Why is everyone so sure Rhule is a home run hire?

He really impressed me at Baylor, and I thought they were really well coached. He seems to have Nebraska playing better as well, but he’s also a PSU grad..

All of their HC were born in PA or the northeast. Paterno was NY, as is Rhule.

It could be anyone.. I’m totally guessing.

If they were all that, they would have accomplished far more since joining the BIG.... They are a mid pack team, basically BIGs Ole Miss.

Why not Sarkisian? Earlier some Texas fans wanted him gone.

Cignetti being 64 years old and able to work with a loving, patient fan base seems to be a great set up. He would be a fool to leave. IU can find top tier coaching salaries and NIL as well.

You’d have to ask them. I’ve never been in that group.

$50 million buyout. Dude won big time by losing big time. CFB is fricking toast LOL. At some point the actually mission of universities has to regain control. With private capital about to buy Big 10 programs it is probably the end completely.

Elliot and Golesh are realistic replacements.

"Got Vandy off the mat" & then promptly took all of Vandy's top recruits with him, crippling the program back to where it was.

Yeah, there’s a lot of good looking candidates out there. But the standard is a national title. That’s hard to do!
