Why would Penn State have offered Rhule?I think he is kinda right.. like most things in this world, the truth is usually the opposite of what the herd believes is true.
A lot of people supported Scott Frost long long long after it was evident that they needed to make a change. The fans and players had to endure another 2 years of setbacks because enough fans kept supporting Scott. If you look at it in that lens, the unwarranted support did lead to more and deeper failure.
Unless Matt catches lightning in a bottle, which is possible, he'll be canned in 2 more years, if he doesn't leave first. I was positive he wanted out of here this year and am very surprised he didn't take that Penn State job when it first opened up.
There is no objective measure anywhere that puts him in the same league as the guy they fired.
