Matt Rhule Fired

Do any of you want Geoff back on staff? Because wherever Rhule lands is likely where he ends up for his next gig also.

Huh? What should we have learned?

Have we hired a coach in the past who had success, went to a bigger school, and left us in a worse situation? A coach where we looked back and said, "In retrospect, that guy was too desirable of a coach for us, we never should have hired him"?

Are they actually buddies? I must've missed that somewhere along the way. I thought the only connection was Geoff replaced Rhule at Temple.

Yes. Rhule attended several GT practices after Geoff was hired. Rhule is who recommended Geoff for the Temple job when he left.

Remember O’Leary also liked Collins and gave him a good recommendation. Maybe Collins is a good buddy and fun to have around. Neither of these successful coaches seemed to perceived what a failure as a head coach he turned out to be.

Collins is a good recruiter and a hard working coach. He had to be a better than average DC given his track record but I expect a lot of that was based on talent and letting them play.

He isn’t a good HC. He was inexperienced and didn’t know what he didn’t know. He had some unique ideas that just don’t work and he couldn’t figure that out or how to pivot once he committed to a particular path.

That’s because he not only had unique ideas, but he also talked so much öööö about traditional things like depth charts that he couldn’t go back and be traditional.

Most college coaches just don’t do well as NFL head coaches. I suppose Rhule didn’t forget how to coach. Saban didn’t do well in the NFL either.

There's Pete Carroll & who else that's worth a öööö- Coughlin, Switzer, Jimmy Johnson?

You want some guy that breaks school records to follow you? Geef was the ultimate choice. They buy the car, then they realize it had been under 16' of water in Ft Meyers & there's no warranty and no money back return policy
