Here you go an article from ESPN and Rhule explain why.

"The word 'tampering' doesn't exist anymore," Rhule said Saturday at his midwinter news conference. "It's just an absolute free open common market. I don't necessarily want to open up to the outside world and have people watch our guys and say, 'He looks like a pretty good player. Let's go get him.'"

Spring game is just as unnecessary as seeing this picture

Please no more Iowa pics. Enough for one day

Cancelling the Spring Game would result in lost revenue for the AD, so I doubt this actually happens.

Regardless, it’s turning down millions in revenue. Especially since it won’t be televised.

Why don't we have a regional preseason scrimmage in August against another program.

They could televise those things.

I love this idea. The NFL plays preseason games. Why not?

Annual home-and-home preseason game against Missouri or Oklahoma? Yes please.

I know I’ll catch hell for this but I feel sorry for Matt. I can’t imagine being a HC at a major program and being this insecure. His press conference was cringe.

Not wanting other coaches to see your players because you’re afraid of coaches vetting them, really? That’s like not allow your girlfriend or wife to go out with her friends because you’re affraid of guys trying to talk to her. Grow a pair man. Jeez. It’s embarrassing

Rhule’s sentiments are that of nearly every college coach in the country. No one has an interest in advertising their players for the spring portal. And the Wisconsin kid bagging out after signing a deal with the Badgers means all bets are off.

We’ll see

My guess is we’ll be one of very few major schools to tuck tail and cower from tradition re: televised spring games

This is reminiscent of declining a bowl game. What a coward's way out. Awful look for Nebraska's head coach and program.

Can't make excuses for Coach Rhule or the AD here.
