He is not the answer man.  Like REALLY not the answer.  A part of me loves the idea because I freaking love John H as a coach but a stretch.  If it happens I will support but hell, I still support Rhule.  He hasn’t had enough time here IMO.

The absolute hatred for Matt Rhule is pretty amazing.  Sign of the times but Rhule has tried hard to build a team in 2 years and because he isn’t winning he is called a joke.  I don’t get it.  He does know football.

Jmo ..

I'd rather stick with Rhule one more year then go to another "hot now" coordinator with no HC experience and will take more years to figure out how to do that.. Or retread with moderate nfl success..

But Harbaugh is a different story.. That's like getting Arians or Carroll or Reid type of coach.. Dude has won and been successful where ever he goes and has a Culture ready to go day 1.. You can't pass that up..

It's not entirely because he isn't winning at all. It's because he's regressed in ways no one on this board could have predicted possible. Pair that with the fact that he's a liar who only looks out for his own - it's no surprise that a lot of folks aren't buying what he's selling now. 

Is the defense better since he got here?  You can’t just discount that.  Did he walk in here knowing everything, no.  Who does?  I like Matt Rhule as a coach and leader.  I really do.  People love to tear everyone down these days but in time I think he could turn this around

The QB situation was a debacle…a learning experience.  You have to draft your QB almost always.  

The OL has been the complete downfall of this team.  He definitely learned that this year.  NFL DLs are light years more talented than college

The Big 12 probably hasn’t had a player at DT like Derrick Brown in many years.

If I were Tepper I would come out with big balls and tell the world Matt Rhule is here to stay.  Fug all the bullshet and let him do the job he was hired for…he can do it.  

Bring in a proper OC and get to work.

True, although the talent gap between Georgia and Michigan was substantial.  Michigan OL won the Joe Moore award but not sure they were the best OL.  Bama and Georgia as good or better.

Georgia had better talent everywhere except probably the Michigan DEs

Who recruited and coached that talent at Michigan?  I say we keep looking. 

[PNW_PantherMan]

I don't know why he'd want to leave Michigan, to be honest.  One of the best jobs in the country, and he just got the monkey off his back this year by finally beating Ohio State.  He still hasn't won a National Championship, so there's a lot left to play for.

Seems like the perfect job for him.

Most of our best players on the team now who want to achieve great things but may have very little time. They're in their prime now like CMC,DJ,B.Burns for example. 

All this rebuilding is amateur talk. If you don't WIN in the NFL you won't have a job. You should be building your team to win every season.

lol oh ok, let’s see if we were to land Harbaugh we more than likely would move to a 3-4 base, thus moving Burns and Reddick (if retained) back to OLB. However, we would need to get a few more Bravvion Roy’s for DEs, and that will take a season or two. That is with Harbaugh. Rebuilding will happen regardless of who replaces Rhule. It’s not amateur talk to think it may take an additional season or two to adjust to a scheme and playbook change.

Recruiting in college takes years usually.  Example of a coach that gets it is Brian Kelly.  LSU is always an amazing pool for recruiting.  LSU will challenge in the SEC very quickly.  Michigan is not a destination team especially with Ohio State in your conference.

If Kelly recruits a really good QB that will be the difference for them.  They always get amazing talent otherwise

The absolute hatred for Matt Rhule is pretty amazing.  Sign of the times but Rhule has tried hard to build a team in 2 years and because he isn’t winning he is called a joke.  I don’t get it.  He does know football.  Of course he was going to struggle in the NFL.  Every coach does…this league is brutally hard to win at

To me it’s not the fact that our team is bad.  I’ve seen worse Panthers teams. It’s Rhule’s double standards and the complete regression across the board, despite having more talent on the team.  He claims that he won’t make comments on game day until after he looks at film, but when the starting QB isn’t his guy, he will throw him under the bus without a second thought.  

Joe Brady wasn’t his guy and he went out of his comfort zone to hire him.  Joe Brady, who was the passing coordinator of the leading pass offense in college football history at the time, only to be given a poo OL and poo QBs.  Then when it wasn’t working he tells Brady to just run more.  He gets fired, the offense somehow looks even worse after his buddy is promoted.  
 

It’s not just one thing, but a complete failure around the board.  Like I’ve said before, the last Chiefs game was a well coached game and Rhule actually did show some promise last year.  But he doesn’t know how to build an NFL team.  The more time he has, the worse we are.  It’s that simple.  We are laughably bad and I don’t have faith in us beating any team except maybe, mayyybe the Jags.

Harbaugh has a connection to Jacksonville with Trent Baalke. 
 

Good chance if Fangio is let go in Denver he would reunite with Harbaugh in the NFL that would be a silver lining. Fangio and this Defense would be something to see. Fangio has already been here before for those that remember.

Would also add that Vic Fangio’s current OC is Pat Shurmur (no connection) but the QB coach is a very familiar face-Mike Shula.

Yeah but remember Baalke isn’t exactly in a cold seat. Do what you got to do when you have a once in a lifetime job.
