8 years?  Jesus Christ thats insane

I thought his template was getting reject athletes and coach them up, at NU he is going to get the cream of the crop and fug it up

Apparently they offered him a contract earlier in November and he turned it down, they came back this week with a bigger # and more years plus more assistant money and he accepted. I'd not be shocked if it's like 8+m a season plus 4-5m for assistants. Lol

And because of his contract here, the Panthers are basically paying him to coach at Nebraska the first 4 years. 😂🤣😂

Are you seeing that somewhere because there’s offset language that basically the panthers are only on the hook for the difference in guaranteed money And if Nebraska offers more guaranteed than owed it’s a wash an panthers owe nothing.

From the athletic article on the hiring. Says part of the reason the AD at Nebraska wanted Rhule was because of the Panthers contract making him a relative bargain the first 4 years.

His salary for remaining years are offset by what his Nebraska contract is.  So it all depends on what they paid him.  Basically,  our contract gives a nice fluff but I imagine he's still getting paid nicely by them.  We probably got out of 20-25 mil of the 40 remaining. It's all Teppers money anyways.

Hmmm I don’t that’s fully accurate but I also don’t know the language of his contract but here is Florio’s take.

Beyond the obvious fact that there’s no reason to wait, the move puts Rhule immediately in play for one of the various head-coaching jobs that will be available at the college level. With the Panthers getting a dollar-for-dollar credit against Rhule’s buyout on what he makes elsewhere, it’s in Tepper’s financial interests to put Rhule in position to have a land rush for his services.

That’s my thinking

Jeff Nixon will probably be the first to go with him.

No clue on who Matt will hire as a DC…none…I have no one in mind who would be his DC (sarcasm)

Evan Cooper found his next job I see lol. 

Nixon, Cooper and Snow all make sense. So do Siravo, Lombardi and all the lower level assistants.

If he somehow manages to steal someone valuable like Campen or Tabor I'm gonna be pissed beyond belief 🤬

    • Who believes after Rico went off that Dave will go back to Chuba, go very pass happy again, run Chuba 7 times, and give Rico 5 carries?   he has a weird obsession with wanting to pass it over and over with Bryce. 
    • I never once said I believed in Sam. Only that he’s proof that the Jets and Panthers are bad organizations. You spent all that time on me. I’m flattered. 
    • Story of the year. Get down massively to Arizona, look like your first NFL game to throwing for more than 300 yards and getting the team to within 40 yards of a come back win. Get down 17-0 to Miami, execute the offense to outscore the Dolphins 27-7 the rest of the way. Defeat the Falcons 30-0 throwing for like 150 yards. Personally, I think it would be great to have retained Darnold. Darnold in this scheme with Canales would instantly make this team a contender for the NFC South. However that didn't happen.  I don't know what you do because when they run game gets shut down, and it will get shut down, you have to depend on Bryce to play efficiently. On one third down ball to someone (I forget who), when he was rolling out and made that throw close to the sideline to convert, the TV people would talking about how special that was. What I saw was another receiver streaking all alone 45 yards downfield, with about 5 yards of separation. Even while rolling out, an average QB is able to deliver that ball, signed, and sealed for a touchdown. Bryce's lack of deep ball ability is the achilles heel to this offense and it's something that can't be fixed.  I would love to be able to draft Carson Beck. I think he took a lot of crap at UGA which now seems unwarranted. Looking at how inefficient their offense is now compared to how it was with Beck at QB, and now how he has gone into the system Cam Ward was in and outperformed him massively in just pure execution and efficiency, along with the physical traits, tells me he will be a Top 3 pick. We won't have a Top 3 pick though. So what do we do? I have no idea. Canales is too good of an offensive coach for us to get a Top 3 pick and Bryce is inconsistent enough to get us a Top 10 pick. So absent finding a guy like Nix with tons of experience and good enough measurables, which requires great evaluations, I just think we are stuck.
