Saunders Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 It's still only like half of the Jimbo deal. 1 Quote Link to comment

I think we need to talk about contracts in Jimbos or Tuckers. "Man did you see what Fickell is getting from Wisconsin. Its like 0.4 Jimbos" 4 1 Quote Link to comment

Should it work out as well as we want it to, should another program successfully steal Rhule they’re going to pay a price for it. I’d say we have ourselves a very good coach. I agree Quote Link to comment

Kind of a weak answer unless you forgot the sarcasm. I was a Fickell first guy. He wa my top choice. How do you know it was one sided??? You don’t. Fickell may have interviewed but maybe wasn’t that interested. What did you expect Trev to say??? Matt was our 3rd choice. Furthermore, Wiscy is in such a BETTER position to succeed next year than we are. This is UNIVERSALLY known and has been discussed. Fickell has a MUCH easier job in the short term. To judge Rhule based on the first two years solely on comparison with Wiscy is absolutely absurd. If it was sarcasm, I apologize. 2 1 Quote Link to comment

Mavric Posted November 29, 2022 Author Share Posted November 29, 2022 As mentioned earlier, Alberts used Matrix Analytical to assist in the search. Some examples Alberts listed are: What's their record against a team with lesser talent? What’s their record in one-score games? What do nine-win teams in the Big Ten do relative to number of run plays? How many times do they run the ball prior to having an explosive run? 4 1 Quote Link to comment

To judge Rhule based on the first two years solely on comparison with Wiscy is absolutely absurd. If it was sarcasm, I apologize. I respectfully disagree with your analysis. Wisconsin is not in a much better place than us. We were leading the entire game until we collapsed the last minute. We have better players and quarterback and I can say that our chances of succeeding next season are almost the same. To say that Fickell has the easier task is unfounded. Also, do we know if Fickell was even interviewed by Trev. I am not saying Rhule is not a good hire but if he was chosen over Fickell and we end up bowless again next season while Wisconsin wins the west, wouldn’t you want to know why Rhule was chosen over Fickell? Again, I am really hoping that Rhule is successful because I am tired of the coaching carousel. However, when I learned that Fickell was hired by Wisconsin, I wondered why not us? Was it by choice or was he never considered? It would be nice if they listed who was considered. Quote Link to comment

It sounded like Carolina was throwing a fit that we weren't paying enough, so we had to up it. And that's probably what happened. But I was thinking it would be more in the $8-9M each year. If we were only going to pay him in the $5M range each year while Carolina was still picking up the rest of the tab, I could see why they balked. Of course, they should balk at anything less than what they are on the hook for, that's just good business. Can't wait until 2027 when we have a $10M coach.... I wonder if 10 mil will be still in the top 10 of cfb by then? Quote Link to comment
