Corey Campbell is

He showed up with the Rhule regime in time to tweak the configuration and content of the Osborne Legacy Complex weight room to his liking. Combine that with the large role he seems to enjoy (leading the team out to Tunnel Walk, speaking to the team before practice, etc.) and he seems to have a really sweet setup IMHO. Unless something went really wrong with relationships or another team backed in a Brinks truck, I think he is here for awhile.
 
I think Campbell has been ok. Still looking for the speed combined with the size. Also looking for us to be the stronger team in the 4th.,
Look at our lack of injuries.

And we have been fine in the fourth. The issues haven’t been getting physically beat down.

Finally look at our players themselves. Look at Ty and Nash. Look at our linemen. Significantly different than under the previous regime

Rhule's teams are historically prone to 2nd half collapse.

However, I don't know if it's because of S&C. I fear it's because his oratory skills are weak outside of pregame. Look no further than the soft speech he gave at halftime for the Colorado game. Team came out flat and never really covered the rest of the season.

Agree, but also seemed to be some of the S&C mixed in. Illinois was the first major example. They just pushed us around and our dudes looked tired. That used to be Nebraska's calling card. There were other examples as well, but agree with the other piece as well that plays in.

I thought there was a big difference in the physical look of the Huskers from the game I saw them play in Boulder under Frost and then this year in Lincoln. Under Frost I thought the Huskers paled in comparison to the Buffs. I was then at the game in September 2023 in Boulder, but I did not notice the change as much as when I saw them again this September.
