Nebraska football: Troy Dannen, Matt Rhule and threading the needle on big money
from Locked On Nebraska - Daily Podcast on the Nebraska Cornhuskers · host Locked On Podcast Network
According to Nebraska athletic director Troy Dannen, people “don’t realize what NIL is today.” Is that right? And if so, how can the Huskers expect to fund a roster with a payroll that exceeds the rev-share cap by millions of dollars? Dannen has answers to these questions. But is he walking a fine line in admitting that donors don’t care for NIL and that Nebraska can’t legally take checks from its boosters in order to pay for Matt Rhule’s team. Nebraska baseball won another game Tuesday in dramatic fashion. Jeter Worthley had a huge night. The bullpen got its act back together. And the weekend pitching order is set to shift as the Huskers head to Ohio State. Also, we’ve got more trough talk. And what is this, a Bucc-ee’s scoreboard? Genius. Nebraska is set to make an impact soon. Join us. Everydayer Club If you never miss an episode, it’s time to make it official.
