Rhule: We don't need to make any changes, we just need to battle through it right now.

It's working, we just can't see it... so keep battling through.

Sound logic and top tier strategy. Can I buy that management and leadership book?

If you're banging your head on the wall and it's getting bloody, just keep on smashing that head into the wall. At some point the wall will give... no one should worry about the bloody head giving way before the wall.

But if you have 53 heads take their turn at the wall, you may lose 52, but I bet that final one cracks it open!

If Rhule is going to Nebraska he will have to be fired way before the season is over. They won’t wait to mid January to hire him.

Does anyone else seriously think after what he has done in the NFL there are any college teams saying I have to get me some of that. Rhule has been exposed. He is a fraud. He might get a job at Podunk U, but no real FBS college is thinking Matt is the solution to all their problems.

That is the way it usually works in the NFL.  I don't know about Rhule's contract, since Tepper was busy trying to outsmart the rest of the NFL with him.

Most NFL coaching contracts are structured like personal service contracts.  So, he can be fired as the coach, but he continues to be paid but he can't go elsewhere for the term of the contract. 

He can't just sit on his arse for four more seasons and collect the rest of the money.  It is almost like collecting unemployment, where he is required to try and secure another coaching position.  But, if he goes elsewhere, there has to be a buyout (offset) to the former team.

Rhule makes roughly $8.5M a year with his contract with the Panthers.  So, if Northeastern Southwest Mississippi Institute of Technology State A&M pays him $3M a year, he'll get that and $5.5M from Panthers.

Here is a link that talks about coaching contracts in general.  Again, whether Tepper ran with terms normally in NFL coaches' contracts or tried to outsmart everybody, well, who knows?

Pretty sure college teams don't have to wait for him to be fired.

Bobby Petrino left the Falcons on his own to take the Arkansas job.

    • if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying 
    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
