The 1890 Initiative is now 1890 Nebraska, because it’s now the official NIL collective for University of Nebraska Jul 09, 2024

Show notes

-Former AD Trev Alberts was complimentary of 1890 in front of media, but never seemed inclined to partner with them solely in the NIL front. Well, now it’s the official NIL operation for the school

-How much does this change things if anything from how it was operating before? Less confusion?

How much does staff turnover affect recruiting for Nebraska and it’s current players? Jul 09, 2024

Show notes

-With the resignation of Evan Cooper on Friday, Nebraska has now lost 10 staff members in the last 12 months and has cleared over $1 million out in salaries in doing so

-Some of those staff members no longer here were important in recruiting several players that still exist on the roster…how does that picture look going forward?

-Is this common after the first year of a staff in most places or not?

Show notes

Is it possible that Tony White’s potential future replacement was just hired at Nebraska? Jul 08, 2024

Show notes

-Husker fans were concerned that White might get a head coaching job this offseason—San Diego State was interested but went elsewhere—and White stuck around with a nice pay raise

-John Butler comes to Nebraska with experience at Penn State, Minnesota, the Houston Texans and Buffalo Bills…and his goal has been to be a coordinator at an NFL or college level

-If Butler’s first year goes well and White has more calls for a head coaching job, doesn’t that make fans breathe easier?

Evan Cooper is OUT as Nebraska’s secondary coach, and John Butler is IN; a wild 24 hours leaves the dust settled Jul 08, 2024

Show notes

-The Friday 5pm news dump included Pete Thamel reporting that Nebraska’s secondary/defensive pass coordinator Evan Cooper was resigning from his position and leaving the team

-This led to people texting Sip, Jake and Bill that maybe Bill would get the call---but they have gone with longtime NFL assistant coach John Butler instead, who has had successful years recently with the Buffalo Bills

-It’s 2 straight years now where Matt Rhule’s staff has had a change in July—last year, Bob Wager was let go late in July as tight ends coach, and now a change in secondary coaches this year
