HuskerOnline recaps highs & lows of '24 season after bowl victory, staff chatter, portal news & more

[@KirkKreifels]

Such a pleasure meeting you guys at the brazen tavern! GBR

[@HuskerOnline]

Thank you! That was a lot of fun!

[@BrianJohnsonbrowie]

Sat next to Sean and his family at the Southern game. Great people.

[@v.roydizzle3576]

Best show hands down fellas. 💯 Sip

[@nnonotnow]

Appreciate you guys suffering for the cause on these road trips. Good to know you're doing okay. 😉

[@davidsoriente6845]

Rahmir Johnson will be a future coach under the Coach Ruhle tree

[@chadpaulsen2953]

as he should be. i regard him as high as any RB that's been through here. his injuries really held him back. but his loyalty in this day and age was special. once a husker, always a husker and i would bet he's welcome at any dinner table in the state.

[@taylormartin4346]

The worst part of the Nebraska football season being over is no more post-game reactions from the fellas.

[@mattogrady217]

Hugh Jass thanks you for the shoutout.

[@growbigred4263]

Hey get off my lawn!, easy there! 😆 🤣 love Sip!

[@spencersmith4373]

The Iowa rivalry has been nasty for like 6 years now, idk why the media has been so hesitant to embrace it. There is not a team in the country I hate more than the Hawkeyes.

[@michaeldalton8374]

Because a true rivalry has BOTH teams winning. Since Bo, that has been a one-sided affair.

[@spencersmith4373]

@michaeldalton8374 the only ingredient necessary for a rivalry is hate, and believe me I know a ton of Iowa fans and the hate is mutual.

[@RyanHaase-n5j]

Other than the week Nebraska plays Iowa in football, or the two games Nebraska plays them in basketball, a lot of us don’t care about Iowa. Now Iowa fans do seem to care about Nebraska. By all means, treat Iowa like a hated rival. For me, I don’t care about them.

[@isaacrinne6498]

There are older Nebraska fans who act like it isn’t a rivalry. Many of them are shocked at how long we’ve actually been in the big ten for😂

[@DionPryor396]

​@RyanHaase-n5j True I don't even think about them when not playing them but whoa they think about us year round..😂 Weirdo's

[@alaviuda2]

Happy New Year! GBR!🎉

[@tk4083]

It's not just the snapping that's the issue. Returns are non-existent

[@NOCOHusker]

The lack of return yardage isn't necessarily all coaching. Not as much as the snapping issues at least.

[@MrBlpete]

I'll tell you what, Lavonte Shavers, I mean Vincent Shavers Jr is going to be the real deal

[@chadpaulsen2953]

don't forget mickey joseph as a recruiter. had personal problems, but, he can coach and he could recruit.

[@mikesmith-nj1ij]

So glad to get these Florida boys in here and now that we have the coach back in the fold even better. But just as you said with Vince Marrow... If the coach leaves, will the kids leave? It's amazing they stuck around even though lead recruiter left... Granted he was an analyst.... So we're sitting a little better than we have been in the past... I guess it means we make sure these guys never leave for a better job when Alabama, Georgia and Ole Miss come calling

[@brandonwynn8757]

You guys can just do a show everyday if you want. They don’t even need to be about the Huskers

[@sethcanas9604]

Special teams had bigger problems then just long snapper the coverage and blocking was a joke all year change needs to be made

[@mikesmith-nj1ij]

Seriously, what are you trying to fix? We probably had the worst special teams in division one. So our solution is to go get better players??? Our boss is the worst boss in America... But don't worry, we got better employees for him so our company will surely be much improved next year. That's how ridiculous it will be if we keep Matt rule around

We want it guys! 😅

[@GermanBelgianwaffle]

Chicago's new stadium would be great

[@Bc-sv7ge]

Foleys contract is up at midnight tonighy

[@TheNmoulds]

If you accidently go to Cincinnati for the game to start the season here are the top three places you should go: Jeff Ruby's Tony's steakhouse El Toro (they have a cincy location)

[@bradbourret]

Graeters Ice Creme

[@nnonotnow]

You do know the game with Cincinnati's is being played in Arrowhead stadium in Kansas City, right?

[@NYCHusker]

Peter Lugers compared to Mastros is tough look. Nowhere close. However, great show and great place. Johnny Carson (Nebraska) calls Lugers the best steak he's ever had. He has a photo right as you walk out the front door. Hopefully you saw!

[@GermanBelgianwaffle]

The return simply is not there for paying $ for a running back. I'd never take a running back out of the portal. Recruits only

[@defface777]

Good idea not taking the subway... GBR!!!

[@drn13355]

Not a Nebraska fan, but congrats on winning.

[@scottkelly7051]

Sip, if I hadn't quit drinking years ago, I'd grab a fifth of Johnny Walker Black, some good cigars, drive to Lincoln, and look you up. We'd get drunk while you told me Husker football stories. It would be legendary. Unfortunately, the last time I drank, I wound up in Blackwell, Oklahoma dead broke.

[@nnonotnow]

Which is worse? Being dead broke or being in Blackwell Oklahoma?

[@JamesLybarger]

Indiana game we were wearing all White Uniforms! Our all time record in white uniforms since 1970 is 7-14! Do not wear white uniforms anymore!

[@jasonpatterson2143]

Shawn just will not admit that Foley is a problem. They must be related.

[@genebaker4466]

Sean

[@JamesLybarger]

Build a indoor stadium in Omaha for Big Ten Championship Game. Who payed for the Peter Luger steaks?

[@theabyss3386]

Super chats

[@shogunjobu]

great show.. could of won some of those games not should of

[@michaeldalton8374]

Noise gate set too high

[@RyanHaase-n5j]

Why does everyone ignore Mac Markway in the tight end room? I assume they ignored Fidone because they know he’s leaving.

[@HuskerOnline]

We need to see him return healthy and know his timeline. He’s now suffered I believe three major knee injuries since HS.

[@RyanHaase-n5j]

@ We definitely need to see what his health is, but he was a true freshman who played 12 games for LSU. He would immediately be our best blocking tight end, if healthy. Everyone ignores his existence, from you down to the casual fan. Tight end room is deep.

[@bigcheese467]

One Hundred

[@mikesmith-nj1ij]

one troubling ass fact is how much the BC game look like every other game he played this year ... Almost every plot twist .. special teams! Turnovers... Great on first and second down but can't get the stop on 3rd and long ...mistakes.... missed turnover opportunities . Missed turnover opportunities ...nearly giving the game away Obviously there was a limited time in Bowl practices but it was a a decent amount of time to try some new things. But the results were essentially the same.

[@mikesmith-nj1ij]

Really excited about special teams next year. Matt rule went to get the best players on the market in order to overcome Ed Foley's bad coaching. Hopefully none of the players listen to what he has to say next year if he's still on the staff. It might sound cruel but how do you listen or respect a coach that did the worst job and division one special teams.... Perhaps ever. I know there was no improvement over the entire year.... But we're getting better players so hopefully that will overcome some of our coaches ineptness. Like there was no improvement... I can't even wrap my head around that.... Zero improvement and the mad just kept showing up to work everyday.

[@mikesmith-nj1ij]

Near heresy to Husker fans. But you make some good points on Barney. He has had a lot of touches but what is he done with the ball? I don't love his constant jet sweeps and wide receivers screens... So part of it is play design. But if you want to see a dynamic receiver, Luke, go look at Luther Burden highlights from his freshman and sophomore year... now that's a game changer. Yes, I know there are not a lot of Luther Burdens... But that's a dynamic WR and that's what we need. I don't actually see a lot of that from Barney. Is he overhyped?

[@joeybetzold7601]

3-9 in 2025. We got very lucky. This team is hot garbage
