The Hooded Smock has left Waco, Texas for the Carolina Panthers as it was announced on Tuesday that Matt Rhule will no longer be the head coach for the Baylor Bears.
It’s probably a good career move for Rhule, who turned Baylor from a laughingstock into team that was one play (?) from making this year’s College Football Playoff. It was also a good career move for him. Baylor won four games by six or fewer points and most of those came down to the last possession. All four could have easily been Ls. Not that Baylor wasn’t good this year — they were — but their profile was about as good as it could have been given their performance.
