I don't honestly remember the discussion.

I would say right now that while this team certainly has talent in spots (this year's receiver group would definitely trump the 2015 bunch) the coaching staff is...deficient.

Thomas davis said "this 2021 team is better/more talented than the 2015 one". I laughed hard and got mad about him giving the fans hope. I said the 2015 team would skull drag 2021 unit and you dis-agreed with that. Even said you should know better, but you seem to think that this team would beat or even be favored. Now at 5-7, I wondered if you had a chance of heart?

In all seriousness, I have no doubt that Rhule would be tempted to leave for Ok or Notre Dame.  The question is, do either of those schools want to hire him?

I don’t see how you could sell Matt Rhule to Notre Dame alumni and fans.  Really any school that views themselves a legit perennial contenders. 

Matt Rhule seems like a guy that could of jumped from Baylor to a SEC job like South Carolina.

I think his 2nd biggest win was against a 18th ranked ECU.......... ecu had their normal dive after the game...

His only ranked wins were vs. ECU and Navy. ECU turned it over 5 times and out-gained Temple roughly 4:1.. Navy turned it over 3 times. Temple was +8 in turnover margin in those two wins. Both Temple and Navy both dropped out of the rankings after those losses and ended those seasons roughly .500ish.

I asked this then and I ask again- What on earth...stop...how did Rhule become the "hottest" prospect in the NFL? Panthers were not alone in wanting him, even year before the Jets wanted him. Plus how did he honeydick billionaire Tepper when they met at his home?  That face-to-face preaching power must be beyond numbers.

college football because of early polls creates too many fraudulent narratives  It’s like UGA getting to claim they beat the #3 team in Clemson to open up the season.   Reality is they beat a top 20-25 caliber team. 

early polling misrepresents what Clemson was this year.  That’s how Rhule got his 2 top 25 wins.   Those weren’t actually top 25 teams when the dust settled.

Don't listen to the noise, he was a very good college coach.  Gave Temple some of its best seasons, then had Baylor in the Sugar bowl in three years.  Beating ranked teams is not a big deal playing in a conference that doesn't have many of them.  A team has to beat who it plays.

 

But good in college does not equal good in the NFL.  He was good in college and he should go back.  🙂

UNC was a top 10 preseason team. Without Sam Howell, we'd have two maybe three wins. 😂

that wasn’t Gamecock hate.  They are local and an easy example of the type gig that should of come next for a coach like Rhule. 

That would have been a big jump for Rhule to land a gig like South Carolina.

    • okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.  
    • Jackie, any more reps tomorrow, or is that it for this session?  thanks for the work
    • How can you say they aren’t trying to win now with all the moves made in free agency? Or is trading first round picks the only way to be win now? I’d be fine never trading another first round pick again, win now be damned.
