Zero chance he ends up at A&M, my god this guy is going to be a HC somewhere and this board thinks he would want a position coaching spot under fisher.

On top of that, Rhule has worked with Addazio while at Temple and could get on the same page again with him in no time and have our offense firing on a cylinders.

Rhule inherited a 1-11 Baylor team in 2017 and had them at 11-1 by 2019 and in the big12 championship.

Rhule hates Addazio. His first move would be to fit Addazio with concrete boots, which might be the best move for the program anyway.

Rhule inherited a team that went 7-6 under interim Jim Grobe. Rhule's first team went 1-11.
Rhule hates Addazio? What's the story there?

Trev Alberts frantically calling Matt Rhule and offering all the corn in Nebraska
Jimmy Rane is offering all the trees in Alabama to come to Auburn.


Word around the campfire is that Auburn really wants Jeff Grimes or Hugh Freeze if Sankey will allow Freeze anywhere near the SEC.

Matt did a good job at Baylor, but he is a defensive guy.

He's coached both ways. Was Temple's OC for 4 years.

But this is all a silly exercise. He's going to be a HC for a pretty good program by the end of the year.


Matt is VERY old school. If people don't like Jimbo, they would hate Matt. Very hard nosed. Very run first. Very physical practices, especially defensively. Matt is a no nonsense , tough minded, very sound football coach but not what the folks are wanting as an offensive coordinator here, imo.

has he ever called plays?


He was the defensive line coach at Temple and OC in 2008. Go figure!

He is not going to be a college coordinator. He will be snatched up by one of the current and soon to come HC openings, he will have his pick.

Rhule's specialty is Offensive Line. Don't think he enjoyed recruiting. I see him being an NFL position coach and enjoying his money.

Lmfao

5 years in & y'all still don't get that Jimbo is only going to do things his way…
Well can't the peeps that hired him force him to take this OC as a stipulation to keep his job?

When Addazio got to Temple, he demoted Rhule, who had been OC for Al Golden. Not sure why Rhule didn't follow Golden to Miami, maybe he wasn't invited on the plane.

Addazio was horrible to the Temple players. Year 2 they gave up on Addazio, somehow he gets hired by BC, and Temple hires Rhule to build the program back up.

Sounds like Adazzio is an ashhole and a buffoon...

Rhule is an amazing motivator and his preferred defensive schemes are super solid. Offense is a bit too conservative because he's trying to control ball possession. He and his staff didn't take a liking to recruiting and problems would have shown up if he'd remained at Baylor. I still love and am very grateful for what he did at Baylor.

The gutsy call would be to fire Jimbo and hand over all that talent to Rhule with the understanding that he's a 3-4 year bridge to the next guy.
We not firing Jimbo...Nothing to do with guts
Jimbo will be around for a while.

Rhule will be in Lincoln or Auburn by December 1 as HC

I would love for it to happen, but I would be shocked if Jimbo hired an OC that ran a different offense. I hope I'm wrong, but I could see him promoting Coley who was an OC at UGA and ran a similar offense with the same results and was fired by Kirby. Coley is a good TE coach and a recruiter, but we probably need a bigger change.

If we had a better OL, I think this would be moot point.

Rhule is an atrocious offensive coach. He is a great defensive coach. Shows you haven't watched many of his teams play.

While we are dreaming, Scott Frost would be an interesting option. Yes, he sucked at Nebraska but I think he was too focused on bringing back the old Nebraska. His offenses at Oregon and UCF were top 5.
2+2=5

1) Helfrich/Kelly made frost. No offense at Oregon was 'his'

2) his 2nd year (the good year) at ucf had a pitiful pitiful schedule and he left right after. His first year they finished 100+ in total offense.

3) he's known by many as a bona-fide *****.

4) his offensive philosophy doesn't seem to be anything close jimbo's

Id change the post to begin with "while we're having nightmares"

Carolina owes Rhule in excess of $40 million. My guess is he won't be coaching anywhere anytime soon

Rhule is going to have the pick of the litter when it comes to HC jobs in college. No chance he's looking for an OC job

Jimbo is very loyal to his coaches and players. Loyalty is a great trait although it can hurt the good of the whole team at times. There are times loyalty must be forsaken for the good of the organization. Principle: Jimbo's loyalty is more of a benefit to the A&M football program than it is a negative. Trust Jimbo to make the right calls at the right time on coaches and players.

Thats funny. Trust Jimbo.

This would be a slam dunk OC hire if Matt Rhule doesn't land a HC gig back in college.

Play calling duties can be handed over to him entirely with full confidence from Jimbo.

On top of that, Rhule has worked with Addazio while at Temple and could get on the same page again with him in no time and have our offense firing on a cylinders.

Rhule inherited a 1-11 Baylor team in 2017 and had them at 11-1 by 2019 and in the big12 championship.

This is a too good to be true hire that would require some luck and a lot of convincing, which Jimbo seems to be great at. Throw some extra titles his way and make this happen!
He is going to be a Head Coach, we should target kansas' OC.

Phil Snow is the only reason that Rhule made a name for himself. Better have a lot of QBs willing to be punished for playing offense for Matt Rhule for sure.

He is. He was smart enough to hire Phil Snow and turn the defense over to him. Rhule will be job hunting the second he signs a contract with anyone. He'll be around three years tops.

I'm not sure you understand the meaning of "gutsy" enough to use it properly.

Why would Rhule take any OC job when he is going to have multiple HC offers to choose from?
