Matt Rhule's tension to start Nebraska spring camp; Year 3 expectations

Matt Rhule's tension to start Nebraska spring camp; Year 3 expectations

Author: Omaha World-Herald March 26, 2025 Duration: 47:56

The guys start by studying Rhule's quotes, including a clarification on Dylan Raiola's body weight after last week's reaction. The two talk about the vibes around the program at the moment with several new staff members settling in and plenty of big roster decisions looming.

Next, Sam and Evan discuss where NU has fallen short in Rhule's first two years, and some of the randomness that has partaken because of a missed kick, bad snap, or other specialist issues. The guys question whether all of the mistakes can be cleaned up by new coaches. The two look at where Nebraska will change its strategy, particularly in building around the quarterback and finding ways for Raiola to be more aggressive and hit big plays.

The two end the episode with a look at Nebraska baseball's road trip that has plummeted the Huskers in the Big Ten standings and how the team can recover after another road loss Tuesday night.
