Not sure any head coach in the NFL had worse QB's than Rhule so it's hard to judge him by his time there.
Bridgewater
Darnold
Mayfield
Yuck.

I love how you talk like you know the truth. You're full of sh it like most on here. 3-9 more lies
you hire the guy who you think will put you in the best position 5 years from now and if other big name programs who are willing to pay more come calling you deal with it then
nothing would make me happier than Texas, OU, Penn st, Florida coming after our coach in 5 years
If Rhule came here, killed it, and moved to another job, that would be a fine situation. We'd be back on the map.
It's like worrying about your QB lighting things on fire as an underclassmen, winning the Heisman, and going to the NFL.
Yep. Sucks to lose a great player, but that means you killed it while he was here.

No you hire the guy with the best ability that actually fits your program. And there were better options on the table who fit that mold. I'm not saying Rhule would be a bad hire, but it is rather mediocre. And again, this is all just speculation at this point.
IF he takes the job hopefully he wins enough that somebody else tries to hire him away…..
Nope just because a guy is a Nebraska alum doesn't mean he fits the head coach position here. I thought we learned that lesson with Frost. 3-9 Mickey would not be the right guy.
You really think Mickey would stay here for 5-6 years as coach-in-waiting to take over when he's 60 years old?
I think Mickey could be happy as the assistant head / wr coach at Nebraska making a Million per year until he retired …..
Scott Frost definitely did. There's a 'day in the life' video on youtube of Peterson on a regular fall camp day. He worked from 6 am to 9 pm non-stop. 15 hours a day is very typical for a Power 5 head coach. It's a job for grinders. Not guys that like fishing, hunting, partying, and chasing co eds.

Nah, I’m not a simp that still wishes we had a coach that was looking for any job that would take him. Where’s he coaching now? I always forget.
Rhule was 9th on my list of guys who had proven head coach ability and looked like they were available at the time, right next to BoB. That list was based on ability, but with the fit factor, I think he’s even lower than that. Some of you are making too big of a deal based on speculation. I think it's a mediocre hire, but I will be fine with it if that's what we go with.
I think Mickey as HC or WR coach is a super important factor in NU ever getting this thing turned around.

Sharpe is a buffoon. Head Frost cheerleader, and never covered the “coaching malpractice” he spewed 6 plus years ago.

Thank God you’re not the one doing the hiring. Better stick to your class C high school position coach gig……
Come here. come in nice a close. He can't hurt you anymore.
Look, him looking for other jobs...it's not your fault. Riley_the_Crutch...it's not your fault.
Don't forget dodgeball with the assistants, and bowling with Cam Jurgens and Ethan Piper.
I've posted a list of 12 experienced coaches and he was 9th on my list in terms of ability.
Assuming Rhule I had heard that he likes big recruiting bases and likes to go for speed (at least that was his strategy at Baylor). I think we see him really ramp up NIL money spending on players and let's MJ really work the national recruiting while he finds the 500-mile radius guys or as I like to call it the "state of Nebraska" players.

There is a portion of the fanbase that can't handle the idea of a coach coming here and EVER looking to leave.
Of course, they spend all day looking online for other jobs but...
Why are you getting so defensive about this? For all we know this is all just speculation like the 10 other threads that proclaimed who the head coach would be and turned out wrong. Until we hear an actual statement, that's exactly what I'm treating this as.
This is ********!!
I planned to be outside stacking some firewood, instead, I'm forced to be here so I don't miss anything.
And now we cross our fingers if MJ sticks around that will really ramp up our recruiting.
