So Huskerboard I just wanted to know what grade would you give Nebraska for the hiring of Matt Rhule so far.  That includes how excited you are for the hire and everything else since he took over.  For me I gave it a B - when he first got hired bc I felt there were better suited candidates but at the same time realizing that he brought Baylor back from the dead.  When he took over and started recruiting Nebraska class which was ranked in the 60's on the 247 website I believe and when the early signing period ended he had gotten it down to 25 which speaks on how hard him and his staff have worked.  After it's all said and done I give him a B + or A -.  I feel him and his staff have done a outstanding job of bringing in guys they want.  Yes their are question marks about the staff hires but feel Matt Rhule has brought in who he thought could change our fortune just feel like recruits and Husker Nation have to see results on the field to make the grading of him higher.  Also the buzz around here has been good but no where close to the buzz that SF had when he got hired.  Yes I know he was a former player and we all wanted it to work.  Don't know if we are all gutted from him that it didn't and now we are not putting all our eggs into the basket with Matt Rhule quiet yet.
I believe life is like gym class.  Pass or fail.

It doesn’t matter if you’re the tether ball champion at Fuzzy Bush Elementary or trying to lock down a solid recruiting class.

This one is a pass.  Good thread Matty.

My amazing body was built on milk and cookies!!!  Which makes me think, shouldn’t it be cookies and milk? I mean, you eat the cookie, and then drink the milk to wash it down/cleanse the palate.

I agree with you and I’m not advocating that Prime is a better hire, but he does have the #1 transfer class in the country right now. 


And overall their class is at #22. With less than a month full time at cu that's impressive. 

But back on topic, you can't grade homework that ain't been turned in.

I get you and alot of people with that assessment on him playing a actually game yet before you judge him.  All I'm asking is how do you feel before that with everything that has transpired with the coaching staff hires, his recruiting class and the buzz around the program. There were alot of people that got burned from our previous coach it's ok we all can heal and move on lol.  If your not actually judging him before he coaches a game cool beans.

I'm not sold on the staff he's assembled.  Lots of question marks if not downright red flags.  Not just on the offensive side, TCU's 3-3-5 was thoroughly exposed last night.  D+ maybe?  Seems like we could have gotten a lot more proven guys with all the money we're throwing around.

The recruiting efforts have been solid, but I've read Colorado currently has the #1 transfer class in the country.  Colorado!  So I hesitate giving a A here.  Maybe a solid B.

A+ on winning the press conference.

I would really love to have Rhule and White do a pod cast on what they think went wrong with TCU's 3-3-5, what Georgia did to exploit it and what adjustments they would have made to fix it...

 
Georgia has way more talent. It wasn’t scheme which killed TCU last night. 


Ehhhh if your QB is casually jogging into the endzone, following 2 lead blockers who don't even need to block anyone, then that has basically nothing to do with superior athletic ability and everything to do with the defensive scheme being exploited.
