It didn't work for him here. I never believed in the guy and he lived up to my warning after Rivera was fired that we might be replacing one guy with a worse guy.

But I don't have any ill will to him now that he's gone. He made a lot of mistakes and his vision wasn't realized here -- or even possible in the pro game. If he's going to be really good, he'll learn from that and change. If not, the college ranks will open up for him again and he can rebuild his reputation.

If he can learn and grow from his own mistakes and shortfalls, then he has an opportunity to get to the NFL and work again. If he gets the chance, he might make some waves then.

He just wasn't ready for this stage in his career.

Screw him. Tell us, Fhule, why you brought in 900 players from Temple and Baylor and treated them wildly different that other, better and more talented, players?  Did you really think that people wouldn't notice that you played favorites and let the team suffer because of it. 

That idiot will never coach in the NFL again.

This certainly looks like Ruhle doing everything he can to get his name out there and get some PR traction for a big time college job. I bet he isn’t happy with the colleges that have been sniffing around and wants a bigger fish to bite. 
 

people looking for head coaches have tape at how awful he did here. He’s probably gonna have to get humbled again and realize he ain’t gonna be at a place like Wisconsin or Nebraska and settle for a mid major or very low level P5.

He quite literally won the lottery.  Why in the hell would anyone want that grind of a job having to deal with 17 18 year olds and all that comes with that?  Dude if you want to work do some commentating but even then I would question why.   70 million dollars is a poo ton of money and you could never spend that in 5 lifetimes

Watched the entire interview. He doesn’t get it. Hearing him talk about what a NFL coach is and looking at what Sean Payton says it is…very different.

 

Exactly. NFL coaching is about x's and o's strategy and managing grown men. College is about recruiting and relationship and blah blah. Rhule is not a strategist he just wants to talk and sell his brand. He's not a fit for the NFL.

if I was a power 5 school I would be making a hard run at Deion Sanders.  Hard.  Especially in a NIL world.   Would be so easy to get recruits to flood into his school.

I think Sanders probably is in a weird spot though.  In his little time coaching he already has had a big impact with HBCUs.  So there probably is some pressure to stay put for him.

    • overall agree on the draft grade as a whole on on each pick, but every time I read (and I have read it more than once) that we "gave up two firsts" for Bryce, I am confused. We gave up the 2024 first, but we swapped 2023 firsts, so we didn't give up anything there. We did give up our former first rounder in DJ, but I don't think thats what you mean as one of the "firsts" we gave up.
    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
