UNL is the top Lincoln Douglas debate team in the nation! The team takes home the national championship in NFA LD for the second year in a row! 🌽❤️

The team earns 🥇first place as a team as well as the national champion debater, Nick Wallenburg.

Wait, UNL is still debating slavery? 

They know that both Lincoln and Douglas both died over 150 years ago, and that the 13th Amendment abolished slavery, right? 

I mean, I don't know how long it takes news to make it across the Great Plains... But that's a little ridiculous.

Matt Rhule and Nebraska are very serious about the revival of the fullback

Matt Rhule is a longtime outspoken fan of the unsung position.

He's so much of a fan of the fullback that loyal followers of the Huskers have likely heard both Rhule and his staff talk about them during media availabilities.


...and it doesn't stop there. He's got a creative plan to find Nebraska's next fullbacks.

Following a comment from Max Olson on not being sure where to find a fullback nowadays during a Q&A with The Athletic, Rhule laid out Nebraska's plan for finding the near-extinct position with a specialty camp in mid-June.

"So we're doing a fullback camp this summer. We're doing a one-day fullback camp. My thought process was there's probably guys out there that play tight end. There's probably guys out there that are big tailbacks. There's probably guys in the wing-T that are fullbacks in other places across the country. Linebackers. They can come here for one day and just focus on one position: Play fullback."

"You watch the 49ers and the versatility of (Kyle) Juszczyk. When you have a good one, they can add so much to your offense. People don't see it very often. So we'd love to find one. We had a great one, Nick Sharga, at Temple who used to just demolish people. I'd love to find that type of kid here at Nebraska."

New Huskers running backs coach EJ Barthel, who has spent the past three seasons as a member of Rhule's staff, is a former fullback at UMass and shared during his first media availability in Lincoln that he's excited to get his hands on one as well.

Frank Solich is back in Lincoln this week for Nebraska’s annual spring game. The former player and head coach of the Huskers will be honored by the program on Saturday, Nebraska AD Trev Alberts announced in March.

Friday evening, Nebraska unveiled one portion of the tribute to Solich. On the field inside Memorial Stadium, the 45-yard lines have all been painted and outlined in red.

Solich played fullback for the Huskers and wore No. 45 in the 1960s before eventually returning to the coaching staff:

I like how ChatGPT references "other online forums." I fondly remember the fallout lasting well into Nebraska's offseason over on the Huskers rivals.com fansite.

I also like how it got about 50% of the information correct

probably from other online forums

No context ChatGPT Vs Bo Pelini:



Pelini's Playhouse?

damn, I thought he would be the starter this fall

Really like the kid.

Apparently, Jeff Sims the transfer from Georgia Tech is the coach's choice.

If Sims is better than Thompson he is VERY good
