Nebraska SquareOffs

As stated previously, I also think Nebraska (with all its positives and history and money) could have done better with a much higher profile coordinator.

I can't get excited about him. I think we could have done better. Time will tell.

Not getting my hopes up, time will tell.

My respect and confidence in Matt Rhule has dropped significantly!! This is the A #1 position /coaching that needed to be addressed IMMEDIAATELY!!

Is this a serious question?

The is the first and a huge stupid thing Rhule is doing. He needed to clean house. This looks like trouble but I hope I'm wrong.

Being a husker fan and seeing the way the o-line played tells you all you need to know why we shouldn't of kept Riola! GO BIG RED TILL I DIE!!

He had a whole year last to change the line and didnt do it! Bad choice by Ruhle!

We did not see much improvement this year on the Oline. I dont necessary think the fault is the players necessary, its the coach. I like Raiola, but, he is missing something. Maybe the weight room will help.

I've read the why's on the good side but reason I'm saying it's bad as it's so easy to blame in on talent and players which is why I almost voted good. Some of this belongs on Duvall for strapping on cement boots to our o-lineman but our o-line did NOT improve - the regressed so...bad move

Our OL was TERRIBLE! They couldn't run block and made up for it by not being able to pass block! There was not improvement in the OL as the season progressed, in fact, they got worse! With no good OL there is not improvement! THINK MATT!

O-Line was the weakest part of the whole team and showed zero improvement during the season. Total head scratcher.

I did not see improvement in the linemen throughout the year, which does not give much confidence. I realize we need substantially better players, but we also need a coach who can get every bit of talent from whomever is playing. I did not see that this year.

Was easily the worst position group on the team.... why would we keep the coach from that squad?

Our quarterbacks had .5 seconds to make a decision...

Worst performing position on the team. Coach or scheme, I don't know, but if that who MR wants, he has to live with results.

The offensive line showed no improvement under Riaola and in fact regressed in their run blocking. He is also very inexperienced compared to many other candidates including John Garrison. Rhule said " it starts in the trenches". Put your money where your mouth is!

This is honestly the first time I’ve seriously questioned Rhule. This makes 0 sense. The O line is 99% of the reason Casey got massacred this year. We would have been an 8-4 team at minimum with a serviceable O line. And don’t get me started on improvement, that was VERY minimal

There is very little upside to this choice. There are many qualified offensive line coaches that have produced at this level. I would look into getting one of them. I also believe that Raiola did very little to warrant him being retained.

Watch the season, what evidence do we have on the field that shows Rialo is right for Husker Nation in a rebuild year.

Bad unless Rhule is getting something or someone in return.

Dumb move should have kept Bill Busche.

Line was awful this year

They didn't play well this year

We need a proven OL coach that builds fast, agile and strong blocking graders

HELL NO!!!! Is this a trick question, that O Line was one of the worst I have ever seen, he needs to go

If you are coach with discipline methods of developement of the players, you can turn an offensive line around very quickly. Most of the same lineman are coming back. And now is he going to sell them on being tougher and more disciplined? I dont buy it! Very bad move by Ruhle!

Wasn't the season bad because the offensive line didn't do well? If so, then, why keep Raiole?
