CommonCents Posted January 9, 2020 Posted January 9, 2020 What’s the over/under on games until this sucker gets punched by one of his own players?
fansince88 Posted January 9, 2020 Posted January 9, 2020 I'm scratching my head and wondering why the judgments? Great piece of a speach. Cant argue with his points. 1

But the question is not can he build and lead a football team in college but can he do it in the NFL? Some of the best to ever do it at the college level have failed miserably in the NFL at it. Two different animals altogether. That's my question. His only professional coaching experience is as an assistant offensive line coach (Giants). A lot of head coaching is having the contacts to hire quality assistant coaches. It has to be hard to develop the necessary contacts without being in the professional ranks.

They out together a hype video for Rhule. The owner walks up to the podium to his own hand picked music track. And that’s as far as I got so far... still like 30 mins to go. lol edit - so I’m about half way through watching this. I’m curious what other people think of Rhule’s opening speech? Am I the only one that thinks he sounds like a preacher, or a politician or something? I like what I’ve read about him though. Interesting hire for sure. Tepper is gushing over this guy. edit again - thought he did better during the Q&A. It was an impressive press conference and it gives you some idea about why he was a hot commodity as he's a good salesman. Seems like a Gruden/Tomlin/Carroll type. Plus, he completely turned around two football programs which is way more than a guy like Joe Judge ever did. 1 minute ago, QCity said: Good Lord.

Always a Buffalo connection... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matt_Rhule Early years Rhule grew up in New York City before his family moved to State College, Pennsylvania as a teenager. Rhule played linebacker at State College Area High School before walking on as a linebacker to Penn State. At Penn State, Rhule played four years under Joe Paterno and was a three-time Penn State Scholar-Athlete and an Academic All-Big Ten honoree in 1997.[1] While at Penn State, Rhule earned his Bachelor's of Arts in Political Science. He earned a Master's in Educational Psychology from the University at Buffalo in 2003.[2] . Yeah, no doubt he got Sandusky'd.

You could even argue John Harbaugh even though he didn't win a Superbowl.

PIZ Posted January 9, 2020 Posted January 9, 2020 Here’s our head coach’s hiring press conference. Sean seems much more genuine. 1
wppete Posted January 9, 2020 Posted January 9, 2020 That was the best introduction press conference I have ever seen! Great job. Look forward to seeing more from Matt Rhule.
Mr. WEO Posted January 9, 2020 Posted January 9, 2020 Tepper completely spanked the Maras with a new money power play. Maras: "tomorrow we will fly you up to New Jersey.....and yes, it will be Business Class!" Tepper: "I'm scrambling my jet now--I'll be at your house in 2 hours."

It's another rookie owner who got caught up in an interview "don't let him leave the room" moment. What's the percentage of college coaches who hit as NFL head coaches compared to NFL coordinators or positional coaches? If there was a sure fire path to success as an NFL coach then you wouldn't see two ex head coaches, a ST coordinator, and a college coach all hired in the same week.

Buffalo Boy Posted January 9, 2020 Posted January 9, 2020 (edited) I listened to coverage all day yesterday. Charlotteans are not unanimously sold on this guy by any means. A bunch wanted McDaniels , a bunch wanted Bieniemy. I felt like I was listening to a High School Pep rally on the radio. Still not the least bit sure of what I think about Tepper as an owner. In a radio interview Rhule said he was going to bring in an NFL veteran coaching presence to bend his ear and speak “ Truth to power”. Rhule stated he had been contacted by a bunch of NFL guys seeking a job. His father was a preacher. Edited January 9, 2020 by Buffalo Boy
