The gulf between Nebraska coach Matt Rhule’s résumés in the collegiate and professional ranks is miles wide.
On campus, Rhule is 47–43—a record that belies two wholesale turnarounds at Temple and Baylor. In the NFL, Rhule went a pedestrian 11–27 and was dismissed during his third season with the Panthers.
The difference in his experiences has given Rhule perspective as he prepares for his first season with the Cornhuskers, which he outlined in dramatic terms in a June 30 profile written by Pete Thamel of ESPN.
