Paul Rhoads update

[cyfanatic]

I still love Rhoads and wish him the best. I'd be okay with spending a few months a year coaching HS football with multi-millions in the bank. Doesn't sound half bad at all.

Yep...a nice way to ease into retirement! Good for him!

 

[DeereClone]

True. But SOMEtimes he did not stumble a bit and said EXACTLY what he meant.

Damn I love that guy.

 

[CycloneDaddy]

I think for a lot of coaches, coaching at the high school level is probably the most fun for them because its basically just teaching football. No recruiting, no NIL, just football. He's made his money, so good for him.

You have never talked to the Dowling coaches …

Hmmm.....I think this was just a ploy by Mrs Paul Rhoads to "retire" somewhere warm but keep him out of her hair a little bit.

 

[CYdways432]

Great area! I can think of worse places to work!

I hope he sold them on his mad riffing skills. (Oh the memories)

 

[cstrunk]

I'll be there in June... maybe I'll be lucky enough to cross paths and say hi!

This is TOTALLY AWESOME!!!!

Nice pants.

Damn I love that guy.

Still gets me to this day….

 

[cycloneML]

Wondef if he'll do any teaching too? His presser could be cringe but he's actually a very bright guy. Good for him and his family. He absolutely wanted to be here and win. Hell, I'll admit I was worried he'd go to Sconnie.

I refuse to believe Alvarez and the other pros at WI ever seriously considered him.

Public University coaches get IPERS correct? I know Rhoads wouldn’t be vested but Ferentz is…wonder what he would pull in a month in retirement?

If you work for one of the regents universities in any capacity, money is automatically stashed in a retirement account for you. You cannot opt out. However, you CAN choose between IPERS & TIAA-CREF. IPERS is Iowa only, TIAA-CREF is national (for educational institutes), which is why many of us opt for TIAA-CREF - it's more portable.
No doubt Ferentz has a large amount in retirement. If he's 72, he HAS to start taking some out monthly. But Rhoads would have had a retirement balance when he left here.

Well you got me there. I’m not sure what it was about Madison that made a Mormon uncomfortable…..

This is Great!!! The guitar is upside down but who cares. I love it!

I think the fine gentlemen at WRNL added the guitar.

The guitar is upside down but who cares

It looks like an upside down bass guitar, too, but we're splitting hairs. Some lefties just restrung a right handed guitars - Hendrix and Cobain come to mind. I don't think I've ever seen someone playing a restrung bass upside down. But I believe McCartney does play a right handed guitar without restringing it in Get Back (fantastic doc for anyone that hasn't watched it, Beatles fan or not!) His main bass didn't didn't have a top/bottom, it looked the same either way. A double bass (and other orchestral strings) don't come in right or left handed versions. If you are a leftie, you use your right on the bow and left on the strings, like a right handed guitar/bass. Cue the "More you know..." music

Worse ways to spend your 50’s with millions in your bank account.

One trip to state street and GA was out of there.
