they also open up scholarships and now the new rule is no limit to the number of new scholarships granted in any one year as long as the total is 85 or less. So the more transfers out, the more transfers in there can be from the portal.

Spoke with recent re-offered four-star defensive lineman Kyran Bourda today. He's got some real nice things to say about defensive line coach Terrance Knighton and he's wanting to take an official visit to Nebraska ASAP. Hit the link...

The start may have been shaky, but Nebraska found its groove and destroyed Delaware State to move on to the Round of 32 against Kansas Friday night. Plus, Cook gave an update on senior setter Nicklin Hames.

After today, it's never been more clear, this is Matt Rhule's team. Without question. There is no second guessing anything now.

I can't wait to see what he can do. The expectations could not be higher but he seems like he's up to the challenge. Put your head down and get to work, is the Nebraska way and what is expected of our Head Coach. Let's get this right!!!!

Recruit, recruit, recruit, recruit till you can't recruit no more.

From the independence bowl when he was interim at temple after Geoff Collins left to go to GT

All Husker stuff removed from twitter, if old news apologize.. he retweeted this

This guy just can't stay out of trouble.

Under 30 minutes until we see No. 2 Nebraska face Delaware State in the opening round of the NCAA Tournament here at the Devaney Center.

Huskers getting depleted. on the injury front. Nicklin Hames is out tonight as well as Kenzie Knuckles. The big surprise is Whitney Lauenstein who won't play tonight. According to John Baylor on HRN, Lauenstein has been sick all week and Wednesday was her first day back.

If any of you played college sports, I’m guessing you felt a deep connection to a coach. Head coach, position coach, doesn’t matter. I know I did.

We knew this would be a rebuild, and we should have known not retaining Busch and Mickey would make it more painful - and that’s where we are. I imagine Housman has deep respect and love for Busch - he was the coach who helped the lightbulb go on. And Crawford and Coleman were obviously smitten with Mickey.

Maybe this is for the best … who knows? The Housman news is jarring for sure. But maybe a complete tear-down will be best LONG-TERM. Or maybe not. Maybe talent-wise we are/we’re closer than we thought to turning the corner. We’ll never know, but we should trust Rhule to figure it out.

Hopefully short-term pain, long-term gain.

@Greg Smith Do you think Tyler Kavan the Wahoo class of 2013 Running Back would have ever gotten any run at Nebraska? Set a ton of records at Morningside.

News out of Columbia: South Carolina QB Spencer Rattler will be entering the Transfer Portal. Rattler is believed to be headed to Nebraska with former OC Marcus Satterfield who just joined Matt Ruhle’s staff.

Texas A&M DL coach Elijah Robinson will not be joining Matt Rhule's coaching staff. Sources tell Inside Nebraska that Robinson was offered a position on the Huskers' staff, but he turned down the offer. It is unclear whether or not Robinson was offered a defensive coordinator or co-defensive coordinator position in addition to a role as DL coach. But the bottom line is that he will not be joining the Nebraska staff, and he is expected to remain at Texas A&M, where he is also assistant head coach and running game coordinator.

Terrance Knighton officially joined the Huskers' staff this week. We can confirm that Knighton will be the head DL coach.

Brant Banks has entered the transfer portal. Could be a big loss for Fred Hoiberg come Big 10 tournament time.

Matt Rhule joined the Jim Rome Show to talk Mickey Joseph, Rhule's football program, his time at Carolina and more:

Rhule had to deal with the craziness at Baylor. I am sure he can deal with the MJ situation and be there for the players who no doubt look up to him.

This kid is a real talent. I feel sorry for him and hope he fully recovers quickly...

I’m expecting easily the largest Player Turnover that we’ve ever seen year to year.

Rather a player just finished their first year or their last year of eligibility, their time in Lincoln has been filled with Turmoil, Negativity, Losing and Public Ridicule directed towards them as a person and as a player.

They have been through uninspired Leadership, Coaching Changes, Mickey’s positive influence, Mickey’s current situation, new Coaching Staff coming in, and their Coaches are not retained, and with them on the outside looking in.

The AD announcing that the Team is bad and we will begin with a total new buildout. From the bottom up. The new Coach explaining it will take several years to get this turned around.

At a certain point Enough is Enough. And it becomes time for a change. If you have ever quit a job it’s easier to understand.

Think if your Employer had gone through the changes that the team has. If the Company, your fellow Employees, and the Company’s customers publicly attacked you professionally and personally on a daily basis.

Although in a work environment,
at a certain point it’s against the law.

For a player, transferring to a more positive culture becomes an attractive alternative.

The transfers from Nebraska to Kansas State this last year provide an immediate example of the benefits.

Coach Rhule will need a lot of players at all levels, and I know he’ll be re-recruiting ours.

It’s going to be quite the ride.

It's just around the corner. I'm hoping it adds to the excitement of crowning a national championship team...

The interview was from yesterday, but before the news about Mickey Joseph's arrest came out. Interesting comments about assistant coaches, including Phil Snow near the end.

Look at what he did with Rattler this year at SC. Will be easy to sell that success to a big time transfer portal QB

This is a huge get for Nebraska…

Really great interview everything you want to hear. Wants his teams to be more like Temple than Baylor. Lots of good-on-good in practice.
