It’s a mailbag Thursday at the Locked On Nebraska podcast. As Matt Rhule’s Huskers progress through practices for Pinstripe Bowl against Boston College, you’ve got questions about all things that are on the minds of college football fans this month – NIL, roster limits and the College Football Playoff.Connor and Mitch have got answers. Where does Nebraska stand among its Power 4 peers in generating NIL revenue? Is Rhule playing the same game as other coaches in strategizing to get Nebraska’s roster to the mandated 105 in 2025? We’ve got a question about revenue generated from the CFP. Who gets it, and how much is there? Out of left (or center) field, remember Bubba Starling? Our hosts do. A listener to the pod wants to know how they felt 13 years ago about Starling’s choice between Nebraska and the Kansas City Royals. And we’ve got a question about punt returns. Why isn’t Nebraska better at it?For your next listen, check out the Locked On College Football podcast!

Heinrich Haaberg, the Nebraska quarterback of the past four seasons, is moving to tight end. Coach Matt Rhule mentioned it last week amid the flurry of news around the transfer portal and coaching carousel. Is this a big deal? We believe it is, yes. Connor and Mitch are here on this Wednesday to discuss the evolving tight end situation at Nebraska. Who’s in and who’s out for 2025? Were the decisions instigated by Dana Holgorsen, the new offensive coordinator, or Marcus Satterfield, the tight ends coach and old OC? Also in this episode, the Huskers added two more players out of the portal on Tuesday – a defensive lineman and a punter. Is Nebraska setting the market or reacting to the market in making its portal moves? And we finish the show with a look into the state of Florida, where James Williams landed after a stay in the portal and Scott Frost has hired a defensive coordinator at UCF with a name that we recognize in Big Ten country.For your next listen, check out the Locked On College Football podcast!

Nebraska running back Dante Dowdell entered the transfer portal on Monday. Surprised? You probably shouldn’t be, though this departure falls into the category of a surprise under the old guidelines of college football. Dowdell led the Huskers in rushing yardage and touchdowns in 2024.Connor and Mitch diagnose the running back situation in the wake of Dowdell’s apparent departure. What’s left? Nebraska likely needs to bid for portal running back, with just Emmett Johnson returning at the position with experience alongside a few promising young backs. Also, the Huskers are opening the 2025 season at Arrowhead Stadium. At what other venue would you like to see Nebraska play?And we finish with some basketball talk. Brice Williams is the Big Ten player of the week after his 30-point performance in a big win against Indiana. The Huskers are headed to Hawaii for Christmas. The outlook for winter with Fred Hoiberg’s team looks strong. Join us for a Tuesday episode.For your next listen, check out the Locked On College Football podcast!

Bowl practices are back in full swing at Nebraska less than two weeks ahead of the Pinstripe Bowl. And Matt Rhule’s defensive coaching staff is coming into focus with the reported selection of Addison Williams as the next secondary coach for the Huskers. Rhule is set to add four coaches on the defensive side to replace two departures. But have the Huskers improved their ability to develop defenders and coach defense this month? Connor and Mitch are here to analyze the situation. Nebraska kicked off portal-addition season with a bang in landing Williams Nwaneri, the former five-star defensive end from Mizzou. What is the impact of Nwaneri? And we can’t forget about long snapper Kevin Gallic, another portal add.Also, Nebraska volleyball is headed to Louisville for the national semifinals against Penn State. Sunday was a special day at the Devaney Center. We discuss the Huskers’ bid for another championship. Join us.For your next listen, check out the Locked On College Football podcast!

With all of the transfer portal and coaching news this week, it's easy to forget that Nebraska still has a game in front of them in two weeks. Connor is joined today by AJ Black of the Locked On BC Podcast to discuss the Eagles season, how the transfer portal and opt outs may effect the game, and how these two teams match up with each other. Will Nebraska's flurry of portal entries on the DL sink it for the Pinstripe Bowl? And one big 'will he, won't he' is still lingering for Boston College.

Another day brought additional movement in the transfer portal as three more Nebraska football players are set to depart – and all seemingly for different reasons. In better news for the Huskers, freshman defensive end Keona Davis is coming back, one day after he entered the portal just as the program picked a new D-line coach. Connor and Mitch deliver their analysis and answer your questions from the mailbag. Is college football fatigue a real thing, with all of the happenings in the sport wearing out fans? What is Matt Rhule’s plan with Phil Snow, who’s on the way to Lincoln to serve as associate head coach? Also, who are the top three transfer adds of the portal era for Nebraska? We finish with some talk about the 2025 Big Ten schedule, which was released on Wednesday by the league. And it’s a big weekend on campus in Lincoln outside of football. Indiana basketball is in town Friday. And Wisconsin volleyball returns, perhaps to take a shot on Sunday at blocking Nebraska’s path to the Final Four next week.  For your next listen, check out the Locked On College Football podcast!

A frantic start to this week around Nebraska football. Nebraska coach Matt Rhule removed the short-lived interim tag on Tuesday from John Butler. He is the new DC. Phil Snow and Terry Bradden, a new name to Husker Nation, are on the way to joining the defensive staff, too. And the transfer portal keeps adding names.Nebraska lost promising defensive end Keona Davis on Monday, but it got good news as several of Davis’ freshman classmates posted messages about their intentions to run it back with the Huskers. Included in that group: Dylan Raiola. Connor and Mitch are here to analyze the important developments from Monday and Tuesday. We’re also talking about the Pinstripe Bowl TV show that featured Rhule and Bill O’Brien and delivered several amusing moments – at least for the hosts of this show. And we take a deeper look at the positions of need for the Huskers as they dig into the portal in search of players. What’s more pressing, the offensive or defensive line? Who might return for a sixth season – or a seventh?

A big, newsy Tuesday brought change and the prospect of more change to Matt Rhule’s Nebraska football coaching staff. The Huskers have elevated John Butler from interim defensive coordinator and secondary coach to full-time DC. They’re also working to finalize deals with Phil Snow to become Rhule’s associate head coach and with Terry Bradden to coach the defensive line.So much has happened in the past 10 days around the Huskers. Connor and Mitch are here on this Tuesday to break down the latest. Why does the timing matter? What role can we expect from the 68-year-old Snow, who coordinated Rhule defenses at Temple and Baylor and with the Carolina Panthers? And what are the Huskers getting in Bradden, a 30-something who’s been with the Kansas City Chiefs for the past eight years?Join us for a reaction pod.For your next listen, check out the Locked On College Football podcast!

We're back after a busy weekend. The transfer portal is officially open on this Monday. Drama continued to churn over the weekend as running back Emmett Johnson said he'll return to Nebraska after flirting with the portal. Connor and Mitch are here with reaction to Johnson's important decision, a look at the roster numbers that the Huskers must crunch and a preview of what to expect this week. Also, the Huskers are headed to Yankee Stadium after Christmas for the Pinstripe Bowl, their return after a seven-year drought to the college football postseason, to face Boston College. For Nebraska fans who plan to make the trip to New York: Beware of the price tag. And finally, former Nebraska coach Scott Frost is back on our radar. He was introduced on Sunday as the coach at UCF -- where, of course, Frost worked in 2016 and 2017 before his five-plus seasons at Nebraska. He looked and sounded comfortable back in Orlando.

Matt Rhule took to the stage on Wednesday to address the Nebraska football public, the locker room, the recruits, perhaps even to deliver a reassuring message to himself that all is well and on track in the new normal of college football. It's been a stressful week around the Huskers as coaches leave and players leave. Nebraska made up some ground by signing 20 recruits on Wednesday. It was a good class, filled with prospects who had attractive options elsewhere. Rhule says he's got things under control. But he warned that there's more "scary attrition" to come.Connor and Mitch are here to offer analysis on Rhule's plan for the portal, the coaching staff, the defensive philosophy, defensive coordinator hire and the quarterback position.

On Tuesday, freshman quarterback Daniel Kaelin announced his intention to leave the Huskers. So did defenders Princewill Umanmielen and James Williams.Connor and Mitch break down the departures, starting with Kaelin. What does this mean for the immediate future of the Nebraska QB group? And what does next year hold for Heinrich Haarberg, with Kaelin out of the mix? The Huskers could have to go to the portal for a QB. We also get into signing day storylines – including the trio of players that Nebraska signed from the Kansas City area. Finally, what’s happening with the makeup of Matt Rhule’s coaching staff? It’s all in this episode. Join us. For your next listen, check out the Locked On College Football podcast!

It happened again. No need to check your calendars. It is, in fact, 2024, and Iowa beat Nebraska 13-10 on a field goal as time expired after a late turnover. Nebraska has to get better in these moments, according to Matt Rhule. But what else do the Huskers need?Do they need a better way to summon motivation against the Hawkeyes? Maybe it's not enough to try to match the perceived disrespect with gestures of their own, as Nebraska captains did in refusing to shake the hands of Iowa players during the pregame coin toss. The moment generated plenty of conversation in the wake of Friday. Connor and Mitch weigh in.Also, we've got a review of the college football weekend as championship Saturday and the bowl selections loom. Where are the Huskers headed this month? Finally, expect Nebraska staff involvement in a coaching-carousel season that's about to take off. For your next listen, check out the Locked On College Football podcast!
