If I'm not mistaken didn't he interview with some team the year prior to signing with us? Or am I thinking of someone else?

He had and he also interviewed for the HC job that Gase won with the Jets. It's how he first met Darnold and he had an interview/meeting with Darnold during the process.

He interviewed with the Jets before Gase got the job - he references it when talking about Darnold.

He was due to interview with the Giants the year we hired him, but Tepper didn't let him leave without a contract (altho Rhule called the Giants after that and they wouldn't match the offer Tepper made).

He interviewed with the Jets once.

He's taken others and was scheduled more after ours but he took the job. He's also turned down some, like the Bears for instance. Point is that he clearly wasn't against coaching in the NFL.

Bieniemy might hit some road blocks when his past comes up with the recruiting rape scandal in the early 2000s at Colorado.

Rhule could be a possibility but he would have to really not like the NFL plus USC would need to give him a Jimbo Fisher style contract. Hard to see that happening.

Could see Joe Brady being a top candidate though.

this reeks of bullshit

From the article itself...

I get Rece Davis' thinking and maybe Mike Bohn does approach Matt Rhule in that manner but it won't happen. There's no way Matt Rhule leaves the Panthers for USC. Rhule is building something here in Carolina with the youngest team in the league and a ton of potential surrounding it.

Would he have left Baylor for Carolina for the same amount of money?

Why did he spend the majority of his career at the NCAA level never seeking NFL employment?

He spent 1 year in NY and went back to the NCAA. Marty and Tepper went after him not the other way around.

Uhhh he interviewed for the Jets HC vacancy in 2019.  He very obviously wants to be an NFL coach

A college head coach is higher on the profile and earnings than a NFL assistant coach.

I highly doubt Rhule will try for the USC HC job.  The man has been working for an NFL HC job his entire career.  USC is not exactly the most desirable job in college football anymore.  Anyone who gets that job will have their work cut out for them.  USC is no longer the powerhouse it once was.  I mean hell, USC can't even keep top QB prospects in the state anymore.  I.E. Bryce Young, Dj Ugalelei. How are you going to convince prospects like them, that the PAC 12 is where you need to be.  PAC 12 is weak, and an alliance with ACC is only to keep pace with the SEC. So good luck to the next HC at USC.  You're going to need it.

      this     I never cease to be amazed at the number of people who will run up their blood pressure to get to the grocery store 30 seconds faster or are racing to get to work like it won’t be there at 8:02.   The only thing I’ve ever done that I think added more years to my life besides quitting smoking, was to learn to go with the flow behind the wheel.

      The term you're looking for is "malinger(ed)", and he didn't.  I'm not sure why Panthers fans act like jaded ex girlfriends.  The dude is clearly injury prone as his time in San Fransico also proves. It's not like he got to San Fran and stopped having problems.

      My long and rambling post:   The guy is all heart, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he came back even better next year. He’s exactly the guy you lock up. The money won’t ever change the way he plays.  It was a big fumble, but what 1,000 yard back fumbles once in an entire season?  Pride. This team is FINALLY seeing guys who obviously take the game very seriously. Hunt, Chuba, Thielen, Brown, Horn (CB), Coker, Bryce (IMHO). Bye bye, Spider-Man. I don’t see these dudes being OK with teammates half-assing practice or in games. I can see Brown and Horn coming over to talk to somebody.  Good team? Ummm, maybe, but will still likely lose more close games than they win unless this last draft turns in to LOB part 2. That’s a stretch.  Pretty good/decent team. Yes. They finished the season as a pretty good team. I know I sound like a broken record harping back to it, but going in to ATL and putting a 40 burger on them en route to an OT win. A bad Panthers team would have had their brakes beaten off. We’ve seen it.  Rose colored glasses on and bonging a 40 of hopium: There are watershed moments that occur that change the course of franchises, both good and bad. If Fox doesn’t pull Rodney at halftime, the epic journey that was 2003 never happens. On the negative side, Cam taking that one hit from Watt was the end of any and all Panthers relevancy and we’ve been the biggest losers in all of pro sports as a result. Watershed moments. LOB draft. Vinny goes down and the goat is born.  Will the ATL game be the spark that this franchise has desperately needed? Could it be that they hit the mega million jackpot with Princley and Scourton as eat QBs for breakfast? Sure would be nice having 2 all-pro edge guys on the cheap for the next 4 years.  A lot of unknowns, but at least it actually feels  fun again.
