It could not possibly matter less. Dana Holgorsen has been doing this for over thirty years. He is, as Rhule said, one of the best minds of his generation. He truly is.
Being one of the best minds of your generation is irrelevant if you're being forced to run things you cannot coach. A coordinator's job is to institute the philosophy and identity of the head coach. If your head coach has no philosophy or identity, you're a rudderless ship and even the finest navigator will never get you to where you want to go.
Matt Rhule has repeatedly demonstrated he has no feel for the offensive side of the game. He cannot identify talent on the field, he cannot identify coaching talent, he cannot be trusted to replace Holgorsen. I am not even certain Matt Rhule could tell you who the best offensive coordinators in the country are right now, never mind convince them to coach for him.
What talented offensive coach is going to leave a stable job to coach for Matt Rhule and be micromanaged by a guy that has no clue about the offensive side of the ball?
Nebraska is on its 3rd OC, 3rd DC, and 3rd STC in 47 games under Matt Rhule. It is the head coach. It has always been the head coach.
Nebraska has fired offensive coordinator Dana Holgorsen.
Statement from coach Matt Rhule:
“Like so many of you, I am angry, I am disappointed and I am frustrated with our results this season. As the head coach, I am ultimately responsible for every aspect of our program—including wins and losses—and it is my responsibility to make changes when they are warranted.
“While there are many areas that need improvement, our offensive plan and execution is simply not working. Earlier today, I relieved offensive coordinator Dana Holgorsen of his duties. As I have recently shared, Dana has a fantastic offensive mind, he is a strong leader, and he has done great work here at Nebraska. But simply, we need a change. Co-offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach Glenn Thomas will take over play-calling duties.
“I will continue to evaluate our program through the season and certainly at its conclusion and make additional changes where I believe they will help us win.
“The Nebraska fan base has high expectations and I embrace them, and I also know of their passionate support of the young men in our program. I hope they will continue to be there for our players with very important games still ahead. Our entire program is determined to finish this season strong.”

Matt Rhule is such a snake he figured out how to make the talk not be about losing the exact same way 3 weeks in a row and instead tugged at hearts of Husker nation with a feel bad story to take center stage instead.
This is master manipulation tactics.

4th and 18… all the pressure is on Washington.
The crowd is in to it…
Timeout.
Add it to the long laundry list of timeouts by Matt Rhule that bailed out his opponents.
Unbelievable.

I know everybody is upset but look at the bright side...
At first you lose big. And then you lose close. And then you lose close. And then you lose close. And then you lose close. And then you lose close. And then you lose close. And then you lose close. And then you lose clo

Scott Frost has more wins against Top 5 opponents this season than Matt Rhule has in his entire career…
I think that qualifies as Nebraska losing the bye week

"...The thing that's even more [brutal] is, it's almost disrespectful to the game, is the lack of conditioning or none of it at all."

FYI: If you are defending Matt Rhule. You are defending a coach who's biggest wins are against a #21 East Carolina team and a #20 Navy team. @steven_sipple @Sean_Callahan @RobinWashut
