Football Marik: White, Dvoracek have strong pitches if they seek portal LBs

Inside linebacker is a position that could use some portal help.

If Nebraska does seek help from the portal, I think Tony White and Rob Dvoracek have strong pitches to use.

Football Three intriguing non-QB transfer portal options for Nebraska offense

Lot of intriguing options out there for Nebraska to pursue on offense. Here's a bit more on three of them: One that's obvious, one that makes a lot of sense and one that's wishful thinking but included him because this article is for the dreamers (including myself):

Volleyball Huskers advance to Elite Eight as they follow on eerily similar path as 2005 national title runner-up team

Sweep. Rinse. Repeat.

No. 1 seed Huskers (31-1) moved past No. 5 seed Georgia Tech (24-7) with their third straight sweep in this year's NCAA Tournament. Don't look now (OK, please look now), but they are on an eerily similar path as the 2005 national runner-up team right now.

New NCAA proposal (real, not a joke like all the playoff proposals)

  • The formation of a new subdivision made up of institutions with the highest resources that can directly compensate athletes through an “enhanced educational trust fund,” which requires the schools that opt into it an investment of at least $30,000 per year per athlete for at least half of the school’s eligible athletes. Schools would have to adhere to Title IX, providing equal monetary opportunities to both female and male athletes.
  • Schools in the new subdivision could create their own rules separate from the rest of D-I, and those rules would allow them the ability to address policies such as scholarship limits and roster size as well as transfers and NIL.
  • Any Division I school would be able to enter into an NIL deal with its athletes directly, which is not currently permissible.
  • Any Division I school would be able to distribute to any athlete funding related to educational benefits without any caps on such compensation.

Recruiting Nebraska busy making high school offers as portal gets jumping

It could be something, could be nothing but Nebraska has made more high school offers this week than reported portal offers. Might give us a glimpse into Matt Rhule's vision of team building.
