What the hell is plan B? Blake Anderson or Sonny Dykes? I'm sure Anderson is a great guy. He certainly sounds like a coach when speaking, but his teams consistently struggle in non-con and bowl games. Dykes is all Sunny and no D. Rhule's entire staff would be gone to the NFL, meaning no Snow.

I'm not saying it's time to panic, but it might be time to panic!

Sports Illustrated should stick to being a swimsuit magazine, they know very little when it comes to actual sports!

If the Jets or Giants are looking for a new coach...be worried.

As opposed to the majority of this board who knew Rhule would have Baylor in the top 10 after that 1-11 year? He may stay, he may go.

But if the Giants give him whatever he wants, why would he turn it down given that he's from New York and might never get that kind of offer again? He'll have the ability to immediately turn his entire college staff into NFL assistants, significantly increasing their future head coaching prospects (at the NFL and college levels), especially guys like Nixon, Joey Mac, Cooper, etc.

I was partially just looking for an excuse to use that Baylor Line GIF. But Jack Bauer is correct. Be worried if/when the Giants/Jets jobs open.

Weren't the Jets talking to him last year with him responding "NO"?

There is no point panicking because it will accomplish nothing. And this report is just a bunch of speculation in a mailbag page.

I saw one site had these coaches ranked on the hot seat.

#5 Giants
#8 Jets

This was written by a guy that depends on his wife's essential oil business to pay the rent of his studio apartment in southern Illinois. If he had any insight on real world matters at all he wouldn't be writing articles for $200/week.

We're worried...why? Because a SI hack just makes a guess if he will be gone or not with no real facts behind that said guess? Did some just forget all that CMR has been saying lately and getting out in front of these speculations way early?

And don't forget the newly signed contract and huge buyout he agreed to.

Right, and the buyout would allow us to reload nicely

I stopped listening to SI when they put James Lynch on 2nd team all-American. Idiots.

What about Jacksonville? Would Tom Coughlin call him?

I would not be worried even a little bit.

Stop reading that trash... Rhule aint leaving. He saw that Briles alMost got in and this team was a couple plays away from undefeated and a playoff berth... He is gonna start closing the big fish to finish this recruiting class and make a run at the Natty again next year.

These coaches love it here!

He said no b/c Jets management wanted to have the final say on his assistants. Jets fans have been *****ing about it since. Gase is likely getting fired after his first year, and they'll offer Rhule anything he wants.

I think it's clear Rhule eventually wants to be an NFL coach. He's in a position now to set his own price, hire/fire whomever he wants, and possibly have a significant say in player personnel as well. Those opportunities don't come along often. Remember, Penn State was in the exact same spot with O'Brien. To act as if it's out of the question is delusional.

Stop trolling idiot. For the love of God have you actually listened to anything CMR has said lately? Start with the Finebaum interview where he FINALLY said/admitted he's better suited for college coaching and leading/developing young men than the pros.

If you want to get your panties in a wad about it, have at it. Ignore what's been SAID. Everyone here always *****es that our coaches never FIRMLY say enough that they want to be here enough and aren't leaving. Rhule has actually done that and here you go again panicking.

He's not leaving now. Period. Get a grip and try to enjoy yourselves for a change. SMH......

Yeah.... the OP is a troll (probably Tcu). Constantly trying to throw mentions about "if" Rhule leaves/when Rhule leavs... players leaving early, etc...

hey Troll, get a life

I wonder how many people who are now panicking about the possibility he might bolt for the NFL were saying all kinds of asinine/snide things about him 2 years ago? There was "Little Matty", "Jersey" & so on along with plenty of nitpicking criticism as if we were going to win the Big 12 a year after the fake scandal created in Austin.

I dont expect him to leave at this point...

He has a chance to build something REALLY special here and not have a short leash...

Basically if his wife and kid love it in Waco...his kid can have stability that he won't have if he bolts to NFL

Did I miss it? It's a compelling headline, but this was a dude responding to a bunch of Twitter questions about NFL jobs. He says, "Rhule will almost definitely be an NFL coach," but offers no argument as to why that may be, aside from mentioning his name as a possible candidate for a bunch of jobs.

I'm sorry, but I've learned to trust the words coming out of Rhule's mouth with this stuff. What he has said this year is pretty clear: No college program is going to get him and it's not the right time for the NFL. I don't need a Twitter mailbag story to convince me otherwise.

The problem with this article is it comes during the recruiting period and will be used against CMR and Baylor.
historian

I'm not worried at all. As long as he has success, especially the dramatic kind of success we are enjoying, there will be talk. We might as well get used to it. CMR has repeatedly been clear that he's staying. He has plenty of intangible reasons to stay and the only reason to leave would be greed. Considering how much he is making for Baylor, after awhile that should be less of an argument--especially considering the intangibles (& how much the IRS takes from high income earners).

He has unfinished business and wants to see it through. And after we when a Natty (if we do), then he might be so thoroughly in love with Baylor that he will stick around anyway--and maybe seek a repeat. We could easily have him for 20-30 years.

As for recruiting, CMR & staff have proven repeatedly that they can bring in great talent and top recruiting classes. I see no reason to doubt that this will continue.

I think the kids coming in will be listening directly to CMR and not a clickbait SI article. And being on the hot seat doesn't hurt Hermensa much does it?
