Matt Rhule Lays Out What He Is Looking for in the Next Defensive Coordinator for Nebraska Football

 

[Mack In Motion]

Fair enough. I agree the fit was not right.

This part:

"While the numbers were good, in the league and in this stadium, you better stop the run and be able to run the football.”

It's time to do that, if that's our identity .

It's past time to recruit for that.

It's time to develop that.

I believe this was said at (or near) his introductory presser.

Don't talk about it. Do it.

Some people are talkers, others are doers.

It came down to Matt Rhule is a Beta, Butler is an Alpha...pretty simple. If MR has a problem with Butler telling him he doesn't have the players to play the way that he wants, that's on MR, not on Butler who had been there for a year. MR is blaming Butler for not having the guys play physical enough and Butler was telling him, I don't have the guys to play that style of defense, which he clearly didn't. That's on MR and everyone that preceded him imo. MR is in charge of recruiting both sides of the ball and in charge of developing those kids. Not the 1st year DC.

Matt is never gonna get it.
If he wants to play physical defense he needs to stop with the little guys like Buford and Hartzog.

They have collapsed down the stretch for two years now. That’s not completely Butler’s fault. This is just more of Rhule preaching physicality and then recruiting small slot receivers instead of OL and DL.

It’s going on year 4 now and Rhule still is trying to fit square pegs into round holes.

He keeps trying to do what worked in the big12/aac
