I watched Matt Rhule's intro presser at Baylor. Here's what he talked about that day:
— Max Henson (@PanthersMax) January 7, 2020
- Build great men
- Let your great players be great
- Don't beat yourself
- A team that makes everyone proud
- Let's have fun while we do this
Thank you, @CoachMattRhule, for all you've done here at Baylor.#SicEm, Coach Rhule. pic.twitter.com/iOrIOWIsvj

From @gmfb: The #Panthers swooped in and hired #Baylor coach Matt Rhule in a stealth move. One big draw was #Panthers owner David Tepper being willing to put money into the sports science program that Rhule wants. Resources won’t be a problem. pic.twitter.com/CIB52vDldE

"What makes the @CoachMattRhule hire so special for the @Panthers?"

Hey @panthers fans, here’s a snippet of our conversation with Matt Rhule:pic.twitter.com/M1BWVos9cX

Rhule said he has complete control of hiring his staff in Carolina, and is in the process of talking to prospective assistants.

Congratulations @Panthers on getting a GREAT coach and an outstanding leader. Gonna get interesting in Charlotte.

If there’s anyone that deserves to be a head coach in the NFL is #mattrhule

Matt Rhule, a former walk-on at Penn State, worked his way up the coaching ranks by taking just about any job, for any position group. In 2015, he became the first Temple head coach to beat Penn State since 1941. I was there, and struck by the ferocity of his pass-rush (10 sacks)

The Carolina Panthers have hired Matt Rhule - who they believe fits their desire for "old-school discipline, blended with modern processes."
— Jourdan Rodrigue (@JourdanRodrigue) January 7, 2020
He's got quite a task ahead of him. Here's where he starts: https://t.co/TBgxyeLz8E

Panthers owner David Tepper made a bold, expensive bet on Matt Rhule, whose experience - albeit at the college level - suggests it could pay off big.https://t.co/TmvDoRQaLa

Is this daring partnership going to work for former Baylor coach Matt Rhule and the Panthers?
— Scott Fowler (@scott_fowler) January 7, 2020
My first Rhule-oriented column for @theobserver on this bold move for a Carolina team that desperately needs... well... a lot of stuff:https://t.co/4yZbzzSA4R
Matt Rhule took over a 4-7 Temple team in 2013 and led them to 2 of their 3 10-win seasons within 4 years.
— Field Yates (@FieldYates) January 7, 2020
He took over a Baylor team rocked by scandal in 2017 and had the Bears vying for a playoff spot within 3 seasons.
The man can build and lead a football team.
Matt Rhule to the Carolina Panthers!
— Emmanuel Acho (@thEMANacho) January 7, 2020
Panthers fans you got one hell of a ball coach. Rhule took the Baylor Bears from a 1-11 team, marred by scandal and turmoil, to 11-1... IN TWO YEARS!
10/11 defensive starters this year started on his 1-11 team.
He did it by COACHING!
Matt Rhule has coached:
— Josh Parcell (@JoshParcell) January 7, 2020
Defensive Line
Offensive Line
Linebackers
Special Teams
Quarterbacks
Tight Ends
Run Game Coordinator
Offensive Coordinator
By FAR the most well-rounded coaching candidate out there. #KeepPounding

"David Tepper was not letting Matt Rhule leave to go up to the New York Giants."
