A Closer Look at Matt Rhule's 11-3 season
- Thread starter thall_
- Start date
Quick google search shows the Art Briles owned Bill Snyder so I wouldn’t put too much stock into Kansas State being a powerhouse during Snyder’s twilight years.
In fact, Baylor finished with a better record in their season with an interim (between Briles & Rhule after the scandal) at 7-6 with a bowl game, than Snyder did the year preceding Klieman at 5-7 with no bowl game. There’s no narrative there, that’s just the truth.
If you are choosing to ignore the situation Ruhle walked into with 45 scholarship players, that is an agenda. Not sure why, but an agenda for sure.
no worries, quick google search (I can link you if you need) shows Baylor continued to out recruit Kansas State during the scandal
you’re heavily invested into the emotional aspect, which is making it difficult for you to understand the data I’m spoon-feeding you
GTFO out with that. You are ignoring the facts and for some reason keep pushing this ridiculous narrative of yours. Ruhle took over a program rocked by scandal with 45 scholarship players and 1 commit when he took over. That is a situation MUCH worse than you are giving credit for and MUCH worse than what Klieman inherited. And he won faster and bigger than Klieman has to date. Which is why NFL teams came after Ruhle and no one is after Klieman.
wait your boy klieman couldn't out-recruit a team coming off a near death penalty scandal & amidst a coaching change?
incredible self own from the board dipshit
Guess not, and that’s a valid concern on Klieman.
who knew that recruiting in Kansas was harder than recruiting in Texas.
try to control your emotions this go around, bud
Unfortunately, “GTFO” and more baseless crying isn’t a valid argument.
how about we try to find some common ground instead?
Rhule is the most proven coach we’ve ever hired, and we will experience more success with him than we have the past decade. Do you think he gets us over the hump and into the conference championship eventually?
Sorry that actually presenting facts is such a problem for you. But it sure does seem to be getting in the way of your bizarre agenda.
To answer this hypothetical question. Who knows what the divisions, etc will even look like?
Yes, if the current East/West setup were to stay, I believe Ruhle would have us winning this division consistently. However, with USC and UCLA (and who knows who else) joining soon, divisions may be a thing of the past and simply being better than the Wisconsin's and Iowa's of the world, which I am confident we would be under MR, may not be enough to get us in the Championship Game anymore.
I’m glad you mentioned the scholarship bit, as it illuminated how amazing it was that Kansas State still recruited worse and won fewer games than Baylor before Klieman
I firmly believe that we will retake control of the Iowa rivalry, and am cautiously optimistic that we will begin a win streak against both Minnesota and Wisconsin. I hope at this time next year we’re not rationalizing a 5 win season though I accept that could be part of the process.
Rhule has coached DL in college and OL in the NFL, so I really hope he’s willing to hit the portal hard to build a line. The past multiple years, Nebraska has been a decent OL away from being a really good team
available data:
Matt Rhule is 4 games over .500 as a P5 head coach
incredible self own from the board retard
I am not going to bang on Rhule because he took the money, but I do think there are coaches who are completely happy working as college coaches and have no desire to work in the NFL.
About the money thing. I can remember going to Mariner games against the Rangers 2-3 years after A-Rod took one of the first really big contracts and ran off to Texas. A huge chunk of the crowd would go ape sh*t every time Rodriguez stepped up to the plate. Some just came unglued. I always thought everyone of those screaming motherfluffers would give their right arm for the money A-Rod got from the Rangers. By the way and I think this is largely due to his personality, A-Rod was liked when he was a Mariner, but Seattle fans LOVED Griffey.
Took all day and this is what you come up with after telling me to keep my emotions in check?
Need me to link a google search for the term “self own?”
Sad, pathetic stuff here. Do better.
> ranked team
> go into a half with a lead
> get beat up in the second half
I hate being right
