The report that he wants total control scares me.

In fairness, he has a good thing going in college and a great college head coaching gig pays about the same as the NFL. Why would you not want complete control? 

Not saying we should give it to him, obviously. I think we need to have a good team of people(front office and coaching staff) that are on the same page. I definitely don't like the idea of a one stop shop head coach/GM. Doesn't work out that often.

I get that, and yes a college coach would be used to full power. Unfortunately, I think it's too much for a guy with very little pro experience to handle.

Rhule was an assistant offensive line coach - basically an assistant to an assistant - for one season (2012 with the Giants). Now he wants to be an NFL head coach with full control? Yikes!

If he got the job, we'd have to hope he really is as good as he believes he is, because otherwise that could be a Chip Kelly like disaster

Riley LMAO! Did u see what he did yesterday against a great team. Oklahoma plays nobody.

Oklahoma beat the team that Rhule coaches... twice this year...By your thinking, Rhule's teams play nobody and the best team they played all year just gave up like 12 offensive records set by LSU against Oklahoma and did most of it in the first half. Rhule coached in a very weak conference when at Temple and then joined another weak conference in the Big 12. Since we started having a playoff five years ago no team from the Big 12 has even won a playoff game. Its an also-ran conference.

This guy suck so bad. I really don’t know why Panthers fans are so obsessed with him. Still waiting on someone to tell me why we should hire this guy. 
 

Rhule has been with Baylor for 3 seasons now. He won a total of 1 gm during his first season. Finally won 11 this season to bring his record to 19-19; a .500 record. Take it back to his Temple days, he got a record of 47-42. If you want an 8-8 .500 team, sure hire the man.

    • I’m honestly not trying to argue with you or talk bad about Scourton, I like him and I’ve watched all of his Purdue stuff/videos you linked previously. Just like I’ve watched all of Princely’s Florida stuff I’m only pointing out the weight thing because I’m excited about the idea of him being 255-260 and being more of a stand up edge here in Carolina like he was at Purdue versus at A&M And like you, I have a crap load of experience doing the whole cutting/weight/fitness thing and I know how crappy/sluggish I feel when I’m holding as little as an extra 8-10lbs of unnecessary weight. So for Scourton to come out and say he’s 255-260 now and feels good that’s exciting based on what he’s put on film at 280 and not feeling his best 
    • I hate seeing this. I'm not sure he was ever going to make it in the NFL without the injury but that injury knocked FSU out of the college football playoffs and cost him and them and opportunity on the biggest stage in college sports. The injuries are the worst part of this game. They've created a nearly unending list of "what ifs". Hell, every HS, college, and pro team out there has a long list of them. It's also a good reminder that there's no such thing as a routine major injury. Even though sports medicine has improved dramatically in recent decades, major injuries are still somewhat of a coin flip on how a guy is going to emerge from it.
    • I don't know what Texas A&M was doing with their edge rushers. They had two freaks in Scourton and Shemar Stewart and yet instead of turning them loose they asked them to play 20 lbs overweight and just set the edge. That's full-on coaching malpractice at any level. Much was made about Shemar Stewart's lack of sack production, but while he wasn't my favorite prospect this year a lot of that was clearly what they were asking him to do. The good news with Scourton is that, unlike Stewart, did manage to be a huge factor as a pass rusher despite this and despite playing 20 lbs overweight. If he can stay around 260-265 it should help him re-gain some of that explosiveness from his Purdue days.
