the comments by Zatechka and the quote by Rhule seem to be at odds with each other.
Rhule is going to be diplomatic and principled. He's not going to throw players (or a whole position group) under the bus. He knows that HE IS going to pick who the 1s and 2s are this year and said that "everyone starts with a clean slate". How does it help him to say anything more than what he said?
(I think it will be interesting how much different the O-Line's new strength and conditioning coach can make with them this year. Also, we had a couple of losses this year that people forget about. Nouili and Prochazka were a force to run behind - when they were on the field at the same time in 2020. Prochaszka got a redshirt year from his knee injury in 2021 and I hope he comes back better than ever. Nouili took himself out for a year and hopefully he has grown up and learned something and will take the new staff as a fresh opportunity.

What’s the point of the Tweet?
How is it past present and future?
I have to connect the dots???
Past: Dominic Raiola (Former Cornhusker -> NFL career -> Father of Dylan, brother to Donovan)
Present: Donovan Raiola (NFL career -> present Cornhusker O-Line Coach)Future: Dylan Raiola (future 5-Star Commit -> Cornhusker QB)

Hate to spoil it, but #50 is John Raridon, a 2019 OL.
+1 for pure accuracy
-2 for accuracy on the point of the tweet

WHAT a gif find by Rhule!!!
Past… present… FUTURE! Raiola!

His dad was a Husker star.
His uncle is the O-Line Coach.
Neither dad or uncle was a fan of Frost.
Now an adult is in charge of the program.
Nebraska can compete in facilities, NIL, and (now, I believe) player development.
(Very curious to see how the new strength coach works out).
Also, the Big 10 West is still winnable & if you do that you likely get Ohio St. or Michigan in the Big Ten Championship every year.
I think he’s N.

Have Coach Raiola’s new salary details been published yet? Seems to me he might get them bumped (a bonus) if his nephew commits to Nebraska.
The O-Line coach might be incentivized by his brother to protect the QB in his care.

Curious how Huskerboard might react to the return of Danny Langsdorf as QB coach under Rhule?

It is kind of interesting to note that Rhule took 2 full months from when he was hired at Baylor to complete his on-field Assistant Coaching selections. (middle of February) And the last one filled was his QB Coach.
I also didn't realize that Matt Lubick was his WR Coach there.
One other thing of interest in the article above, is that Rhule hired a lot of assistants straight out of the High School ranks. I wonder if he has given a look at any Nebraska high school coaches (and how the fan base would react to him doing that here). For example, Michael Huffman - Bellevue West Head Coach/Quarterbacks has built quite a program.

No one wants to hire a HC who has lost more than they have won. Some have concerns for Rhule's over all record.
If that overall record comes as a result of willingly taking on serious reclamation projects then you have to account for (and RESPECT) THAT.

Also it doesn't hurt a lot of their players are older as a lot do missions before enrolling.
This just in: ANYBODY can recruit older returning LDS missionaries, though BYU and Utah have some home field advantage. https://universe.byu.edu/2021/10/20/a-bond-and-brotherhood-how-7-returned-missionaries-are-thriving-with-stanford-football/

I heard the rumors about Raiola (the qb) but I don't know where or if there is any proof to him even thinking about that.
Pure speculation, on my part.

So does anyone have suggestions on who is going to be the o-line coach and defensive coordinator? Not many names have been thrown out for the o-line coach. Raiola has been interviewed but I would say a lot of Husker Fans wouldn't want him to come back. Phil Snow has been thrown out as a name and the Georgia co-defensive coordinator has been thrown out as well but there are no clues or indication on to who is going to be named.
An argument could be made that Raiola is not a bad coach, but (especially without Nouili & Prochazka) he just didn’t have the horses. We just don’t know (for sure). A current Ohio St. commit (named Raiola) switching to Nebraska might also hang in the balance. As a coach, he MAY deserve at least another year’s evaluation, under a new HC & OC.

Looking for clues: The Philosophy of Harry Heistand's School of Offensive Line
in Husker Football
Posted
I thought the most interesting part of Rhule's press conference yesterday was his mention of both he and Raiola subscribing to the Harry Heistand school of coaching O-Line.
(I'd love to know more about the "three schools" he referred to and how they differ from one another "like driving on the opposite side of the road").
But given how starved we are for information on what Rhule's 2023 Cornhuskers might look like, I thought it might be worth a thread on this little nugget: Harry Heistand.
You'll find him on camera for post-practice pressers, etc. if you search YouTube for his name.
It's worth remembering that we don't have Harry Heistand on our staff, but rather two students of Harry Heistand - but understanding him could still be instructive (and perhaps give the journalists some fodder for off-season questions for Rhule and Riaola).
