Ethan Piper was a star at Big Ten Media Days for his candid and thorough insight into the Huskers.
There was a lot to dissect from his 25 minutes at the mic, and in the story below I break down three of the biggest takeaways – including this banger of a quote:
“The nice thing is the coaches don’t go out on the field to play every Saturday, it’s the players. So we dictate how our season looks. So, yeah, I understand it’s a new staff, new system change. But, to me, it’s not an excuse for us not to win games. Having a mindset of ‘we’re just rebuilding, it’s OK to lose games,’ that should never be our mindset when you’re playing football.”
