most Husker fans and others close to the program, myself included don't feel this way at all.
Rhule and Dylan have addressed this.  Rhule says the media is lazy and makes this connection. (not local media)
Mahomes didn't come up hardly at all this entire season with the local media or with Dylan.
There are plenty of fans that root for the Huskers & Chiefs that like this stuff.
ya'll are certainly entitled to your opinion
(but, yer wrong)

the fan boys that cover the squad weren't critical of qb1? very strange.
idk if i'd call it mentally unhealthy w/o knowing more but it's most definitely weird.

That's great that Rhule says that and everyone can claim it didn't come up, but the actions also showed different. Finding it weird is weird? If there was QB at Florida, that oddly looked like, had the same hair style, same sunglasses and the same exact warmup as Baker Mayfield, which included the same arm motions, jumping motions, you wouldn't find that a little odd?

Come on.. maybe mentally unhealthy is a little too far, but it's flat out weird or obsessive.

no, because they are there every day and they know it's not a big deal
Dylan didn't make a big deal of it, some fans did, and the national press certainly made it a story
I'm guessing you and most other fans, not Husker fans, don't follow the local media
It really hasn't been much of a story at all this season, mostly just his freshman season

Dylan said that he had the hairstyle before Mahomes.  Yes, the same style sunglasses.  yes, Dylan did a few warm up things that Mahomes does.  Not for most or every many games.  Probably at the urging of others.

yes, Dylan Raiola trains with Jeff Christensen, Patrick Mahomes' private quarterback coach, and also works with Mahomes' strength coach, Bobby Stroupe,  This connection has been highlighted in the media
I suppose that's weird.

I’m honestly not passionate about this topic, but let’s get this straight. Dylan had that hairstyle before Mahomes? Mahomes has this hairstyle at Texas tech.. so Dylan started doing it when he was 9? He’s doing the warm up things by the urging of others? So it’s not him it’s the pressure of others?

This dude talks about it. He talked about how Kobe modeled himself after Jordan, but he wears the same socks, hair, sunglasses, number, walks out the tunnel and jumps and does the same arm motion.

This is his exact quote.. this year..

“I can't control God made me look like this and play the same sports."

not passionate about this topic either

it's not a topic or story in Nebraska (except for some Chiefs fans that enjoy it)

That’s fair. I simply can’t talk about Michigan coaching search or Sherrone any more. So little Mahomes became my sidebar.

Michigan back-up QB Jadyn Davis hitting the porthole. makes sense. kind of crazy to me that a kid ranked as a 4* and top 100 player in the nation couldn't even see the field for Michigan in 2024- even after he enrolled early- with the absolute shitshow Michigan had going on at QB. after that knew he was never going to play a down at Michigan- and it probably told you the kid just didn't have the goods and was overrated as a HS recruit.

doubt he does anything anywhere else, kid has the most fucked up funky throwing motion/arm action and throws the ugliest football this side of Tim Tebow.

I've liked Dylan Raiola.  I really thought he was going to be a major difference-maker at Nebraska, and perhaps he could be with a better supporting cast or better coaching or whatever?

Anyway, regarding how he seems to be a Mahomey-cloney...

he will be good if he lands in the right spot. very talented arm, big strong kid.

Nebraska unfortunately for Raiola has an absolute dipshit clown dog shit head coach and no offensive line whatsoever. tough spot for a QB to be in. he'll probably go to Oregon light it up for a year and then be a 1st round pick.

i liked rhule at baylor & thought he was a great hire for nebraska. if he fails up there add him to the massive pile of ****ty coaches i've ridden for led by charlie weiss & his schematic tactical advantage.

I wish him success
Hell, I even rooted for Jeff Sims after he left Nebraska

as for raiola fornelli fell all over himself dunking on him in a podcast i listened to earlier this yr.
i haven't watched him enough to form an opinion but we've seen dudes do well after transferring who previously struggled (dillon gabriel) & others not so much (miller moss) so we'll see.
