I haven’t even looked through all of Rhule’s collegiate seasons, but this is wrong. His Baylor teams beat ranked Oklahoma State teams two years in a row. 

Oklahoma state was not ranked in 2019 when Baylor beat them, the only team they beat that was ranked that year was Texas who was ranked #25.

His college record vs ranked teams is garbage, i might have been off by a few games but it is still abysmal.

“The difference is, in Dallas, I had my entire coaching staff from college. I had my administrative assistant, I had my P.R. director, I had my trainer.

His admin assistant, his PR person and his trainer.

And Jimmy Johnson was by far the exception and not the rule. Not to mention the fact JJ left Miami for more than just the opportunity to coach the Cowboys. His Miami University team was one the most crooked programs in the country at the time.

And the Cowboys haven't won sh!t since.

After some additional review, I think the site I am using accounted for ranking at the time of the game, whereas the Google link seems to account for ranking at the end of the season.

Probably so, but beating a team early in the season that is ranked is a lot different than beating a ranked team late in the season. plenty of pretenders in an early season ranking.

UNC football- preseason ranked the last few years only to end up 7-5 and playing in the "Nobodygivesashit Bowl."

This is such bull crap. He spent four years at Temple and three at Baylor. He took Temple from a two win team his first year to a two-time division champ in a four year period. He took Baylor from a one win team riddled from the Art Briles scandal to an 11 win team in the Sugar Bowl in his third and final year. If those two rebuilds are “somewhat improv[ing]” a team, you and those like you were never going to give Rhule a fair shake. 

Those aren't championships.

I give him all the credit in the world at the mid-tier college level, but before I hand over full control of an NFL team to anybody, I'm gonna need to see a national championship at the very least.

As it was, if Tepper had simply handed him a standard head coaching job, I'd likely be a lot more charitable right now.

Unfortunately, that's not what happened.

Like Urban Meyer?

I would never hire a college coach to begin with, unless he had significant NFL experience. 

But if I did, national championships would not be a requirement.   Winning a National Championship in college is as much or perhaps more about the program you are coaching as it is about your abilities as a coach.  

One can be the greatest coach in the history of football but not win a national championship at Duke.  Or be a below average NFL coach, but win multiple championships at Alabama.

If you are the greatest coach in the history of football and you’re winning at Duke, you are going to get an opportunity at a school that could win a championship.

Also Alabama isn’t an automatic ticket to a championship.  They were not a great team when Saban took over, and they won’t be after he leaves.

I’m not so sure about requiring a national championship to be interested in a college coach at the pro level.  But Rhule didn’t beat anyone.

For me, I just wouldn’t be interested in a head coach from the college ranks.  NFL experience seems to win out vs purely college coaches.

Maybe, possibly.  But national championships in college are more about the program.  If you aren't at one of the elite ones, you aren't winning a national championship, no matter how good you are.

You’re right about an elite program being required but Steve Spurrier is a great example of this.  He had success at Duke and went onto Florida.  Granted that was 100 years ago and it’s one guy, but coaches who win at low tier programs get a shot to move up.

Neither would I.

If the overwhelming majority of their resumé is ollege coaching, I'm probably not interested in hiring them for an NFL head coaching job at all, but if I were it would only be with some pretty high stipulations.

    • Idk man, I think it’s necessary.  There’s people working 9-5s everyday that get told poo about what they aren’t and what they’re not capable of and they’re working for scraps.  These guys are making millions.  People are watching and invested because their team and fandom is a part of their identity and a big source of pride.  When someone like Bryce comes in and is given chance after chance after chance after proving he is not worthy of the position he’s being gifted, and he continues to be the biggest reason above any that we are losing, yeah…  I think it’s fair to call a spade a spade.  Am I saying Bryce the person is trash?  Bryce the person is a piece of poo?  Absolutely not.     I came up in an era, especially in basketball, where if you were fuging up people heckled the poo out of you.  I played in rec leagues as a teen where the fuging parents were calling kids trash and yelling poo like “TURNOVER!!!  TURNOVER!!!”  “CANT DRIBBLE!”  “CANT SHOOT!”  And that’s adults screaming that poo to kids like we were in the fuging Rucker lol.🤣🤣🤣  I went on to play basketball at a collegiate level and with professional players in different settings.  What those experiences as a kid taught me was to see if there is any merit to what people are saying, and if there is, then work my ass off til they can’t say that anymore.  Come back better, tougher, harder.  And I did.  If kids can figure that poo out, an adult calling another adult who is bad at his job while making millions and millions of dollars will be just fine.  
    • I have tried to like this team, lord knows I have tried. BY9 is a nice young man, if I had a daughter he can take her to prom, but he ain't QB1 and he's not Cam or Delhomme Chuba is a average RB, he isn't Stephen Davis, he isn't J-Stew McMillan has the makings of a good WR, but he isn't 89/Moose D. Brown is a great player, but if the game was on the line I want Kris Jenkins       I miss this brand of football, even in the bad Jake games the games were entertaining It has been nearly 8 years now of watching numb football
