Iowa week PC Notes

In case you haven't noticed, he's become our latest "resident blow hard, homer, sunshine pumper, how dare you ever question the greatest football staff of all time, they can do no wrong" guy.

I would just stop at " blow hard"

Really seems to sum this guy up.

I've never liked that we play Iowa on Black Friday....only because it's usually cold and crappy weather which benefits them greatly. Same with Wisconsin - do we have something where we have to play them the second to last game for the past 4 years?

People I know who were tight with Trev say Fickle was the backup plan. Fickle didn’t say yes to Wisconsin until after we had reached an agreement with Rhule. That is fact. Inquiries to gauge interest were made I believe to multiple agents of other coaches but Rhule was always a Trev’s first choice because of his reputation of as a relationship and program builder. His network in Texas high school coaching was a big deal.

I thought Trev originally wanted Leipold, but President Ted Carter "suggested" Rhule would be a better choice and facilitated the initial interest and eventually the hire. Carter knew Rhule from back when Carter ran the Navy Academy and Rhule coached at Temple. Then of course Ted bailed for OSU leaving Trev with his second choice for HC.

And an Ohio State fan. I put him on ignore. Much better.

With his latest post of a recruiting tweet it’s clear he’s the oft banned Huskerfaninwisci/recruiting analyst-national/bigtimebooster.

The secondary will be way better next year. Coop resigned in July and Butler got here at the beginning of August and didn't even have a full month before the 1st game to really work with them and learning his system on the fly doesn't take the place of working with them a whole offseason. Had Butler been here for the winter conditioning and the spring game, the secondary would been light years better than we are seeing now. Butler's teaching style and philosophy is much different that Cooper's was and Butler is teaching Pro Style which Coop didn't. For example, what was mentioned during the game is each Saftey has their own scheme which is NFL, not the college ranks. These guys have had to learn A LOT this year on the fly. Butler know's what he's doing as he coached the top secondary in the NFL all 5 years he was with the Bills and incidentally during that same time all 5 years, the Bills boasted the best defense in the NFL so think about that. Step away from the ledge.

The reason Butler is here is, he wanted the vacant coordinators position with the Bills but went to someone else so he left and we got a boon and think he was promised the coordinators postion here when TW decides to leave if he even does. What I'm afraid of, is when and if TW ever leaves he takes the entire staff with him and that is something to be kind of afraid of. Don't think for one moment that when Butler was annouced as our new secondary coach the powerhouses didn't immediately take notice of the top secondary coach in the league 5 years in a row leaves them and comes here. I bet you anything, after the season the big boys are gonna try and get him away from us regardless of this year as they know the situation he came into but not worried as they know what he's capable of.

In case you haven't noticed, he's become our latest "resident blow hard, homer, sunshine pumper, how dare you ever question the greatest football staff of all time, they can do no wrong" guy.

him and @headcard could start a hurricane were they to do their Matt Rhule circlejerk in the same room.

We’re playing almost the exact same guys on offense. The difference is number of snaps and how we’re using them. The play calling now fits their strengths and the line calls are more logical and easier to execute it appears to me. Dana has helped Dylan immensely. Hell we’re still running Haarberg out there for his obligatory 2 run plays per game.

I hope against Iowa we get a big play by bringing in Haarberg in the shot gun, fake a zone read QB run, then pull back and toss it to a wide open receiver. We have been so totally predictable in how we use HH when we bring him in that the situation is perfect for a play action pass from HH

That’s so obvious that having him keep it is almost the trick play

I must be an idiot. What does this even mean (other than he literally doesn't know a bunch of our players) and why is it a great quote?

Possibly sitting on a goldmine of untapped talent going forward. But I could be reading way too much into it.

Do not underestimate the positive effect this has on the team at large. They're well aware if coaches' pets are passing over other players based on things other than performance.

Sounds like our leadership on offense was a cancer. Wish it would have been rooted out much sooner.

Thats what happens with the right guys when they are challenged. Someone who worked that hard to get back from injury has it in him.

We'll see if he'll ever be as good as he could be. Most of these players had it too easy while failing.
