It appears he starts every game with a shiny new shovel.
He definitely spins it that way. I don’t know what’s worse going 5-7 or 6-6? You go 5-7 and you know changes will be made, if they go 6-6 Rhule will prop that up as tangible progress and retain everyone. It won’t matter anyway because we still won’t be prepared to compete in the BIG next year.

All of them are damn lucky they only have to hear the boos at one more home game this season.

Lucky at this stage of my life I don't buy into college or pro "entertainment" like I used to so the weekends don't suck anymore when they lose.

You are not going to fire anyone especially multiple ones. You thenhave GAs filling in and that never works. The only thing Rhule should do this week is change play callers .
Yet several teams do it every year, and sometimes it works. Once you’re sure that you want to change direction, going through the motions for the remainder of the season isn’t always the best option.

Nobody fired. Won’t be anyone fired. Everything will remain the same. Which means we end at 5-7 again.

Then we win the offseason again. Good recruiting class. Some decent transfers. Optimism will reign.
Then next Fall we will go 3-9.

I just think right now Rhule just needs to change play callers . That might make a difference in a 1-2 of our remaining games.

There is no way Rhule won’t make changes after the year.

Unfortunately probably true.

Absolutely no way Satt survives this. Popular opinion has already decided.

The sad thing is that if Rhule fires Satterfield, it likely will be because of the pressure on him to do it. I doubt that he would do it otherwise.

I doubt if the word "fired" is used with any possible coaching departures. We might hear "We've decided to go in a different direction" or "We wish coach X well as he leaves & accepts another position." I also think Rhule is a class act in trying to find any released coaches a job at another program.

I really hate that we might be looking at another postseason of no bowl game and wondering if our HC is going to make some drastic changes or stubbornly stick with his guys.

He will not fire anybody because it goes against the concept that he’s trying to build a program. Only thing he appears to be building is a flaming pile of dogsh1t. Tired of the incompetence. Right down to the clock management. We can’t do any of the little things to put ourselves in position to be successful. And that starts and ends with HCMR.

You could tell after he didn't take care of Foley like he should have that he didn't have it in him. It's really sad that people who should be stewards of our program have been doing this year after year. Too bad the fans can't take legal action, could be a groundbreaking case.

No news of Satt released or play calling duties changing. Send Rhule packing after this season, it's going to happen anyway. Do it sooner rather than later this time

Press conference could be interesting today. Even homers like Sipple and Callahan are going to start asking about play calling duties.

Hopefully, but i keep wondering, do good OC's typically accept a job without being able to bring any position coaches with them? Is Rhule cutthroat enough to let the offensive assistants go? I doubt it but hopefully he proves me wrong.

Class action lawsuit? I like the way you think

He’ll do the easy obvious move and have GT start calling plays. This doesn’t require him to fire anyone yet.

Allow Satt to resign sometime in February due to health reasons. Then turn around and ask Sonny Dykes If he has any illegitimate children that need a job

There’s a positive in all of this. Typically, when the majority of fans on here unite against the coach, that is the beginning of the end. So we have that going for us

I would go as far to say that Rhule names GT the OC after the season. I doubt Rhule hires someone outside of his circle to run the offense.

I’d love to hear some questions about how they use analytics (presumably they don’t) to inform their game plans, strategies, and play calling.

Don’t have to expose all your secrets coach, but just give me “two” specific examples.

Rhule will just say they’re a physical hard nosed team that just plays football, they don’t mess around with fancy analytics.

I'm not really joking about this, it runs the gambit from gross incompetence to what I believe was several cases of fraud, stakeholders should have some legal remedy.

I'll give more credit to Rhule than any of you at this point. He's bringing in baby sitters to look over the shoulders of both the OC and DC. That's not nothing and it certainly doesn't look like a guy who is only concerned about keeping his friends employed in the face of public criticism. I'm pissed off right now but don't be silly - Rhule wants to win badly.

Last week, I said to get Satt some help because it was clear he wasn't gonna be fired. Rhule has done just that. I hope things get a little better before it gets worse because this type of move can mess up alot of mental health on the team.
Now, go put a game plan together and execute it to get some Ws.
