How confident would Nebraska fans be if Jalyn Gramstad truly is the No. 2 QB for the upcoming season? Apr 01, 2025

Show notes

-In a perfect world, you don’t have to worry about the backup QB with the starter staying healthy—but that type of season rarely exists in any level of football, even though Dylan Raiola stayed healthy last year

-Gramstad is referred to as “Granddad” by the team, and although he has a lot of experience playing quality football—it all came at an NAIA level in Iowa. We all know the competition level is a lot different than where he came from…

Show notes

-Troy Taylor was fired last week by Stanford, putting the Cardinal in an odd position with Spring ball getting going. Yesterday, Stanford GM Andrew Luck announced Frank Reich would coach Stanford this year, with the intention of it being only one year as they start their search for a new replacement at the end of the year

-This will be the longest coaching search ever potentially if it’s known that Reich is for sure only going to be there one year…

Today is April Fool’s Day, but it’s no joke that Nebrasketball played postseason basketball last night…did they advance in The Crown? Apr 01, 2025

Show notes

-Nebraska played in the 3^rd of 4 games last night against a 13-19 Arizona State team that was shorthanded with injuries and transfer portal issues…did the basketball look acceptable or not?
