That guy is the biggest phony fraud in coaching and he's about to parlay what little he's done into a 10 million a year job at a true blue blood program. Unreal
I like rhule, he just did'nt seem to say he isn't leaving...so I want to be as prepared as possible...

He's not leaving when he's now actively recruiting the Penn State decommits and transfers. What he might be doing however is leaving open the possibility of leaving in order just to get boosters and alums to invest more money for his recruiting purposes. That's what seems to be on his mind from today's presser.

A few dominoes have to fall before they consider Rhule. He’s not their first choice but I’d still say there’s a 30-40% chance he leaves. Based on the opinion that PSU will strike out on their first or second choice.

He will take the Penn State job if offered. 100 percent. If you don't believe that then you don't understand his background. You guys can do better.
Definitely, we’ll pay jim harbaugh 15 million and he’ll hover around 500 until the ad gives him one last year so he finds out how to cheat better than everyone and wins several nattys for us

Yes it is excellent time for him to bring up his desire for more $ for the roster. He would be a fool not to!

I appreciate your thoughts here. I first saw the offer to the former PSU running back commit and wondered why Rhule would do that if he was entertaining the idea of taking the PSU job. Then - he doesn’t say anything committal or not about the job. But what he did say was - I want more money for players. So reading between the lines he’s using this as an opportunity to improve his current team.

Ped State will not go after Ruhle. I just do not see it. Going after a coach who is 17-14 and about .500 for his career smells of the Bo gets fired and Mr. Rodgers gets hired debacle here in past years. They would be going backward. The AD would be tarred and feathered if that blew up. I could see Drinkwitz being a candidate. Cignetti of course. Best guess is Matt is trolling for an extension and a raise.

Penn St has a nice little program, but come on. You better hope he loves that school, because it would be hard taking a lesser job.

There is a downside to this drama. NU could stumble down the stretch...limp to a 7-5 type record, in which case, PSU would never hire him. Then NU have to face the possibility of being stuck with a guy whose ceiling here may be around 7 wins.

There are a few upsides.

One - NU goes on a heater and finishes 10-2 or 11-1, making it to the playoffs. PSU fans and boosters warm up to the idea of bring Rhule back, and they hire him away. The NU job would them be one of the premium openings in the country.

Or, NU goes on that heater and finishes 10-2 or 11-1 and makes the playoff. Rhule decides to stay and try to build on this success. Any NU fan would have to be happy to see him return in this scenario.

I gotta think PSU would only be interested in Rhule if NU were a playoff team...perhaps a playoff bubble team.

Shouldn't you guys be looking for a head coach shortly? Curious why you're so worried about ours when yours is up next lol

He would be leaving for a bon blue blood. Only reason you're a blue blood is due to the leather helmet days then Bo, who couldn't win a national title. Needed to act like the kgb to finally get there. And yes, we would have spanked your asses 34-7 in 97. Im being nice by giving you 7 btw
