Big wigs in Lincoln have neither the brains nor balls to make a hire like that. Mostly likely they keep Rhule or hire another retread like Dan Mullen.
If we can beat Ohio, we can beat Michigan State, Rutgers, Maryland, Bowling Green, North Dakota. That is six wins...only one less than last year and his career average. Most idiots would give him another year as we wouldn't want Nebraska to be viewed as entitled or think we deserve more than 6 wins over MAC quality opponents.

Until they can stop the regents from meddling about the entrenched clown in the athletic department that have their own agenda unless urban or Sabin is hired we’ll still have a football team in disarray

I'll tell you who I still have questions on is Dana. We scored 42 or 49 points today but I swear he does some **** all the time that just makes me smh.

After we went up two TDs in the 3rd basically just running it down there throat it was like he became determined to just pass the ball. Am I the only one who noticed that? Our WRs were dropping balls all over the place and we finally got the run game going and abandoned it.

I know we want balance and NEED it but not for the sake of being balanced. When u get em down put your boot on their necks. That gave them an opportunity to get right back in it and they did.

I hate all the talk about being a tough running team but then soon as you get up 2 TDs you get cute. I know most OCs think they are the smartest people in the room and Dana is no different. Simply put when you got something going...STAY WITH IT.

MSU in Lincoln is probably a win.

On the road...unlikely.

I was told in very clear terms as campus security was removing me from the AD's waiting room yesterday that I'm not going to be the head coach, no matter how many times I ask. So I know for sure one person who won't be.

OR I just need to try harder.
You just need to be so bad as a coach that you get fired mid-season and kicked out of the facilities...then Nebraska will come calling with 79 million guaranteed.

I agree but I’ll give them a pass (no pun intended) these first 3 games. It’s possible they were trying out some different things, getting guys reps, etc once the game was in hand. And I’m okay with that.

Score 49 points and no offensive identity 😅

That was a good one 👍
Oh we have an Identity. It's called brother Rhule salvation show. Throwing TD passes with QB1 and the starters on the field while up 21 with under two minutes left is classic Matt Rhule's LDE

I like Dana’s offense but I was thinking the same things yesterday. I kept muttering “run the damned ball”. My wife asked “ do you think they hear you?”. 🤔

I think a balance between run and pass is obviously the best IF you can be competent at both. Run/Pass balance keeps the defense guessing and doesn't allow them to overload on your strength.

if run working, keep doing it until they begin to stop it THEN pass. this is not something new

Lol. We have a revamped Oline, a new QB1, young rbs, a completely revamped defense. The starters need as much game reps as possible before we get to conference play. It was clear as day with all the penalties and a few miscues.

Only you would be upset about the starters playing after what they looked like the first 3 quarters. My guess is you would've been pissed we weren't getting our starters reps, if he would've sat them. There's no reasoning with someone like you.

Matt Rhule will be coaching through at least 2030 thanks to him, his agent and Dannon.
$63 million buyout this year
$55 million next year
National news reporting how greedy and outrageous the contract is
The best way out of this is for Rhule to win a few more games. Win 7 or 8 this year, win 8 or 9 next year. Maybe everything is better here winning at least 8 or 9 games. Maybe somebody wants him and he leaves. But don’t extend him again unless we take a much bigger step. Like CFP.
