Matt Rhule - The most impressive thing he does


Jeremy Igo

Recommended Posts

Rhule has had two head coaching jobs, each in college. In each instance, he took an awful program and made them really good. 

Have a look:

TEMPLE

2013: 2-10

2014: 6-6

2015: 10-4

2016: 10-3

 

BAYLOR

2017: 1-11

2018: 7-6

2019: 11-3

 

And this is college, where it is infinitely more difficult than the NFL to turn around a program. No draft, no free agency. College recruiting takes so much more time. 

David Tepper must have saw something in Rhule that he just could not pass up to even interview other guys that he was interested in. 

 

Now is the time for optimism. This is a really good hire with tons of potential in rebuilding this franchise.

Devils advocate: 

turning around a college program is largely about being a good recruiter, a skill that is borderline meaningless to success in the NFL as a HC.

Yes, but that takes years and years to turn things around. Far longer than what Rhule was able to do.

Winning at bad programs is the sign of a good coach. 

Casual college football fans seem to think it's all about wins and playoff appearances, but college football is predicated entirely on recruiting power and money. Urban Meyer and Dabo Swinney didn't start winning games because of how good of coaches they are; they can outrecruit, out spend, and build better organizations.

That advantage doesn't exist at the NFL because everyone has unlimited money (except the bengals lmao) and everyone can do whatever they want. The talent difference is negligible. 

This is a fuging great hire.

not at fuging baylor. 

Briles got that program going by like opening up the prisons and turning it into a rape fun park. 

Ruhle didn't do that. They looked bad against UGA because the Dawgs (sic em) are better at every single position. Baylor is like the sixth most powerful program in Texas, they simply didn't have the players to line up against Georgia.

Dude I'm ecstatic, young mind that will be more in tune with the players because there is a lesser age gap. A young brilliant mind...love this.

Good point. However, if you look at his recruiting rankings they are far from stellar so maybe not recruiting that he excelled at.

It took 3 seasons for him to turn Temp,e and Baylor into winners. 3 seasons in, only your seniors aren’t guys you recruited. The team is 75% yours. How exactly is it supposed to take years and years longer if you’re good at recruiting?

    • A poster who literally only posts to criticize others' opinions complaining about toxicity. That's rich. Honestly, most of the toxicity subsided because most of the "cope brigade" packed up and left. There were some folks who just couldn't handle encountering a differing opinion and they finally realized it and left. It was for the best for everyone. Most of the folks left don't mind grappling with different opinions. Sure there's period of dunking and finger pointing and whatnot, but it's no longer every thread everyday.  
    • Obviously so much has been invested in this offense in the 2023 and 2024 offseasons, and there are no more excuses for the QB. I would say that makes me more excited for this year than last.  My biggest curiosity is scheme/Young what is that going to look like? I have my own general picture of what I think it will look like and if the people up front are what we are paying for then the running game should be much improved. At least from the standpoint of moving the LOS in the right direction when we need to have a yard. That would be a great help. But I don’t know yet how they can get the defenses backed off and that’s what I am curious to see.  I’m not worried really at all over the receiving options I think there are plenty it comes down to can they get the ball in their hands through the air.
