Hopefully troll work but Rahne is listed as head coach of ODU in Wikipedia. I would be surprised. Seems to me that the next coach ought to be African-American unless no one suitable has applied.

Don't care what his race is but I want our next HC to be someone who can take us to the next level.

Happened last night too. Guessing it’s PSU trolls trying to meme this into existence.

It’s certainly racist that we didn’t let the NFL season play out to assess Tomlin’s availability before we went forward with our hiring process.

Are you kidding? An NFL head coach coming to a G5 school?

Seems odd to say they “ought” to be any color? I’d like to see it as well, but it “ought” to be the most qualified person no matter what.

Not who I would have hoped for, but I’ll be rooting for him.

I think it's fair to say we were all expecting a more recognizable name in Larry Fedora (j/k).

I'm interested to see who he brings on O.

Wait, are you folks sure Dabo S. is out?

We'll have to wait until after tonight's game to be sure, I guess.

Is this guy going to sell tickets ? Will his name sell tickets ? Will he recruit better ? Is this a wow hire...Not even close. On the cheap again ??? It is obvious the our current staff is gone with the possible exception of Blackwell stays because he is defense. The rest...

Well, I guess we have to change our banner to say “Rahne ON!”...
