How he got a job at Temple (from Pete Thamel)

Quote

A few days before Christmas in 2005, Rhule decided to show up unannounced at the Temple football offices. He and his wife, Julie, had packed up their black Nissan Maxima in South Carolina and headed back to their native Pennsylvania for Christmas. They had their 1-year-old son, Bryant, in his car seat and three pets in tow. 

It wasn’t an ideal timing for a three-hour detour to make a cold call to inquire about a job. Especially considering that Rhule, an assistant coach at Western Carolina, had never even met new Temple coach Al Golden. 

Julie Rhule pulled off Route 1 onto Broad Street when Matt Rhule realized she’d missed a stop sign. He screamed, “Stop!” Julie jacked on the brakes, with powdered sugar from Christmas cookies cascading around the car like confetti. 

Rhule dusted off, walked into the Temple football office and waited for Golden, who ended up hiring him a few months later. “Here’s this guy,” Golden told me recently with a laugh, “sitting outside my office.”

This about the best thing I like about Rhule, being WCU alumni myself.  Graduated in '99 so, he was there a few years after I left.

If he could have turned around the Catamount's program then I would be a firm believer.  Yeah, it's that bad.

Brick backsplash, two-toned wood finish cabinetry, & a stainless steel toaster oven.  We should all be very concerned.

Is this the thread where people with IKEA cabinets in their kitchen mock people who have nice poo?
