Matt Rhule hired by Nebraska

[TeamZero77 1,784]

ESPN and Fox just reported it. He fits that school and should do good things. Of course, Bo Pelini went 67-27 in 8 years and 7 bowl appearances and they fired him. Frank Solich was even better than that and got fired. 

Tom Osborne going 250-49 with 3 Natty's at that school has ruined them.

That dude deserves to be on the Mt. Rushmore of college coaches.  Nebraska has zero recruiting grounds and he dominated there for 20 years.

It’s okay we didn’t want him either 🤦‍♂️

True, but the landscape was a wee bit different back then.

Not really. Pretty sure it was flat, and full of corn back then. 
 

But yeah, you’re right.

How does he fit there? I wonder if Auburn ever looked his way..

Looks like we struck out with 2 of our 5 top candidates. My guess that Auburn is going to screw this up looks more legit by the day...

Agreed!

If he can resurrect that program, then he can turn water into wine.  All good wishes to him

Nebraska figured out 'roids before anyone else did. I'll never forget Rimington and Steinkuler just wrecking double teams and driving them 5-10 yards off the ball with impunity.

They were one of the first if not the first programs to have a S&C program & it completely changed their program
