Is 2-10 in his last 12 games. Just lost to Ohio today. Talk about missing your window for a big payday.
Matt Campbell
- Thread starter GretnaShawn
- Start date
Just think what some here would have paid him to coach in Lincoln.
Lots of Husker fans wanted him. Not that I blame them, it sort of made sense right at the time Frost got fired.
Exactly, imagine him coaching at a place with expectations.
And this guy passed up USC and the Lions to stay in Ames. Yikes.

Iowa State is a coaching graveyard. It is one of those places you want to leave as soon as you get an offer for a better job.
I didn’t want Matt Campbell but Do we think our current situation is great or something? He’s still 82-59. Much better than 47-45. We ain’t got match room to talk. 🫤
would much MUCH rather have our guy than theirs
Ben Brahmer transferring back next year if he gets canned
Winners win. It's not that he's a bad guy. He just isn't a top tier coach.
Every big time program has fallen into slumps and they revolve around low performance coaches not being able to get the job done.
You got it or you don't. No school's threshold on earth gives coaches the midas touch once they step over it into the coach's office just because they got Suck U up to .600.

You're right. They've both walked into very similar situations at each head coaching stop.
EDIT: Campbell was an assistant coach at Toledo for 3 years before taking that HC gig. While Rhule lost half of the Baylor team due to the criminal allegations that were going on.
Glad we avoided him. Would take Rhule over him 10/10 times.
He had a few good years with Brock Purdy. QBs matter!
Which part? I’m not sure what we have with Rhule. And anyone who is sure about it, good for them I guess
He‘s 43 years old, makes $4M + a year with nearly 5 years left on his contract and has zero expenses. Pretty certain he didn’t miss anything.
Rhule makes $9 mil a year. Tugging Tucker made $9 mil a year. He probably missed between $4-5 million a year. So he is missing something.
He also missed out on failing at a college that was too big for his ability.
The bottom fell out for Iowa State, but Campbell didn't become successful by dumb luck. He's still a good coach. They should let him rebuild the program. They will be back.
Gundy also at okie state. Blown out at home by southern Alabama What is going on there ?
