Lookin like no one wants Rhule

Best case scenario would be that OU wants him bc of B12 familiarity and there is a mutual parting of ways.  Tepper tells him to take the job to avoid getting fired and that he’ll release him from the contract so there is no buyout required. 

No way I'm doing that, if I'm Rhule. Way too much money to leave on the table.

Tepper's gonna have to fire me. And keep paying me.

He isn't involved in any college opening rumors at all. I know no one will match the ridiculous contract Tepper gave him but still, nothing.

Tucker, Riley and Kelly have all just signed bigger contracts that Rhule signed here.

It isn't about the money.

Youre joking right? You think Hurney wanted to offer rhule that contract? That is tepper's doing. No GM in their right mind would offer a new coach that much.. Even hurney

Yeah I don't get it either. To me it seems far fetched to think Hurney flew out on Tepper's private jet with 60 million dollars making his own franchise changing decisions only to be gone barely a year later. From what I've seen everything has been about Tepper and Rhule. Once Matt got in here and took a look around you can see how important Marty was. Good or bad Tepper has been in the driver's seat.

I think we both need to make ourselves find something else to do on Sundays.  

I agree and I plan on it 

To be very truthful, as long as Rhule is the coach, there is always going to be ‘something else to do on Sundays’ for a lot of us. 

Stating the obvious, he is not an NFL coach    

Every time I think of Rhule passing on LTs in RD 1 and 2 for a cornerback and a WR, it’s infuriating.

This was already covered in another thread. Hurney approved of Rhule and Tepper went along with it. They were both in the room and in on it. As for the contract, tell me it doesn't look like a Hurney contract? What was the percentage of fault on the contract? No idea but Tepper did allow it to go down like that regardless but Hurney was right there giving his all.

From the introductory press conference. David Tepper's own words. 

And Marty's going with his toughness and his questions and we're about halfway through the interview and Marty Hurney starts melting down. And you could Marty and he's like 'I've gotta get into recruiting mode now.' So Marty goes from total interview mode to putting on the recruiting mode. And Steve and I looked at each other and looked at Marty and didn't say a word, and we just all went into recruiting mode because we knew we had something special.

Oh yeah the GM of the team would never negotiate a coaches horrible contract. You mean like Paying a RB who had two more years on his deal.

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
