If it was Butler why wouldn’t it be announced already?
No question we have lower expectations than they do.
Looking at their schedule I think they start 2-4. They might fold. I wouldn't bet anything more than soda money on FSU winning more games than NU.Would you bet NU will win more games than FSU next season?
Not as a head coach but he can coach offense.Malzahn was an hour away from getting fired at UCF, so he quit and went to FSU. That dude doesn't have the cachet he once had.
Exactly. He couldn't walk off the job here until his job there was securedThis
A soft Pac 12 team just walked through a B1G schedule unbeatenNot necessarily lower expectations, we just play in a tougher conference. The B1G and SEC will continue to separate from the little 2 as time goes on. Due to weaker competition in the ACC, for White, it'll be a great place to elevate his stock.
Because it’s probably not himIf it was Butler why wouldn’t it be announced already?
They’re the first to know who is hired in house or outside. You can’t be this thickI hope it isn't Butler.... the recruits don't know unless it is Butler. Their tweets were encouraged to save face with the fans and recruits. They don't have a clue if it's an outside hire.
Year Three is the new Year One!A new OC and WR coach. A new DC and DL coach. Maybe more coaching changes on the way. Tons of players leaving. Followed by a ton of new portal guys coming in. Going to be like a whole new team. My question is this: does this mean we are kind of back to square one and we should look at next season almost as if this is Rhule being granted a Mulligan and a whole new do-over, or is this next year a do or die year where Rhule has to have a really good season or he is out?
Next year is an 8 win year or the seat gets hot. No mulligans.A new OC and WR coach. A new DC and DL coach. Maybe more coaching changes on the way. Tons of players leaving.

Bookmarked.Next year is an 8 win year or the seat gets hot. No mulligans.
You can’t say “you know you’re not” 9 months before the season starts 🤣Bookmarked.
I hope you’re right
But I know you’re not
Hell no, we were promised magic in Year 3.A new OC and WR coach. A new DC and DL coach. Maybe more coaching changes on the way. Tons of players leaving.

He could have been assigned desk duty and definitely didn't need to be on the Husker production of their signing day stuffExactly. He couldn't walk off the job here until his job there was secured
There is a post in this very thread that he won’t be fired if we go 7-5 next yearYou can’t say “you know you’re not” 9 months before the season starts 🤣
I’m sure he won’t be fired too if we win 7. But that doesn’t mean the heat won’t be on.There is a post in this very thread that he won’t be fired if we go 7-5 next year
The overwhelming sentiment will be 7>6 and the progress is evident
They aren't gonna be his players, so I agree. Wish him well but he's ex-NU now.He could have been assigned desk duty and definitely didn't need to be on the Husker production of their signing day stuff
Your descriptions are a bit hyperbolic. They had a 1 point victory at home vs Ohio St, and a 3 point victory on the road at 5-7 Wisconsin. I wouldn't consider that walking through a Big Ten schedule.A soft Pac 12 team just walked through a B1G schedule unbeaten
I don’t think the B1G is as tough as many want to believe
Perhaps ucf will put some buyout money back in our coffers?I’m sure he won’t be fired too if we win 7. But that doesn’t mean the heat won’t be on.
Please tell me what Nebraska has accomplished in the last 20+ years, oh easy answer No Conference Championship, No BCS or CFP appearance. So before you call FSU a dumpster fire check your own house!Bye, good luck at the dumpster fire FSU. You will be looking for another job this time next year.

You just went 2-10 with an arguably better roster and coach stfu.Please tell me what Nebraska has accomplished in the last 20+ years, oh easy answer No Conference Championship, No BCS or CFP appearance. So before you call FSU a dumpster fire check your own house!
what is an acceptable record for FSU to have next year for there not to be a coaching change?Please tell me what Nebraska has accomplished in the last 20+ years, oh easy answer No Conference Championship, No BCS or CFP appearance. So before you call FSU a dumpster fire check your own house!

Touchy, are we? Why are you here, other than to troll. Good luck with Tony, Terrence and Evan. Move forward.Please tell me what Nebraska has accomplished in the last 20+ years, oh easy answer No Conference Championship, No BCS or CFP appearance.

would be interesting hire. I've watched them with times they have only 1 or 2 guys with their hand in the dirt. lots of confusion up front to block and created a lot of sacks.Looks like Nebraska is trying to work out a deal to bring in SMU DC coach Scott Symons as DC.This would be a great hire.
My gut feeling is he will get two more years at least, even if things go badly next year.A new OC and WR coach. A new DC and DL coach. Maybe more coaching changes on the way. Tons of players leaving.

I think he has to win next year. With the money he's still owed from the NFL, his buyout doesn't change all that much from now until year 5. I think it's only a million or two per year until the Panther money disappears. Most of the buyout we would owe is in those last 4 years of his contract. I could be wrong but I don't think his buyout now is anywhere near the 58 million total value of his contract. It's still at least in the upper 30s but not 58 today IMO.My gut feeling is he will get two more years at least, even if things go badly next year.
He's short on P4 experience and has never stayed long at any stop. Obviously he's WAY more qualified than Bo was when we hired him. There would be a steep learning curve for him in the B1G. I would prefer Robinson but Rhule is a defensive guy. He'll figure it out.would be interesting hire.

We have hit rock bottom. About 10 times.Please tell me what Nebraska has accomplished in the last 20+ years, oh easy answer No Conference Championship, No BCS or CFP appearance. So before you call FSU a dumpster fire check your own house!
Yeah, that could be. I wonder if Dannen is the sort of AD who will tell him the expectations before the year or stay silent. Having Trev instead of Dannen definitely inserts more uncertainty. In retrospect Rhule should have hired a Tony White-like OC outside his coaching tree from the beginning, and likely turned over the roster more immediately. He has a shorter runway now to remake this program into what he wants.I think he has to win next year.

Does this reset the year 3 magic season? I don’t want to wait another two years if it does.Hell no, we were promised magic in Year 3.
He tried, led the nation in turnovers.Year Three is the new Year One!
Rhule should’ve done this the moment he got here
Absolute bullshit how badly he pissed away the last two seasons
