AU needs immediate impact. Rhule won’t get the time needed to do it his way. To coach at AU the minute your hired the minute your exit interview begins. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bro Johnny Mac 1,469 Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 Rhule shouldn’t be option 1 or 2. If Prime and Kiffin fall through, you can’t do much better than Rhule as a third option 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JHead seems to think he’s a pretty good recruiter. Rhule apparently is very analytical with his program’s recruiting. Think Harsin, but successful. We may not always have the most 5/4 star guys, and that will probably piss us off, but apparently he’s really good at finding the right players. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll take Rhule if we make Lane or Deion tell us no. I think he's a solid coach but i'd want Grimes before Rhule. We have a realistic chance to make a splash hire considering our job is the best one open. GO BIG! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t have links , but the higher ranked the player the faster the impact. Rhule will not get years to build. The AU fan base is pissed and wants positivity yesterday. We are worn the hell out lol 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But don't s*** on Luka because you missed on Giannis and Steph. That is silly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We know we’re in an interesting place when lane is “safe”. Safe in that he’s experienced with a good track record. But he seems like been at half of the P5 already - he’s a … restless personality. And that has consequences. But he’s a definite huge upgrade. (I much prefer Deions “straight up” approach). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This hire more than anything else needs to be a elite recruiter. Prime fits the bill. Lane was really good at recruiting at Tennessee and usc. He’s been great recruiting in the portal at ole miss to help bridge the gap with the disadvantages that come with recruiting high school guys at ole miss. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUwent 3,833 Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 (edited) Alright, so I think Hayes is an idiot--promotes the "Harsin is victim!" narrative--but do we believe what he claims "one Power 5 coach" said about us?

We’re in a 5* war zone. If you don’t think they could head butt uga/uat in recruiting - it’s really a non starter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say he is far down the list, but then again AU doesn’t care what we think Neither did Heupel at UT but look at them now…you don’t just want to win the press conference you also want to win the actual conference. Watch how quick the people quit going after some losses. We need vision, infrastructure, someone who can build and manage a program effectively. Most IMO proven are Kiffin and Rhule.

Why would you want the guy who has never proven to be a successful HC over the guy who has proven he can be successful HC at two places that were in the pits before he got there. You don’t rebuild without recruiting and development. No disrespect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
