Rhule reminds me of Frost so far
- Thread starter Clevinger
- Start date
Thanks for keeping track so I don’t have to. I know I can count on you to keep us informed moving forward.
can you believe that baptism quote?
lmao the preacher jokes write themselves around here!
You know what I can’t believe? This is probably your weakest and most obvious troll attempt yet. And that’s says a ton!
You can do better. I just know it.
I took that to mean at the HC position specifically.. (meaning MJ)
Just like CU has a black head coach who maybe relates better to the players and recruits etc?
I think we would have been better off with MJ personally, but there is no way to prove that, and what has been done can't be undone.
For now, Rhule has to find a way to get the offense fixed fast, or things can start unraveling pretty quick.
Some fans will be patient, others patience have pretty much run out. You can only reboot the computer so many times before people get fed up and move on to something else.
Remember when our starting QB got hurt against Colorado in Frost’s first year and we had to start the backup in the next game against Troy?
Strike two. Try to be less obvious. Your indignation about what the coach says vs what he does is where it’s at for you. This approach just doesn’t land.
I am being perfectly honest.
that video is stunning for someone who's been referring to rhule as "Preacher" for 10ish days.
very funny
You and me have a way different idea of what is stunning. Are you suggesting Rhule was behind it? Cuz I don’t get that sense at all.
those guys have been teammates for, what, 4 years?
Preacher takes over and all of a sudden they're baptizing each other
like I said, way too on the nose. feel like I'm being punk'd.
Except this years starter is an absolute disaster so far. Not much else can be said.
Frost was at least good at scripting the first offensive series of games. He was actually awesome at that. Unfortunately, he was the worst coach I've ever seen when it came to half-time/in-game adjustments. Once the other team made adjustments after the first series, he pissed his pants every time.
With Rhule, I haven't seen one good thing yet. He should be giving his entire paycheck to Tony White, because White has been carrying this entire team so far.

60+ new players huh? So we pulled a Dion and flipped over half the roster? Your numbers seem a little inflated, unless you're counting Walk ons as well? There's literally 2 defenders on defense that play meaningful snaps that weren't on the team last year (Chief and Lenhardt). Maybe Sherman and Juedy, but they have been extremely underwhelming and I haven't noticed them much during the game, so maybe they're in there. Same for the offense (Sims and Kemp). Everyone else has experienced losing in the most epic ways possible. This isn't a fix that will happen in one season.
Weren't you the guy that said if Purdy came into the game first during a blowout that it meant HH was actually number 2? I'm curious as to what you think now that HH came in first during a blow out. I'm assuming you changed your stance on that. It's pretty easy to move the goal posts to fit your narratives.
Tom Osborne and the gang did that. Frost just said “need some breaks” and “we’re close” with dip in
If you wanted that you should've been hollering for Dion when he was available. Don't just jump on the bandwagon now that you see he's having success. It's crazy to see the meltdown on this page after the consensus was that year 1 was going to be a tough rebuild year. Now that it's here, a majority of you still can't accept it even though you predicted it 😂
We were plenty athletic enough to beat Minni and CU.
Nah, just had the benefit of unearned benefit of the doubt due to his history here.
Not exactly how it went. I don't think you want to get him started on HH actually being #2.
Turnovers, mostly by one guy (nod to Grant for the fumble to help lose the game to Minnesota whereas if he just goes down with the ball, Nebraska likely runs out the clock and wins). Athleticism and mental toughness are not the same thing.
Smooth brained maybe. I really did always feel his face looked like a little bit of down syndrome creeping in.
If we can't beat a 1-1 Northern Illinois team at home with our backup QB, then Rhule will start to remind me of Frost.
should employ the Belichick protocol. One-word responses. Don't elaborate...
Wasn't really a "just go down" situation. He lowered his shoulder and bounced off the first guy, got a couple yards and the safety that Piper barely tickled on his block comes from behind to knock the ball out. Not saying wasn't a bad fumble but 100% was not a just a "fall down" type of play
If I had to make a prediction today, I'd say that there's less than a 50% chance that Rhule will still be the HC in 5 years. The main reason for this is that, like Frost, Riley, Callahan, etc., he hired his "buddies" instead of getting the best he could.
White is a good choice IMO. At least he had some success before coming to Nebraska (lead Syracuse to Top 20 defense in final 2 years), but Satterfield is a head scratcher and the weakest link, IMO.
Most coaches hire people they know well. You can call them their buddies if you want, But why would you hire someone you don’t know? It’s not important whether they are their buddies anyway. It’s important if they can coach and recruit and not, say, assault their wives, be drunk all the time, have sex with prostitutes and get caught, Have affairs with the wife of a prominent booster..…
Shhh.. Everyone is expecting a win Saturday.. which is why I'm going opposite and expecting a loss..
You are correct it was remarkable how they’d most often score on the first drive. But that was like having the grand finale at the start of the show
If Callahan would have dismissed his friend Cosgrove at DC position I think he would have had a pretty successful run here! But who cares if you can put up 40 points if you give up 52
