FYI...
Giants coaching rumors: Baylor's Matt Rhule in the mix? - ( New Window )
I know Baylor was a mess when he got there  
Greg from LI : 12/11/2017 3:59 pm : link
But 1-11 is 1-11
Sounds

Like a shot in the dark.
I mentioned this a few years back..  
Sean : 12/11/2017 4:01 pm : link
Always has felt like a NYG coach.
He floated the idea back when Ben/Jerry were fired.  
Diver_Down : 12/11/2017 4:02 pm : link
It was in his "Ones to Watch" segment that he does on Good Morning, Football. He emphasized that it was way outside the box but noted the connections to the organization.
did Matt in SGS mention him at one point?  
JonC : 12/11/2017 4:03 pm : link
I remember him mentioning a Bicknell.
Did some very noteworthy work with the Owls...  
bw in dc : 12/11/2017 4:04 pm : link
Got him on many radars.

Not sure if he was overwhelmed at Baylor, or there is still a hangover from the Biles catastrophe, but they were awful this year...
Queens guy  
BIG FRED 1973 : 12/11/2017 4:11 pm : link
Pissed when he took the Baylor job ,Had a lot of fun at those Temple Coaching Clinics when he was there ,He is a great guy and is hystrical lol
maybe he'll be able to  
bluepepper : 12/11/2017 4:11 pm : link
really connect to the Giants players. They're 2-11. He's 1-11.

He did well at Temple....  
njm : 12/11/2017 4:16 pm : link
taking 2 star and 3 star kids and coaching them up. Wasn't wildly innovative as far a schemes were concerned. I'm not sure his skills translate to the NFL.

I don't hold Baylor against him as he walked into that mess.
I like the idea  
BigBlueDownTheShore : 12/11/2017 4:17 pm : link
His style of football would translate well to the NFL, and he in the past has done more with less. Baylor is a place that was irrelevant until recently, so getting back to relevancy could be challenging.
Between now and the new hire being announced there will 4,123  
SterlingArcher : 12/11/2017 4:20 pm : link
coaches being named to fill the spot. Sit back, relax and wait for the announcement. And of course there will be another 4,123 post saying why did they hire this guy and not this guy!
Maybe he will be the next Giants hc  
Breeze_94 : 12/11/2017 4:22 pm : link
after Mike Smith is fired in 3 years and he has turned around Bayloe
That sounds on the surface like a horrible idea.  
Boy Cord : 12/11/2017 4:27 pm : link
.
1-11?  
ZogZerg : 12/11/2017 4:28 pm : link
He'll fit right in...
Looking at his resume  
bluepepper : 12/11/2017 4:32 pm : link
have to say no way he gets an NFL HC anytime soon. One year in the NFL and his college career hasn't even been at the top rung. One year at UCLA and one year at a shattered Baylor program. The rest at the likes of Western Carolina and Temple. No offense to Owls fans but c'mon.
I wondered whether he'd be attractive to the Giants  
yatqb : 12/11/2017 4:48 pm : link
given his history with them and his success at Temple.
oh Boy

A history with Mara, check.

All other factors do not matter.
How do you go from not peeking  
idiotsavant : 12/11/2017 5:17 pm : link
Outside the inner circle to outer stratosphere? Strange days.
Rhule has been flying up the career ladder since his brief time here  
Ten Ton Hammer : 12/11/2017 5:26 pm : link

Looks like he could use....  
MOOPS : 12/11/2017 5:28 pm : link
a little fixer-upper help at Baylor.
You could really bring  
Pete in MD : 12/11/2017 6:03 pm : link
up any coach that has been with the organization before as a “possibility.”

we need to double down on stupid at least a few more times to learn our lesson and revisit the 70's. Not the sure the Eli benching compares to the fumble.

Yes, I mentioned him last week. There were only a few young coaches who you could say potentially had any grooming from the Coughlin years. Rhule was one of them and the Giants liked his work on the offensive line as an assistant and wanted him to get more seasoning at Temple as a head coach. Very much similar to Coughlin as WR coach and then going off to BC.

Thanks, Matt.
