Tonight on The Five Heart Podcast we will be discussing this week’s bombshell news coming out of Lincoln from Coach Matt Rhule’s press conference on Monday. 1) We have a new play caller; Dana Holgerson. WTH?! Welcome to the new way of doing things in college football. Coach Rhule has given schools a brand new outline on how to handle coaching changes. No need for the embarrassing and shocking “firing of coaches” mid-season. We have discovered a new ‘PC’ way: keep the old coach on staff and talk up all of his strengths, how impressed you are with him etc., etc., and you get the new guy simultaneously, which makes fans FOCUS ON THE POSITIVE—the age-old ‘Bait and Switch’. ‘What can this new guy do for us?’-Husker Headlines all week. Coach Matt Rhule might be considered a genius just for this one issue, but wait there’s more! 2) Since the GIANT shake-up, Rhule said on Monday ‘We won’t be having press conferences the rest of the week because you (media) are too good at your jobs’. This is interesting because now the media won’t be able to get any information out there for our opponent USC on Saturday. We have no idea what, if any new plays will be used on Saturday. What Holgerson views as our strengths on the offensive. Rhule even said, there MIGHT be player change-ups... 3) Is Dylan Raiola hurt? Is Heinrich Harberg starting? Coach Rhule said we are preparing for both. ’He didn’t know anything yet’. Another genius move by Coach because if I’m USC, we don’t know if we are preparing for a throwing quarterback or a running quarterback. This makes the news that USC put out last week (they also had a bye week) look unplanned and premature as they said they are benching QB Miller Moss and starting Jayden Maiava. Why give your opponent 2 whole weeks to prepare for a new QB? Matt Rhule seems to be rewriting the (unwritten) rules in college football and I for one can’t get enough of it. Just like the song by Lil’ Troy says “Wanna be a baller, shot caller...But there’s got to be a better way, A better way, better way, yeah”. Rhule is finding a better way.
