The need for money in college sports has created weird things---like the head coach position being sponsorable, as seen at Arizona State/ Shut Up Sipple (sponsored by Bagels & Joe) May 04, 2026

Show notes

-Arizona State received its largest athletics donation in school history which also will ‘endow the head coaching position’ in football

-Former PepsiCo executive and eBay CEO, Brian Swette---along with his wife, Kelly, are donating $10 million to ASU—their alma

mater—which will go to ‘recruitment and retention’ of student-athletes, while also being part of the head coach title. Kenny Dillingham

is now known as the ‘Swette Family Endowed Football Coach’ at the university….for real.

Maybe we should have cooled the jets on the hosting of a NCAA Baseball regional last week---it was a big step back for Nebraska at Ohio State May 04, 2026

Show notes

-Nebraska entered the weekend squarely at the No. 2 spot in the B1G behind (seemingly unbeatable) UCLA….yet a sweep at the hands

of the Buckeyes in Columbus is leading to questions as we reach the most important time of the year

-The bats were cold all weekend, as the Buckeyes kept the Huskers at bay all 3 games and had great success on offense…..just a bad

weekend or something to be concerned about? Also, KENTUCKY DERBY RESULTS

Jason Peter and Grant Wistrom: Part 3 May 01, 2026

Show notes

-The Dylan Raiola era wasn’t a complete bust, but it didn’t live up to the expectations that you might expect from getting a 5-star

QB…what went wrong and do you believe in Anthony Colandrea to be a solid starting QB?

-Memorial Stadium is going to put the iconic troughs up for auction prior to remodeling of South Stadium…can you imagine going to

someone’s house and seeing one there?

Jason Peter and Grant Wistrom: Part 1 May 01, 2026

Show notes

-Does UNL administration take its fans for granted? The sellout streak is bragged about but the results haven’t followed…and Husker

baseball is having a great year but it’s season ticket holders aren’t getting rewarded with rights for a possible regional…

-We were informed by Jason last week that Grant may have had an issue waking up on time for practice with the Rams…was Dick

Vermeil really knocking on the door to wake him up and how often?

Former Huskers/NFL 1 st round picks Jason Peter and Grant Wistrom: Part 2 May 01, 2026

Show notes

-Double Nickel is BACK in studio with Grant Wistrom…lots to get to…they came from an era with many players getting drafted

(including both being first round picks)…how do you react to just one Husker drafted, and in the 5 th round (Emmett Johnson, Chiefs)?

-How would 1997 Nebraska look like in the NIL era? Would it have caused any divide in the locker room among athletes with different

paygrades and is that a problem at all now possibly at different programs?
