Matt Rhule: An Education on Our New HC


SetfreexX

Recommended Posts

Gents feel free to drop educational links, as many I am intrigued by this hire, I've wanted an offensive minded coach for sooooooo long to attempt to maximize our potential. I'm not a huge college guy but my thumb is on it, let's help educate each other on the addition.

That said, why Rhule embraced the RPO game was because of the following reasons:

  • To protect the run game
  • To exploit the defense (more on this later*)
  • To put defenders in conflict
  • To spread the ball around
  • To negate defensive pursuit

The Guy has coached on a NFL staff so he knows how the NFL works vs guys like Dabo and Lincoln Riley or Even Urban Myer.  They know College football, they know how to recruit which is 60% is college  football but 0% in the pros

Though Rhule has come to grips with the RPO game, he deploys it only situationally. “The hard part of the RPO is not the whats, it’s the when,” he said. Baylor runs RPO in the following situations:

  • Base downs
  • 2nd and long
  • 3rd and 3-6
  • Red zone
  • Four-down territory

Why not on 2nd-and-short? It’s simple: Rhule loves the quarterback sneak there. “We changed our season by just going QB sneak,” he said. “We were 14-of-14, including two plays of over 15 yards. 2nd and 1-2 is direct run, preferably QB sneak.”

    • Not in same league. Caldwell just hit a 10.00 on the RAS. 2nd out of 3830 from 1987 onward.  https://x.com/MathBomb/status/2027885023387349047 Yeah I mean Louis had a sub 9.00 RAS. Still very very good, no doubt. Louis is small, no 2 ways about it. He is likely a sub package lb in nickel packages or specialized WLB. Be fine ST gunner to start for sure. 6 foot flat and 220lb is pushing it for a starting LB. At 10 to 20lbs less than the other LBs he'd better be closer to the top in most timed drills. He's gonna be challenged when some of the wrs in the class can matchup bigger stronger faster, much less TE in the run game.  Yeah instinct matter and he has them, but that size is a massive red flag compared to many of the other LBS in this class.    Rodriguez is the LB that really climbed this week from a pure grit guy to great flash with athleticism people wrote off cause he was a QB at first at UVA. 18.4mph in the backpedal. Production the last 2 years were great. I'd be thrilled with him as the future mike.   Hill likely moved out of 51 and into the top 45 picks ( Ravens at 45 I can't imagine don't bite if he makes it there). Honestly Hill imo is a 1st rounder and I'd be ok with him as he fits the MLB we have missed the last few years. People would crow it's a reach but he's top 30 all-time I'm RAS for a LB at 9.9+ . Plus he was big time in big games when he was healthy. And that br a big check: meds. 
    • Miller, Melo, Coby, Moose, and Bridges all on the floor at the same time must be a nightmare for defenses lol. Switch one out for Kon and still a nightmare. Coby really does bring a true 6th man value and looks like he could start if Melo was out after only a few games of getting his feet wet.
