He looks at this as part of his duties, not just some extracurricular activity. The more familiar the general public is with him and their ability to get a feel for the kind of person he is, and what Nebraska is about only helps to get the right kind of players here to build the program. It’s a cheat code. Is there another coach out there half as good at this?Thanks for posting that. Rhule is a master communnicator.
Everything is cupcakes and roses when you're winning but he's done a good job of selling NU.He looks at this as part of his duties, not just some extracurricular activity.

He's accessible but he's also likeable and a GREAT interview for the talking heads. His early morning schedule allows them to get him on for the east coast morning talk shows as well. He's promoting NU AND he's promoting Matt Rhule. Bo would probably still be at NU if he would have had Rhule's personality and people skills. People would have grumbled about the embarrassing losses but we wouldn't have fired him. Bo worked his ass off much like Rhule but his paranoia and inability to control his anger were his undoing.He made himself extremely accessible last year too. His calendar has to be crazy - but he is an excellent promoter of the brand and winning helps get to a broader audience. Fortunate we have him and another reason why if the team can start winning the momentum will build exponentially.

I listened to a successful comedian one time be interviewed about how he promoted himself. He lived on the west coast but would get up at an insane hour to to do the early morning radio talk shows on the east coast then stay up late to do the late night shows on the west coast. He did that for years to build his "brand".He ain’t hard to find
For sure major differences in attitude between Pelini and Rhule. Bo always viewed the media as his adversary. And for Bo, fans were just a necessary annoyance he had to tolerate.He's accessible but he's also likeable and a GREAT interview for the talking heads.
