Matt Rhule has been so successful because he doesn't fit the "NFL Head Coach" mold.

The posters that are left defending rhule are clearly his family members or tied to his coaching staff.  Its blatantly obvious.

Nothing like having your choice of 1st offensive player on your board, then acting like they he won’t be given a starting role. He’s a rookie but throw him in there with the ones and let him learn and adjust. If Icky is not a day 1 starter, Rhule should be fired before the 1st game.

I thought your starting offensive line needs to time gel work together as much as possible to know each other’s tendencies. It’s like we do things to make it harder on our players, not playing BC last year when we knew he looked liked the best option. Now we’re intentionally not giving the best LT in the draft a chance to get acclimated as early as possible. What the F… did Cam Erving do to earn his spot all year last year someone help me understand this man’s logic.

Difference is that those teams don’t have much option along their oline. Luckily for us, we do.. for once.

 

also, I thought icky was splitting his reps with the 1s and 2s….?

[Mr. Scot]

From the article...

If there’s been a constant in Rhule’s second real training camp (the Panthers didn’t come to Wofford in 2020 because of COVID-19), it’s that no one is going to be handed a starting job.

Not Mayfield. Not center Bradley Bozeman. And not the aforementioned “Ickey,” the former NC State standout who was the first offensive player taken on Day 1 of the draft.

“To me, Ickey’s a rookie. He’s gotta earn everything he gets, and he’s got a long way to go,” Rhule said. “He does some things really well naturally. He’s unbelievably powerful and talented. But there’s a lot to this game. There’s a lot of nuances and techniques and all those things. He has a long way to go. He’ll get there, but every day he’s gotta work.”

Maybe it’s owing to his background as a college coach, but Rhule is not about anointing many players as starters before they’ve stepped on Wofford’s campus. There are exceptions. Former Los Angeles Rams offensive lineman Austin Corbett jumped into a starting job at right guard, while veteran safety Xavier Woods slid into the first-team defense alongside Jeremy Chinn from Day 1 in Spartanburg.

“I don’t think it’s fair to make decisions about the depth chart unless it’s blatantly obvious,” Rhule said. “But guys who are battling after a week, you’ve gotta (get) these guys to settle in.”

Rhule has made it clear that he’s in no hurry to name a starting quarterback, nor has he given any indication when he plans to do so.

Nah, you're much better off forcing your top 10 OT draft pick and newly acquired former #1 overall pick QB split reps in a farce of a competition before ultimately naming them the starters like everyone knew they would be all the whole you accomplished nothing more than denying them valuable reps with the starters.

Options like Pat Elflein and Michael Jordan?

Those guys are currently starters.
