As Seminole fan I feel your pain. College football just isn’t as good as it once was. There’s no loyalty, no stability, and certainly no depth. The never ending coaching carousel is only going to get worse. Players are only in it for the money. Anyway, good luck with your coaching search.
FSU is not as much as a lateral move. Especially with guys that are 30+ years old that grew up with the brand. FSU is still a high value name brand that ranks high in viewership despite them stinking this year. I agree with Steve tho. The ceiling for them can be a natty any given year if they hit on the talent in the southeast.
Natty ain’t happening for them next year! Will donors tolerate a losing season again next year! Tony White will need time! Hopefully the fans can understand that in our impatient world! Tony struck GOLD with Ty and Nash!
@@Drdarold agreed. Not winning the natty next year but maybe above 0.500 at the very least. the HC lost his will to coach after not making the playoffs even tho he was 12-0. I’m sure the tell all book will say he gave up on his team after
Elijah Robinson is a must hire! He would help out in recruiting, specifically in texas, and he would help with the retention of current defensive players. We would probably have to find a new DB coach because i dont see Butler sticking around if he is overlooked for the DC position
Leaving to take a lateral position at a 2-10 program, in a lesser conference, with a head coach who could get fired if they have one more bad season kind of speaks volumes. There has to be some stuff going on behind the scenes. Too many cooks in the kitchen with the mid season coaching additions where philosophies could have clashed, Rhule and White maybe disagreeing on the 3-3-5, something. These next hires will make or break Matt Rhule's tenure here at Nebraska. That's just where we are
That could be the very reason why he would be interested. If he gets outsted, gives him a very likely chance on being considered or at least, being the interim while they search.
Sucks losing your DC. BTW , FSU has sued the ACC and looking to get out . FSU and Clemson are the income generators for football in that conference. Tom Osborn and Bobby Bowden were very good friends .
He got our defense to a top 25 defense for 2 straight years then goes to 2-10 FSU that has a lot of talent and should be able to have another top 25 defense for 2 years then get HC offers..business decision imo..not to mention he probably doesn't think our defense will be as good next year with some top guys leaving such as Robinson and Polar Bear
My concern with growing within like Phil Snow is that we are seeing a snow ball effect of our top defensive players (Jemari Butler) and recruits go with him. We need someone to bring their players to our roster. Like Deion, Kurt etc. This is a make or break year for Rhule. Anything less than 6-6 puts him on the hot seat. Can't think long term anymore. You got to go make a serious splash with another coach who will bring players or bring out the brics truck in the portal. We dont have the recruits or depth on the defensive side to hire within
@@stevecampbell1308 ye that’s what I’m saying. Jemari and others have already announced today they are leaving with him and we aren’t prepared (depth and recruitment class) for those blows. You got to go get someone who will help fill that void or at very least make it a well battled spot

Worst of the three big Florida schools and their HC would have been fired if he had a lower buyout
@@ncaalover12also the last coach to win a conf title

Worse but definitely win that ACC before Miami obviously if they can't with cam then FSU definitely will have a better chance next year@@ncaalover12

Appreciate the insight on Tony White and Terrance Knighton! 👊🏻
Feel bad for HS recruits. The new signing period really puts them in tough spots with coordinator moves like this
Nowdays coaches are mercenaries. There is no loyalty to a program. Coaches will jump ship the moment they feel a better job (in their minds) opens up.
This is the first part of the domino effect. Jamari Butler is now going into the transfer portal, and Terrence Knighton is set to follow Tony White.
Nebraska will be fine hope they get back in top 10
Knighton is the loss and who he takes with him
Elijah Robinson is a must hire! He would help out in recruiting, specifically in texas, and he would help with the retention of current defensive players. We would probably have to find a new DB coach because i dont see Butler sticking around if he is overlooked for the DC position
Coach Rhule will do what's best.
All I want is that the DC is currently a coach at a College program. So hopefully they bring some guys with them through the portal.

Smh thats the problem your crazy if you think this is a lateral move don't allow one bad season to confuse your place against fsu

@@MrMitchellJRGaming no sir lmao no way he becomes hc if anything they would go with gus!
We expected this day would come.. I suppose people are gonna freak out like usual now.
Lateral move is a lot different than losing him for a HC job
@@Max-v7xAnd no one expected it to look like this.
Or that he would take Knighton with him
Rhule has declared both will not be at bowl game so
Better nail the replacement or Rhules ll's days are numbered.
Not a lateral move by any means. That FSU logo holds weight, hence why they were able to poach Nebraska’s DC after a 2-10 season.
Why, is the big question. Why are they leaving. Especially why is Knighton following white instead of staying with Rhule.
They will really enhance their head coach possibilities turning fsu around for going to a decent power4 program
Coaches move… it’s not always a bash on the team that loses the coach, there are a lot of moving parts. Sometimes people just want a change.

Jojo white and terrence knighton and the pips have left and the sky is falling lol.
Nebraska fans are professional over reactors. Rhule was going a different direction with the defense with or without Tony White. Simple as that.
NEBRASKA SHOULD PAY HIM MORE TO STAY!!!!!
I’m tired of hearing that the ACC is bad. Folks wake up look at the the head to head games ACC vs SEC etc and the ACC more than holds itself.
Exactly, also, the ACC has won more football titles the past dozen years than the Big 10, 3-1.
Going from Nebraska to Florida State isnt a lateral. This is not the 90s. going to FSU is a bigger move.
Hire Jim Leonhard for DC.
