Reddit (who’s never wrong, right?) is saying she said, ‘**** ‘em up.’
If true, that is awesome.
GD. Did this guy just turn breast cancer awareness month into a motivational speech to kick the **** out of Purdue? What a boss. I wish I could hire him to motivate my kids to do their homework when they get off the bus.
Thanks for posting this. I might be wrong, but I think Rhule really believes and feels every word he spoke. He's very gifted to be able to convey these thoughts so passionately.
I literally thought I was watching a movie when he was giving that speech. Who would have ever thought to turn breast cancer awareness into a pre-game speech? Turned to my wife and said, these speeches seem like some hollywood writer did them. Nuts. Guy has a real gift in that department.
I used to have to public speak for my job. At first I'd write down the whole speech and practice and practice my speech and be petrified when I got in front of people. As I got better at it I would write down a list of points I wanted to make and talk to them, looking at the list occasionally. When I got really good I'd pick a theme, think about it for a few minutes before show time and talk to the theme using standard concepts, phrases and stories I pulled out of a "grab bag". I wasn't nervous because wasn't trying to read off a sheet of paper or note cards, just talking using concepts I had talked about many times before.
It has been interesting to see how Rhule structures his talks. He picks a theme, in this case breast cancer. Then he talks to it using his standard concepts (be a servant, express gratitude, be a good man), phrases (you aren't alone, you are part of a team, someone had your back), and stories we have heard before (his mom's health problems, his mother-in-law dying from breast cancer). The rest of it he just wings it and reads his crowd to see where he is going with it.
Very effective!
Ask Coach Rhule to help ya. By the time he's done your kids will do all the chores. Homework done, do your taxes, run through your fence. Rebuild the fence and be asking for more!!
Never been a huge YouTuber but free NU football stuff from multiple sources is great. This NU-produced series is my favorite though Rhule suggested they would do less next year as recruits get to know us better. That is a mistake. This is a great recruiting tool and great for fans, too.
Many years ago I was invited to play in an NU Regents’ staff golf tournament/luncheon. All good until their then lobbyist Bill Swanson without any warning asked me if I would lead the group in a prayer. Matt Rhule, I am not.
Luckily I knew my wife’s Catholic grace or else we’d probably still be standing there waiting for me to speak
I would like to know if Rhule is adding intensity because he needs to after years of blah football. If his speeches suddenly become less fiery because the team has finally popped their heads all the way out of their butts, it may not make as good of watchin' material.
