If you can’t bring a tactical advantage to the game you’re going to get exposed. There's zero evidence that Rhule isn't a good tactician. You're arguing he doesn't, but that doesn't simply make it so. His preacher style will be just fine. Lot's of players in the NFL are Christians. Lot's of them pray before and after games. Even if black and white players disagree on a lot of things, most of them are Christians and pray together. Plus, he's coaching in Charlotte, not NYC. Using the word "fraud" would imply he's not the real deal. He seems genuine as a person, and as a coach, you have no basis on which to call him that. If you don't like a person of faith wearing that faith on their sleeve, that's another issue entirely we can't discuss here. But don't simply use that bias to make wild accusations about a coach. 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our last 3 head coaches all have been merely coordinators with no interest on the other side of the ball and very very little talent as a team builder and head coach. Rex was the best of the three but bowles and gase are over blown coordinators and poor ones at that. Rex was the ultimate fraud. Tried to come off as the bumbling happy-go-lucky type, but behind the scenes got GM's fired and exposed himself as a snake. Hence why he hasn't gotten a job since Buffalo figured out (very quickly) who he is. @T0mShane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greenwichjetfan Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 Everything I’ve seen of Rhule so far reminds me of Herm. Tons of motivational speaker in him. Doesn’t work great without substance. We’ll find out if he’s got substance soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LockeJET Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 I love Rhule! He's a leader of men. Completely changed 2 college cultures around. He's also coached both sides of a team offensively and defensively. He's coming to lead not just coach one side of the ball. Already has NFL experience and eats, breathes and sleeps football. We'll see how this plays out but this is one hell of a hire and the dumb ass Jets lost out because they wouldn't let him pick his coaches. Like we do a good job of that anyways!!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm trying to find a list of NFL head coach salaries and it seems hard to come by. Anyone know where this would fall in, in terms of the rest of the HCs. I can't imagine we're paying Gase anything close to this. It's crazy, most head coaches are scheduled to make less then Quicny E. or Brian Winters. One of the most, if not the most important people in the organization makes less than Brian Winters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ultimate preacher/HC This is why Herm has been great at ASU as a college coach. It's perfect for him. I like Rhule as well but only time will tell. He got some low-hanging fruit at Temple and Baylor, programs in the dumpster and Rhule's motivation, stability and leadership turned them around quickly. But 19 year old college kids on scholarships are pretty easy to motivate, to instill some fear in, to develop and teach. NFL players are a different story. Many of them are already making more money than the coach is and they're under contracts where they don't always feel the need to prove themselves. You can't motivate a guy in Year 2 of a $35M deal the way you can a college sophomore fighting for a starting spot. I'm not saying that Rhule can't do it.....I think he can...and obviously David Tepper and his $70M thinks that Rhule can. But I think Coach Rhule may need to transform himself a bit, or at least channel his motivation through a different approach. We'll see.... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember Butch Davis, Erickson, Saban etc all can't miss college coaches who failed in the NFL because they lost the advantage of being able to recruit who they wanted and rebuild a program and then having a draft and cap to deal with. Or just not realizing that the NFL life they switched into isn't college and their ability to motivate is compromised by all the things you listed.

He took over a 7 and 6 team and went 1 and 11 in his first year. Baylor under Briles went 11-2, 11-2, 10-3 before he was fired after a 6 and 0 start the year before Rhule was hired. They lost their last 5 after he was canned and won the Citrus bowl destroying Boise State. Their record was 7 and 6 the year before Rhule took over. Rhule went 1 and 11 in his first season there. College football is a recruiting game and Texas is a great place to recruit college talent. Texas produces about 70 percent of the top college football recruits in the nation. Rhule did an excellent job. He will be far more constrained in the NFL when he will be on an even playing field in acquiring talent. The reality is he has proven not one thing at the NFL level as a HC. He's not a fraud but he certainly isn't a proven NFL HC. He's done a good job at Temple and Baylor. He's worked for some good staffs and has put together good college staffs. He is completely unproven as an NFL HC. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jets Voice of Reason Posted January 14, 2020 Share Posted January 14, 2020 Rhule took over a program that had Scholarship sanctions against it and turned it into a competitive program within two years. That’s impressive no matter what he ends up doing in the NFL. He’ll never coach here so that’s a moot point, but the Jets more than anything need a strong culture and identity. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
