Matt Rhule and close games
- Thread starter Headcard
- Start date
The biggest issue I can see is we don’t have any alpha players yeah we have a couple cheap talkers, but we have way to many submissive players, we don’t have the Peter brothers types or Tommie Frazier types that wouldn’t stand for someone taking a play or two off. The wanted to control the game no different than Michael Jordan in the final minutes he wanted the ball and he made to plays. Imo I think We’ll have some in the freshman class maybe sophomore class. You can’t coach that. We need more talent plus guys with a attitude that they can back up
Maybe some of it. But he could have got rid of those guys or not put them in position to decide the game (IGC). Also Neyor was his recruit and his drop would have iced the game. It’s just hard to comprehend this right now.
without Frost's players, who made up basically the entire defense, we're a 3 win team
everyone Rhule's brought in is an even bigger loser than them somehow
Yes, he should have gotten rid of those guys but I'm not sure he understood how mentally weak these players really were. Even worse than at Temple or Baylor.
The rest are apparently better than what Rhule has brought in behind them
Same goes for Emmett Johnson
Guy literally runs and hides from “meek bitches”, his own words. Everyone here knows Kong is the most hilarious person to be talking mental toughness. The guy covers the board in period blood every single day.

would you be surprised to hear Barney scored exactly zero receiving TDs this year? I'm guessing yes.
Wright is a good player, I'm not sure why he was buried on the depth chart for the first quarter of the season.
that's 2 guys. a majority of our starters this year were Frost's guys, including the best players on our best unit.
Barney did have three rushing TD’s. He had a nice Freshman year. I think he will really thrive in DH’s offense next year (assuming both are still here).
he had a great freshman year. really fun player to watch
but I'm not sure our record is any different without him.
without Ty and Nash, we'd be in big trouble.
Jacory Barney has 3x the rushing TDs that Emmett Johnson does. Nit-picking dumb stats is useful
this is kong's tactic. Deception by omission, slight of hand.Jacory Barney has 3x the rushing TDs that Emmett Johnson does. Nit-picking dumb stats is useful
"But what about rushing TDs against ranked teams?"
Rhule could be on the downhill side of his career already, if he was ever up to this level of task to begin with. Maybe the Carolina disaster burnt him out. He didn’t exactly take time off. Hopefully not, we’ll see.
I guess you forgot to mention Barney scored on rushing TDs.
Injuries to Hill? Needed time to learn the defense?
You surprised that 6th year DLs are the best players? And did you forget about all the good young DLs we have?
Does Rhule get any credit for any of that?
The point is I’m not sure he influenced our record at all like frosts players obviously did.
Okay if you disagree.
that wasn't your original argument. You just update it when your **** falls through
Here’s my original argument, btw:
Just a couple posts up. Right there for all to see.
Be careful not to hurt yourself twisting yourself into a pretzel avoiding giving Rhule credit.
Me pointing out the obvious doesn’t make me in love with frost
His guys were our best and most consistent players this year
Wasn’t Tommi hill a frost recruit too?
Results have been crappy but there is improvement. Rhule is a much better coach than frost but I think he's just slightly above average overall. We'll see if we can make the famous 3rd year bump. Maybe having roster limits and getting rid of some dead weight might be a good thing. We got some good young players.
