An easy Rhule tweet to figure out
- Thread starter cubsker
- Start date
Only one that doesn’t appreciate this has a axe to grind that doesn’t admire TO..
Rhule listening intently can only mean one thing - a return to the I-Formation!
Salad, bread and cheesecake. Where's Rhule steak?? We know TO had fish.
I hope we can get back to at least conference championship games before TO passes. He's looking frail. But then again he's 85.
Aging is a hard fight no one can win we can only fight it with dignity and class. I'm in my seventies and I try to stay as healthy and alert as I can and I only hope I can be as alert as TO is when I reach his age which won't be long for me.
TO is a treasure for the fans of Nebraska football and the state of Nebraska, enjoy having him around.

It isn’t a flattering photo, in the very least. I haven’t seen any pictures of him recently. Hope he is doing okay, health wise.
Regardless, good to see those two chatting. Rhule knows how to navigate Nebraska, clearly.
85 and with the heart issues he’s had he’s living on borrowed time.
As most 85 year old's are, most all of us are putting in our time on this side of life till we see ya on the other side someday.
Ages:
0-20 Youth
20-40 Early Adulthood
40-60 Middle Age
60-80 Golden Years
80+ Bonus Time
In response to the question “what you been up to” I sometimes reply “just sitting around waiting to die”. When I’m deciding whether to buy the 15 year or 30 year warranty shingles I always go for the 15 now….😉
Saw him this summer at some youth sports games (great grandson). He's old...but seemed to be enjoying himself.
Rhule: "Coach, is salad the secret to becoming a college football coaching legend?"
TO: "Yes and here's why..."
GBR 🌽
I spotted for him at Planet Fitness as he repped out 225 on the bench
My dad always tells me he thinks twice before filling up his car all the way now.
That's what I told him but he just kept goingstop....
Bought a push mower at age 30. Replaced the bag at age 43. Needed a new one at age 56 so I figured they last 13 years. I could find that particular bag at only one place in the country and they had only five left. They were $60 each. So...should I buy one to get me to age 69, two to get me to age 82, or three to get me to age 95? I bought two figuring after age 85 I would probably hire someone to do my lawn or be in assisted living (if alive).
As it turned out at age 60 we moved to an acreage that I mow with a tractor and don't use the push mower at all now. So all the worry that went into the decision of how many bags to buy was wasted time and stress.
A friend told the story of driving his 90 year old dad somewhere and in doing so he answered some calls etc while he was rolling down the interstate. He noticed his dad looking at him so he asked “does this bother you?” His dad replied “Nope. I’m ready to go”.
Death will come for us all eventually. Gotta live while we are here. Looks like TO is still enjoying his time on this crazy world of ours at least.
I think he looks pretty good for 85 just saying. Still going out to events.
At 85 if you haven’t assumed room temperature you must be doing something right.
And to consider the profession he was in to boot. The amount of stress coaches endure. I would say TO has definitely won the game they call life.
I heard him respond to someone when they asked him how he had kept his heart disease at bay “I never eat anything that tastes good”.
I had a friend who was about 50 lbs over weight. His wife was always hounding him about taking too much butter or gravy. He developed metastatic lung cancer and died in his 50s. I told some of his other friends at his funeral “he should have eaten more gravy”.
