I corrected it. It’s not teams that didn’t go bowling, it’s teams finished below .500 and Rhule is 11-5 vs teams who finished the year below .500.

Thank goodness there wasn't PED testing at Nebraska from the 1970-1990's....AM I RIGHT!
There wasn’t anywhere then. NU has had a strict PED policy for years now. Some places were/are helping their players avoid detection. I wouldn’t be surprised if we find out that Indiana was/is one of those places.
Maybe BIG RED needs to get back to the basics! If you know what I mean!
Looking at this information definately does not make me feel better about Rhule.
I will give Rhule credit as he tries his hardest to keep his job.
If he can get that Char-Mar Brown from Miami and two more DT's that are actually over 300 pounds, this could be a really solid portal season.

Sorry if it is in there, I didn't see it. Does this include teams that were 6-6 and lost a bowl game to go 6-7?
Ha ha. Another loser posting on another team's message board for some kind of a thrill.
Gotta give the staff some credit...with the sheer number of inbound portal activity, it gives the impression that they are at least attempting to fix things.
I mostly agree but Taco was responding to a troll. If you think the troll was right, even a broken clock is right twice a day. Trolls need to be roasted espec. when their sole agenda is starting shite on the board.
Nebraska took 17 from the portal last year. Technically 16 since Gilmore transferred right back out.
The problem with Husker football is not just the bad coaches they hire, but the lack of leadership. Where are the grown-ups? When AD Troy Dannen gave Matt the Hat an extension he must have consulted the University President Jeffrey Gold and/or the Board of Regents. Out of all these wise people no one recommended further evaluation should be completed before the university went whole hog on Matt the Hat? I have an old friend going back to my high school days who is friends with Gold. He tells me he is a very capable person. Someone dropped the ball in addition to Dannen.
What's interesting about Char-Mar is that he wasn't really having that great of a season outside of 2-4 regular season games. A lot of that is due to Fletcher being ahead of him.
But he's really stepped it up during these playoffs.
There wasn't a lot of parity starting in about 2007 to 2020, basically 4-5 team had a real chance to even sniff the national championship by November. I think we are still in the honey-moon period of seeing more programs have a chance, while the top programs fall back. Miami, Oregon, and Ole Miss weren't very good teams relative to top teams of the past, and so the product has weakened dramatically, but equally across the sport. I think we have 5-10 more years of fans being excited to see some weird teams like Indiana or Texas Tech win before people really begin clocking out. Watching LSU and Alabama play three times a year and in a 9-6 national title game was pretty ****** too.
Bad contracts are ubiquitous across the sport, especially if you want experienced coaches. They are very similar to hiring experienced free-agents in every sport. They have the agents and the leverage to really squeeze ADs and universities for every dollar. Much of this of course is because fans care about the "appearance" of caring or being competent. This is why NBA or MLB teams need to bring in free agents and not just rely on young guys, and it applies to coaches. The way the sport changes, it would make sense to bring in youth, energy, creativity and pay incentives but fans will rebel and agents won't allow such "smart" contracts.
Yeah, its all good....No stats or records are gonna scream or even whispher "Rhule needs an extension"...yet he got one.....I have a bad feeling we're gonna have to buy him out down the road....
