Pretty sure there’s a better chance of Meyer going than Rhule. Rhule doesn’t seem like the kind of person who would start something without finishing it.

Matt Rhule signed an extension to coach Baylor through 2028….4 months later he signed a deal with the Panthers

Matt Rhule will do what is best for Matt Rhule.  That ain’t hate either.   That just the reality of it.  

If he bails on Carolina it would mean he didn’t have confidence in where things would be headed for him here.  Because a USC move wouldn’t be about pay in the near future.

I don’t see him jumping ship now though. There is no way he leaves/Tepper let’s him leave. This isn’t college. There’s nobody left to run the team if he leaves either, snow will piggy back him, Brady would probably be HC with a nonexistent coaching staff. Tepper, by way of his business, doesn’t let those kind of implosions happen. 
 

All I see if a college talking head spewing bullshit way out of his league. 
 

After the season if we have a shitty season than idk. Rhule is an East coast guy though. There’s nothing that says he’d want to go to USC besides the fact he’d be handed the keys of a college Lamborghini.

It's always seemed like he wanted to be an NFL guy, and college was just a means to an end. He's not been bad here. He took a team that was supposed to be absolute dog poo and made them scrappy/competitive right away. He's already shown a great talent for developing players and it seems like the team is trending in the right direction. He also just picked up his family and moved them from Texas to North Carolina, he has young kids and I can't imagine that would be a desirable thing to do again.

The only thing that would give me pause is how his demeanor has changed since he's been here. On day one he was upbeat and positive, now he seems tired and annoyed most of the time.

lol Quite the imagination you have there. Just because you try and sound like Yoda, doesn't mean what you say isn't goofy af.

Yeah, that was just facts in response to someone saying Matt Rhule doesn’t seem like the type to start something and leave. 

so again, Matt Rhule signed a deal to coach Baylor until 2028.  4 months later he signed a deal with the Panthers.  Matt Rhule will do  what is best for Matt Rhule.  It’s what people do.  

I don’t think the USC job would be better for him right now.  So I don’t see him leaving.  But he could hit a window after this year….where he realizes what he does works better at the college ranks and dips before he establishes himself as a meh NFL coach.

it was during a segment on College Gameday...they were talking about who would be a good fit for the Trojans (😏) and Kirk said Rhule was the kind of coach who would relate to the young players, and was the kind of coach that had the characteristics and personality for that particular job.

He Matt and a couple of other guys were who they should be focusing on because of the kind of coaches they are.

Love the double-entendre there.

Can't see it happening. Seems to me that Rhule wanted to be an NFL HC but wanted the right situation where he basically had full control.  Well, that's what he got. If he jumped ship barely over a year after getting that he'll probably never get it again. College opportunities will still be there if he fails at the NFL level. Maybe not USC level opportunities, but good opportunities none the less.
