Matt Rhule Monday Press Conference

I want to think it’s better to not be rash with changing coaches, particularly head coaches. Perhaps that is the Solich/Pelini effect.

But we are 1.75 seasons into this tenure, and the HC just realized that his entire plan isn’t good enough, and he needs outside consulting to buy a clue about what to do next. He was hired on the notion that he’s a proven talent at building programs, but he can’t recognize problems before his nose is rubbed in it. And then he needs consultants on how to clean his nostrils.
I think you’re taking that view to an extreme and I believe in his heart that he knows what the problem is. I expect Satt is going to be allowed to seek a new opportunity after the season. 😉

Holgorsen Now in Lincoln

Holgorson has probably forgotten more football than dumb ass Satt even knows
Sarr’s problem no doubt isn’t that he doesn’t know the X’s and O’s It’s that he can’t apply what he knows.

I listened to a former NFL coach explain why coordinators who get fired kept getting hired by other teams. He said that calling defenses and offensive plays is a very specific skill that few coaches can handle so even if a guy gets canned his experience as a play caller is going to land him a new gig.

Truly unbelievable how overreactive some of you are

Fire this guy, fire that kid, fire him!

We are less than two weeks removed from outplaying a top 3 team in their own stadium on national television with a hobbled true freshman QB at the helm -- a game we deserved to win where the cards were stacked against us from the outset.

This is big boy football. The players are all good. The coaches are all good. The refs suck, but what can you do?

Now Dana Holgoerson of all people is the savior? LOL

Every game left on the schedule is winnable. Raiola needs to throw the damn ball. THROW THE DAMN BALL. Forget your stats as they are already in the tank. Throw the ball to your receivers and give them a chance to make a play. #17 is a good guy to look for when in doubt.
This reaction has been building since last fall. Our offens most notably our QB play was inexcusably bad last year. His play calling against IU and now UCLA was excruciating and not fair to our freshman QB.

Charlie’s defense was underperforming against good teams. Satt’s offense has underperformed albeit for a season and a half. Yeah our QBs sucked last year and we’re starting a freshman this year but Satt clearly isn’t getting it done. I’ve posted before that I don’t think Satt is fixable. That said, you have to let Rhule try to fix the situation. We’ll see if he can get Satt to adjust or if he decides to can him this winter.
His body of work is abysmal. He’s not fixable.

This is not even close to being the same thing. The offense and defense were still producing at a very high level.

Current state of affairs has us as one of the worst teams in the Big Ten for the last 10 years straight.

Sure looks like he is still defending Satterfield. The stubborn bast@rd will go under if that is maintained.
I didn’t get that drift at all from what he said. He clearly stated that 18 points isn’t good enough and that what’s wrong is being examined. Every company or academic institution I’ve seen bring in outside consultants did it as a prelude to heads rolling.

Solution

F that, it's obvious Rhule will never be the guy, get rid of his ass and let the new AD get the coach he wants
It’s not going to happen. We’re pot committed. Nor would I want us to clean house. There are some good things he’s doing but he either needs to can Satt or take ownership of the offense. He said repeatedly that 18 points isn’t good enough. We need to give him a chance to fix it.

I'll take a crack at it coach!!!

Your OL coach sucks
Your special teams coach sucks
Your offensive coordinator sucks

That'll be fiddy thousand for my analysis. You're welcome
Maybe it's a way for him to go to his coaches and say, hey I've had someone else look at it and I've got to fire you.

Essentially he's giving himself an excuse to fire his friends so he can maybe keep his friends.

College Football is a huge business and we bring in too much money to be this bad.

People like to bag on "Coach Prime", but he fired all of his coordinators after last year, and got rid of over 30 players...and they have been showing improvement this year. He doesn't put up with mediocrity.
Colorado is tied for 2nd place in the Big 12 right now….they can make the championship game. Win that and they are in the playoffs!! You can say that right now CU is getting the slightest sniff of the playoffs. Yes it helps they moved to the Big 12 which is a shell of what it was before but the point stands.
