Hagg Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 Eh, my desire to throw a pie in Coach Rhule's face is tempered a bit, at this point anyway, by seeing his 1 win and 2 win records in his first years at Temple and Baylor. He did fine after that, as we know. This time, though, he's trying to fire up an old rusted out locomotive that has tons of dead weight behind it. So, even if he's successful at getting it moving it's going to be very very slow going. I guess it's a a five year plan. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment

Continue to deflect from your bad take. Just to refresh everyone’s memory. Take us through what you’d have Sat do to stop Sims from dropping a snap(s). Or what work you’d encourage for him to stop throwing directly to the other team. How would you coach him up to correct the errors? Or you want to continue to focus on a typo? 2 Quote Link to comment

Sure CT lit up Monmouth, but he was very Sims-like yesterday vs Ohio 23-42 180 yds 0 TDs 2 INTs 4 Quote Link to comment

How do you have faith he’s going to be able to do the same here based on the decisions he’s made so far here and the product he’s fielded? Also do you really think this fan base is willing to have the patience and faith to endure more losing seasons just hoping it will get better? That sounds like the Frost regime… By what year is it no longer acceptable to have a losing season with Rhule? Just as a reminder Deion is likely to have a winning season his first year with CU - a program that was in an even worse situation than we were in. 1 2 Quote Link to comment
corncraze Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 Also what about Rhule tenure at Temple was so great? You could argue Al Golden built that program to consistent 9-win seasons, then after one Addazzio (not sure if I spelled his name right but am too lazy to google), Rhule came in, wrecked the program for two years and then brought it back to where it was with Golden (granted with 1-2 more wins a season). And his year at Baylor seems like a flash-in-pan. One good year in a bad conference. Baylor didn’t beat a ranked team that whole year. Then he cashed in his chips at the most opportune time, got a huge NFL deal and failed there. 1 2 1 Quote Link to comment
Shadow_Husker Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 Personally I believe our problems over the last 20+ years is more than what meets the eye. I truly believe that we have issues within the university, Of all the power 5 schools we are the only ones who have had multiple athletic directors, 5 football head coaches, Multiple presidents and lastly multiple chancellors. 3 Quote Link to comment

Maybe he’ll turn it around, but I have my doubts. Quote Link to comment

I don't know how to answer that, because I'm not a college football coach. And neither are you. Well, maybe you are; please post your college football coaching national championships and stuff because I could be wrong about you. Quote Link to comment

Good point I guess. Analogies can be distracting, but that one seems pretty close: That ship is at the bottom of the ocean and we are at the bottom of our schnapps bottles. 1 Quote Link to comment

I just can't buy in that this is gonna improve, and him sticking with Sims starting the second half might have shown me what I needed to know. Quote Link to comment
