Rhule would obviously be gone as would Brady as he is half the attraction there with his connection to Caleb Williams and we know Rhule is not going anywhere without Phil Snow along for the ride.

It's been reported that Williams has already entered the portal.

If he wants OU I don't see them waiting around to see if he finishes faceplanting. Tepper just needs to tell him to pursue it. Dude is trash in the NFL. Hell, he very well may prove to be trash at the high NCAA level.

If Rhule got a call….I’m sure it is just OU working on contingency plans if their top options end up not working out.   I just don’t see how he could actually be high on any list at this current point in time.

That's false. Spencer Rattler entered the portal. Caleb Williams is in wait and see mode though rumors indicate it's under heavy consideration pending the new coach.

Bc the reality to the fans of a team is not reality. 
 

The reality to everyone except CAR fans is that Matt Rhule is seen as a coach who did really well at Temple. Then turns a dumpster fire Baylor Bears team into a B12 runner up and plays in the sugar bowl. 
 

Then comes to Carolina and through the first 11 games of this season is basically .500 without CMC and Sam Darnold, PJ Walker, and off the couch Cam Newton as his QBs. He has also built a top 5 defense. 
 

So we can say what we want about Rhule. I don’t necessarily think he’s a great NFL coach. But not everyone on the outside analyzes every down of an NFL team the way fans do. It wouldn’t shock me at all if Rhule got an offer from OU. I’m 50/50 on whether he would take it or if he’s the type of guy who really believes his system always works and wants to stay to prove it.

I don’t have any sources near the team anymore like I did years and even more years ago. Everyone I know that are at the college level or close to other groups say Rhule is 100% staying in Carolina unless he loses out. But they also know jackshit. By then most of these jobs will be filled. If he leaves, the next couple weeks will have to be it. Plus he’s on a bye this week so there is that.

He expressed a total commitment to coaching at Baylor just a little before taking the Panthers job (signed an extension too if I remember correctly).

Literally can't trust a word he says. He came off so authentic when he was hired. Now all I hear is a man who thinks he can talk his way out of anything.

      Another Bryce breakdown

      By rayzor · Posted

      then we're stuck.  tbh, at this point i would settle for just making it interesting. forget winning a superbowl for now. just get a team that can win games consistently and hope that it's enough to get to the big dance.  we want superman. we aren't getting superman. we had him and we blew our chance with him.  find a way make it work and hope that we can with this little guy and quit wishing our lives away for the second coming of superman. it just ain't happening.

      Gonna have to strongly disagree with you here. Here are the last 20 Super Bowls - only two of them IMO had QB that didn't play like Superman to get them there/win the game/both, and that was Peyton in 2015 and Ben in 2005. Even then they both had that ability, Peyton was just old and Ben young. That said, there were flashes in the pan like Foles in 2017 and (to a lesser degree) Flacco in 2012. But even counting that, it's 4/20. 20% odds aren't good enough and Bryce was absolutely drafted at #1 to be a guy that elevates an entire team and plays like Superman. If he can't do that then it's a failed pick, full stop. Being a poor man's Teddy doesn't cut it for a #1 overall and that's true for any team, not just Carolina.

      the problem is if we're waiting for Cam v2, we're going to be waiting decades longer.  our best hope is that bryce is better than we all think he is and that canales is able to work some serious magic with him and the scheme to help him live up anywhere close to the potential we thought he had. he's a smart kid. we just have to be able to have a situation that allows him to use his smarts.  the truth with cam was that een he had to have a system tailored for his skillset coming into the league. the difference between him and luck (which was the debate in '09 when we thought luck was an option) was that with luck, he could be placed in any offense and it would work...hence the higher floor he had  than cam. cam, though, needed an offense that was built around him to reach his potential. he could have done alright in a more pro-style offense, but to reach his ceiling (which was seen by a lot of people as being higher than luck). i don't think having to have an offense tailored around what you can and can't do well is a problem for people who can develop around them...after they've truly identified what those can and can't items are. we didn't have that last year. i think we have that this year. we want a guy who can carry a team on his back, but those kind of guys are very rare. we don't need to spend our time trying  find that guy, because even when you have them there's no guarantee that they will be enough.  championships are won, quite often, by teams who learn to compensate for less than the greatest QB play. you have a great defense and can protect the ball while wearing out the other defense and you've got a chance.  we don't need Bryce to be superman (despite where we drafted him and what we paid to get him). we just need him to be able to run (manage) a good offense.
