I doubt he is there for 7 years. Either he flops and is fired or succeeds and moves up and out. Though Baylor can be a good job now that they have solid facilities and have outstanding geography for recruits (Texas).

The thought I've seen floated out there is that Rhule was waiting for the Penn State job to open up after this year thinking that Franklin could be gone if he missed a bowl game. With the season PSU just had, he decided now was the time to leave.
Great coach, but I don't think he has any ties to Texas? That may be his one stumbling block. Only time will tell how big of a stumbling block. He definately will not be able to recruit the way Briles did
Mack Brown had more ties to ISU than Texas when he took the Longhorn job. Like Brown, MR needs to hire some Texas roots, which I assume he'll do with haste.
This. He'll probably go after some high profile HS coach(es). Baylor will come up with the money to pay them. Todd Dodge comes to mind, although being a UT alum, he may want nothing to do with BU.
Bill Snyder disagrees, he's adapted over time but there has never been anything flashy about what they do. The thing Snyder was able to was check his ego and win by any means necessary, even if by one point . Strong didn't understand (or didn't show) that slowing the game down on offense can help your defense, they looked like they were trying to be Oregon on offense and LSU on defense . Accepting that balance will be key for Rhule. All he needs to do is look to Strong for a perfect example of what not to do.
Strong was not a good coach at Texas. Anyone watching him scheme could see that. There were so many examples. But he was a successful Big East coach, yes.
And outscoring the other guy rationale isn't working in this league either. See Texas Tech.
Stoops wins by running the ball. So does Snyder. Dana has adjusted away from chucking it every down to a run first offense as well.

Hahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
you're right, Rhule's dead-eyed "I made a huge ******* mistake" look is hilarious.
"I can't believe I am making this stupid hand gesture in front of cameras!"
"If I had wanted to coach for a morally bankrupt fanbase, I should have just waited for the Penn State job. At least that would actually be a good job, and I wouldn't need to live in the ****-hole that's Waco, Texas"

You do realize you're not helping the whole "morally bankrupt" thing, right? I shouldn't be surprised though since you're a Baylor fan
