Nebraska has two key offensive linemen back from offseason injuries and a pair of high-ceiling tight ends now healthy as well with team workouts about to begin. #Huskers #GBR From @EvanBlandOWH: omaha.com/sports/huskers…
Nebraska has a new running back, at least in designation. And he used to be a national recruit as a receiver. That’s freshman Isaiah Mozee. #Huskers #GBR From @EvanBlandOWH: omaha.com/sports/huskers…
“I can’t talk about his time,” Nebraska coach Matt Rhule said of Scott Frost's comments. “But what I can say was this wasn’t a good job. But we’ve made it a good job. And we’re about to make it a great job." #Huskers #GBR From @EvanBlandOWH: omaha.com/sports/huskers…
Matt Rhule used the Big Ten media days stage in Las Vegas to share his belief in Nebraska’s 2025 team — and in quarterback Dylan Raiola. #Huskers #GBR omaha.com/sports/huskers…
Illinois coach Bret Bielema detailing live on BTN how college football has evolved since he was a lineman at Iowa in the early 1990s. "Holy shit, the world has changed, right?"
Big Ten commissioner Tony Petitti on why media days moved from Indianapolis to Las Vegas this summer: "This was a logistics thing." Not necessarily a nod to the new West Coast schools. Stadium in Indy wasn't available.
First big MLB game for the former #Huskers slugger.
"Brice Matthews is putting on a show in the desert!" MLB's No. 94 prospect (@Astros) goes deep for the second time tonight -- this time 423 feet at 108.7 mph.
Five storylines to watch at Big Ten media days, including the unofficial national debut of Nebraska's Dylan Raiola: omaha.com/sports/huskers…
Three clear College Football Playoff qualifiers will emerge from the Big Ten and Nebraska will finish in the league's top half if the preseason media poll released Monday becomes reality. #Huskers #GBR From @EvanBlandOWH: omaha.com/sports/huskers…
Dylan Raiola, better than a Tier 4 talent, has plenty of fuel and motivation as he and Nebraska head to Las Vegas for Big Ten media days. #Huskers #GBR From @swmckewonOWH: omaha.com/sports/huskers…
Per multiple reports from Saturday, Nebraska RHP Mason McConnaughey has signed with the Texas Rangers for a bonus of $495,825. It's below the slot value of the 115th pick ($661,100), with the elbow injury a central reason why.
