Rhule to Lincoln …..in which case it would be reasonable to assume that he is not toast.

He needs at least one more year. White hasn't stayed at a program longer than a few years so it's not surprising he's leaving. PotRoast leaving is a sign there may be troubles within. Hopefully the pressure will bring back the old Rhule and the nice guy can die. Harness the dark side.

nah Rhule didn't fire is OC. Just made him the highest paid TE coach. That is the CEO we have running this sinking ship

let's say Matt finds another job and leaves
With very few exceptions, “hot seat” coaches under a long term contract do not voluntarily resign. This is especially the case where a huge ($56M) payday would be forfeited by doing so. Even if he wanted to leave, Rhule will undoubtedly force the AD to remove him.
