Show notes

Ed Foley spoke to media yesterday and gave an update on special teams…where do things stand with Tristan Alvano’s health? Aug 21, 2024

Show notes

-Foley said Alvano is up to about 90 percent and should make it for the opener against UTEP, but also mentioned that John Hohl is kicking at a good clip right now

-Anything else learned from special teams yesterday? Update on returners at all?

- Also, Colorado’s only person dedicated to coaching special teams---a quality control analyst---resigns from the team just 9 days away from their first game. Not great!

Sean Callahan (Husker Online) Aug 21, 2024

Show notes

-The Huskers announced the single digit numbers yesterday. Any names that stood out?

-Matt Rhule hasn’t named Dylan Raiola the starting QB yet…is there a chance it’s Heinrich Haarberg against UTEP?

-Ed Foley says Tristan Alvano is 90 percent healthy with 10 days left until kickoff…level of concern?

Oklahoma State is (kind of) stealing Bill’s genius idea for NIL…is it time for Nebraska to seriously consider what Bill brought up months ago? Aug 21, 2024

Show notes

-Yesterday, Oklahoma State announced they’ll have QR codes on the back of their helmets as a way to help fans directly donate to NIL funds for the Cowboys

-Now---let’s flash back months ago (or was it last year?) when Bill had the idea of putting players’ names up on the big screen after a big play and letting fans directly fund NIL that way during the game

-We thought it was funny then but also kind of serious…why shouldn’t that actually happen right now?

Show notes

-The Buckeyes are projected to have 4 this year alone, as well as many in the past---it’s a different world
