That’s why he’s 77-89. That’s why he’s left 54% of his games as head coach a loser. Hes coached 4 teams and only has a winning record at one of those places, the lowest one

what’s worse, is he believes what he’s saying. Ask him about what went wrong with the panthers, he will blame a million things but himself

The guy can’t be any worse. People like him don’t get better. They find excuses. He’s got one. That’s all he needs. Houston Nutt 2.0

hey Matt, did you take a salary cut to help NIL?

hey Matt, did you only lose to teams that spend more money then you?

stop blaming NIL for your mistakes

We all know this is his last season but he is also publicly bitching about the program and potentially making it a less desirable job, not only by being so lame at coaching but by also bitching non-stop that NU simply won't pony up.

The only thing that matter is that its a desirable job for Brent Vigen
I know fans will lose their minds because he has not "won at a P4" school but he looks more more and more like a Cigs...

If he has a typical season this year he will be like 75-15 or something like that in his career.

I would take him in a heartbeat.

To exactly nobody’s surprise


Hey Matt, you have more money and better facilities than Minnesota. And every year the Gophers kick your butt. Guess what they have that we don’t: a coach who recruits 2 and 3 stars and then coaches them up over 4-5 years. And a coach who instills a culture of discipline—you have to beat MN, they won’t hand you the game in the 4Q like you always do.

Husker sports that are thriving:
Men’s basketball and baseball
Women’s volleyball, softball, and basketball

No more excuses. The reason football sucks is terrible coaching…

Thank-you for this response. I think it covers everything that is wrong with Matt the Hat.

I mean, all coaches (all people at all jobs) always blame everything else, so I don't really care about that all that much.

What I care about is that it is SOOOOO clear that he will not get it done here, not to the extent that us fans want/desire. At BEST he will be exactly what he is now. At worst, he will be 4-5 win coach.

We all know that so just make the ******* change.

Rich people got rich and stay rich because they value money and do not want to send it into a loser program. They know a crap investment when they see one. They can also see through the bullsh$t lies of a snake oil salesman. Sorry Matt but unless you manage to put a quality product on the field this year you are toast. Who even listens to him anymore?

I wonder how Ravi and Damon will defend this. Damon will feed listeners a word casserole mixed with "you don't understand this like I do" and "Coach Rhule and I understand this like no other". Ravi will use his YMCA coaching experience as his soapbox.
Damon will do the "Listen, listen, listen, there are things, things that I can't say just yet BUT just let it play out and you will see the things that I know are true but I can't go into detail just yet"

I think there is a shift in perception towards these FCS guys.

Given that Vigen has turned down both Wazzu and Oregon State, he knows that too.

If there’s one thing I’m confident that’s happening. Is that all the big time schools are waiting for Matt’s words of wisdom on NIL and taking that back to their donors. “Matt Rhule said the market is X, we got a have more to stay ahead of 7 win Nebraska” and just like that they get 50% more on their budget.

Every other Nebraska coach faces the same headwinds - but they win with what they have. Also Nebraska would still likely be in the top 20 for NIL - so play like it.

All of what you said are fair criticisms. I'm usually one who dumps on Rhule and I won't here . But your last question is one of the best ones to ask.

Did you only lose to teams that spend more money than you? If not...

I don't mind him at all but he LOVES telling you he knows stuff without saying what it is...
Damon is an extremely intelligent and highly perceptive man.

However, other extremely intelligent and highly perceptive men also have skill competency crafting statements involving diverse vocabulary and a blend of unique concepts that in conclusion, say nothing of substance at times.

If you are not a highly perceptive and extremely intelligent man, let me clue you into what I'm referring to. Read the body paragraph again: Notice that I wrote one run-on sentence of complete utter bull$chitte.

That is all.
