This is actually a fair point Thee. Is the shoe about to drop and Rhule wants to get out before he's tied to the mess?Thee University said:I am very disappointed.REX said:
X?
Thee?
Mili?
I'm just going to try and gather my thoughts on this one
It causes me to wonder if Rhule knows something bad is about to happen in Waco.
I won't cry about it. Life goes on and we will find a replacement.
Art's starts fires (like AFCA), usually catches himself on fire (like AFCA) while the BOR usually let's the fire burn itself out instead of calling in the fire department (adults who put out fires).80sBEAR said:Something bad is about to drop? What the **ck else can drop? JEEEEZZZZZ!!!!Thee University said:True.ColomboLQ said:
Oh boy. Thee won't be happy about this betrayal.
I won't be crying over a year from now if it happens. We will find somebody else and continue to rebuild the program.
I think this is a sign that Rhule knows something bad is about to drop.
I thought he was a horrible coach per the experts here.

I hope not.
Art Briles has been gone for almost two years. This is beginning to sound like the "it was George Bush's fault" BS we listened to for eight years. I wonder if it is going to come out that we still have some bad dudes horsing around at 1-11 instead of 11-1? We shall see.

Since he is under contract, doesn't the Colts have to get permission from BU admin to talk to him?
He's going to tell someone in an NFL locker room a "tragic story " at half time while down 31-0.boognish_bear said:
"I told the kids in there, I love these kids," Rhule said in his postgame press conference on Saturday. "These kids are warriors. But I really believe God put me here not so things like this didn't happen, I think God put me here because things like this are going to happen.
"I said, you guys told me you want a staff that wasn't going to quit on you. I won't quit on you. Don't you quit on me, but I won't quit on you."
Rhoades will be on with Smoak tomorrow. Hope Smoak really grills him on this topic.Great CaesarsGhost said:

None of this would have happened had Arthur realized he was at Baylor and not TT or UH. We gave him everything and he _______ it up.80sBEAR said:Art Briles has been gone for almost two years.

Rhoades is a job hopper on rent here. He doesn't care.

Baylor's Matt Rhule isn't a fraud for looking at NFL
By Mac Engel tengel@star-telegram.com
Despite a one-win season in his first year at Baylor, football coach Matt Rhule is drawing interest in Indianapolis for the Colts' coaching vacancy.
January 10, 2018 08:43 PM
Matt Rhule prayed long and hard before he left Temple University for Baylor University, and after one year in Waco he's decided that's enough.
Baylor, don't blame him for looking to go.
Per a report from ESPN's Adam Rittenberg, the Indianapolis Colts interviewed Rhule last week for their head coaching vacancy.
When Baylor officially hired Rhule to replace Jim Grobe, and Art Briles, as the full-time head coach on Dec. 7, 2016, I wrote, "Landing the former Temple football coach is a major get for Baylor, but this feels like a temporary hire.
"Although he spent just one year as an NFL assistant with the New York Giants, he credits Tom Coughlin as having the most influence on his career. Rhule just has the look of an NFL guy who is climbing the ladder in college; Baylor best enjoy this charismatic man while it can."
Rhule would have been a fool not to take the interview, and a bigger dummy not to take the job should Colts owner Jim Irsay make him an offer.
The first-year Baylor coach isn't necessarily a fraud as much as he an opportunist, a realist, and another college coach. Rhule took on one of the harder jobs in Power 5 football not named Kansas when he signed a seven-year deal to coach the Bears.
Baylor has a lot to offer recruits, but he is still competing against Texas A&M, Texas, TCU, not to mention Oklahoma, Texas Tech, Oklahoma State, and whomever Alabama wants in his region.
He's not coaching Ohio State, Penn State, Oklahoma or Alabama. He potentially could leave Baylor for an NFL head coaching job. That's Greek for, "BYE."
NFL jobs call only every so often, and you don't turn them down. Especially a team that expects to have a healthy Andrew Luck coming back in 2018, and has the third overall pick in the 2018 NFL Draft.
The NFL is where he wants to be. Rhule was the New York Giants offensive line coach in 2012, and he went to Temple the following year.
Coaches who post consecutive 10-win seasons at Temple, such as Rhule did in 2015 and 2016, are hard to miss.
With a depleted and young roster left from the rape scandal that engulfed the school, Rhule and Baylor finished 1-10 in his first season in Waco.
Rhule most certainly told everyone in and around the program that he is there for forever. They all say that, and five minutes later are out the door.
Does that make Rhule a liar? No. It's the profession. Of course Rhule thinks he's going to be at Baylor forever, in that moment.
Even if Rhule is not offered the Colts' job, Baylor now knows firmly where it stands with its head football coach. The Bears are but a stop on his way to the NFL.
Smoak confirmed it though. How possible is it really?Robert Wilson said:Golden Helmet said:

Entirely possible. Hope so.
