Agreed. He could not have made a bigger blunder.Terrible look for Rhule. Makes this year much tougher than it needed to be.

yeahSpoiler alert Dylan may wanna come here and have a starting job.
Remember a couple years ago when the Huskers center couldn’t get the shotgun snap to AMart and he would get killed back there. No we have a center who can snap but a quarterback who fumbles snaps. Yikes!
Thats from 2022, broRhule wanted to hire Jake Peetz as QB Coach, but Satterfield still would have been OC. Originally Satterfield was going to be OC and TE Coach.
We're too busy overspending on head coachesI don't necessarily disagree, but Colorado got 4, Wisconsin got 3, and Minnesota got 3 WRs out of the portal who were all rated higher than the 1 we got. We keep hearing about our NIL money, but based on the evidence we are not really serious when it comes to paying what it takes now to get high end players in here.
Regarding QBs, Sanders kid got at least 1.4-1.6 million, while Sims is listed as having gone for 83-103k on various websites. There is a HUGE disconnect between the average fan and the boosters of substance and the admin and maybe even coaches on what it means to be serious about winning games in 2023.
It wouldn't shock me if Nebraska finds some miracle out of their ass to get D. Raiola to change his mind on signing day and he ends up here. Desperation makes people do strange things.

It was right after Rhule was hired . Peetz was going to be the QB coach but stayed in the NFL with the Rams , if he hires Peetz maybe a different QB is sought after in the portal.Thats from 2022, bro
Quite the opposite, actually. Hoping NIL $$$ can overcome two decades of shitty teams, shitty coaching, and shitty players' attitudes, thus "buying" wins we can't earn the right way, is the ultimate loser mentality.BS. This is a defeatist, loser mentality.
Yep but you know that's happily been destroyed now. No more "dear old U" just show me the money.Quite the opposite, actually.

No idea what you are on about. Try it again in 36 hours.Yep but you know that's happily been destroyed now. No more "dear old U" just show me the money.
People are cheering it like that was the ONLY way it could've been done.
And then people question me when I say its not fun anymore.

Maybe we can get him to Tucker this thing?think of it from Rhule's shoes.. you just got ousted from your NFL gig.. you don't really want to come to Nebraska, but they are going to throw obscene amounts of money at you, and your wife is twisting your arm.. Ok, we'll go do the Nebraska thing.. take their money, tell them what they want to hear.. see what happens.. f it, I'm already set for life.
It’s not like he had a ton of options. Kids have to want to play at Neb and the top recruits don’t want to play. Name the last QB we put in the league that did anything.Whatever his reasons were, he was wrong. Unfortunately…
Vince Ferragamo?It’s not like he had a ton of options. Kids have to want to play at Neb and the top recruits don’t want to play. Name the last QB we put in the league that did anything.
I don’t think we ever had a shot with him.I think not getting the kid from South Dakota is going to prove to be a bigger miss.
If we had Casey and Allen would it make any difference? Casey has played two games at Florida Atlantic (1-1). He has passed for 460 yards at a 64.18% clip. 5 TDs and 3 Ints. Allen has rushed in his two games at Miami 14 times for 70 yards.He was padding depth at QB because CT was recovering off-season and unfortunately CT bailed. Can’t blame CT, the O-line is pathetic and the keep trotting out these Pillsbury doughboy wannabes.

Sure it matters.. it shows a pattern of evaluation, planning, and execution that puts us in the situation we are in today. Nobody else but Rhule is driving the bus. Saying it doesn't matter means you don't want to hold him accountable.Doesn’t matter why he picked him
I’m much more interested in how he handles him moving forward
would it be worth it if we did?Do we have to keep his uncle again? 😂
Have you ever read one of @king_kong_ posts?Sure it matters.. it shows a pattern of evaluation, planning, and execution that puts us in the situation we are in today. Nobody else but Rhule is driving the bus. Saying it doesn't matter means you don't want to hold him accountable.
Accountability is basically all I talk aboutHave you ever read one of @king_kong_ posts?
For real... The dude has hands of stone!There was reason to take Sims. He showed improvement as time went on at Tech, especially last season. His attributes (outside of turning the ball over) match the offense we want to run. His numbers so far this year are twice as bad as any of his seasons as a yellow jacket. On paper, it should not be this bad.
I just don’t think he’s translating to learning this offense very well, so far. Maybe that, combined with the bigger fan base is resulting in some nerves.
If you’re calling for Sims to move to WR, just log out of the site and go check again if you can return your Gateway desktop back to Circuit City.
You've said this multiple times. What makes you believe this is a fact vs an opinion?you don't really want to come to Nebraska
it was reported that he initially turned down our overtures, but then his wife basically twisted his arm to look at our offer more seriously. This was also backed up, in little bits here and there from different videos around the time of his hire. Matt himself mentioned in his speech that his wife kind of did this.You've said this multiple times. What makes you believe this is a fact vs an opinion?
His wife was twisting his arm to uproot the family again into a gig where they'll be in the spotlight and he'll be gone all the time?think of it from Rhule's shoes.. you just got ousted from your NFL gig.. you don't really want to come to Nebraska, but they are going to throw obscene amounts of money at you, and your wife is twisting your arm..

not entirely falseHis wife was twisting his arm to uproot the family again into a gig where they'll be in the spotlight and he'll be gone all the time?
The hottest of takes....lol
First Lady of NU Football not f'ing around, according to a recent Athletic piece:
....after his wife Julie walked through the building that’s soon to house the Huskers’ football headquarters, she sought him out and didn’t mince words.
“You should be here 20 years,” Julie told Matt, according to his recounting of the conversation to a high school athletic director in the Omaha area. “Do not screw this up.”
“She was like, ‘You better win some games,’” Rhule said. “You’ve got no excuses.’”
love it!
That terrific. Doesn't really sound like she's twisting his arm. Shit she sounds a little like you. No excuses.not entirely false
It amazes me how many fans aren't actually paying attention to what has been going on.His wife was twisting his arm to uproot the family again into a gig where they'll be in the spotlight and he'll be gone all the time?
The hottest of takes....lol
I know, you pay supper duper close attention.It amazes me how many fans aren't actually paying attention to what has been going on.
he talked about it more in different interviews, including his intro presserThat terrific. Doesn't really sound like she's twisting his arm. Shit she sounds a little like you. No excuses.
Haha, why so sensitive?it was reported that he initially turned down our overtures, but then his wife basically twisted his arm to look at our offer more seriously. This was also backed up, in little bits here and there from different videos around the time of his hire. Matt himself mentioned in his speech that his wife kind of did this.
I paid very close attention to all this stuff when it happened, as I do with all things Husker football. It doesn't mean I am 100% right about everything all the time, but if you don't believe me, then you are free to think whatever you want. I'm not going to invest hours of my time sifting through old videos just to prove it to you.
Your opinion does not matter to me.
Haha, why so sensitive?
I'm just asking why you think this is a fact as I don't recall hearing what you're saying. Not that it didn't happen which is why I asked.
I also ask because your claim & reasoning on Albert's wanting to hiring Mickey J (then didn't hire) was shaky at best.
There is video out there of Alberts lavishing praise on MJ, and then also doing the same to MR during his hire.Haha, why so sensitive?
