Five Players in the Transfer Portal Matt Rhule Should Target


Taking a look at five players that could provide a roster boost for Nebraska to begin the Matt Rhule era. Of course, this list will look a lot different after December 5th.

question for the Inside Nebraska staff who attended the presser

how in the world was i able to hear not only Coach Rhule's answers to the questions he was asked, but also the questions themselves??

what magic was at play in that format? it must have been a remarkable and likely confusing display of next generation technology. am i right?

ya see my point now, right?

please lobby for the University to have mics for those asking questions during post-game pressers as was accommodated during the intro presser.
it's so much better that way.

(and no, i'll never let this issue die till it's done the right way.)

The average fan

On here most of us obsess over the program. We often know the depth chart back and forward. We know how a player's recruitment went. We know where he's from. We obsess over every detail.


However, the average fan does not. There's a Facebook group (I believe it was started by Severe) that has over 75k members on it. Do you know what every freaking post is right now?

"How can they hire Matt Rhule over Mickey??? I'm so pissed off right now".

LMAO. Yes. A guy who has coached 9 games (and made a horrible team slightly less horrible) over a guy who has taken two programs in desolation and revived them into national competitors at places that don't have 1/2 the resources NU has.

THAT is the average fan. That is the "but he played here and we won our last game against a mediocre team" is all they can see. They don't understand the concept of a national coaching search. They don't understand that we desperately need the best, not just a guy we like.

Mickey has shown repeatedly he's just not ready to a more knowledgeable fan. He's great in the locker room and he definitely has the right attitude. But man some of his decisions have been complete head scratchers. Yesterday's game should never have been that close.

We beat one average team (who happens to have maybe the worst offense in P5 history). Woo.

Palmer is gone, but assuming the rest of those who can return do, and no portal kids crack the top line, who starts?
