Speaker 1 (00:00):
The sports Brief, the Husker buzz Edion with Sean Callahan
live and like an Rosie well Shano, it's transferred portal
day and one name not in the portal is Emmitt Johnson,
and the starting Husker running back has pulled him himself
back into Lincoln.
Speaker 2 (00:15):
Yeah, it was quite a development last night. My understanding is,
you know, they were on the phone with Dana Holgerson
and obviously Matt Ruhl, Nebraska coaches, and had a change
of heart. I mean, I think it was an emotional
year for Emma Johnson just with the way it started,
kind of not maybe getting the opportunities he wanted, and
then obviously the way it finished, and he just didn't
(00:36):
have a really good feel of where he was at.
And you know, I think Dana Olgerson just said, look,
look what you did with me. Let's let's let's run
this thing back another year. And they were all sold.
So yeah, a big boost for Nebraska now as they
head into bull practice this week and get ready for
a game against Boston College, who, by the way, is
a very you know you delve into them, this is
(00:57):
gonna be a tough game for Nebraska heading out to
the pinstripe balling to yrs.
Speaker 3 (01:02):
Now, did they have a third person on the phone
call from the eighteen ninety nil collective?
Speaker 2 (01:07):
Well that's a given.
Speaker 3 (01:08):
Now, yeah, there's a real good chance that damn it
went online checked his nil account and noticed that it
was significantly larger than it was before he declared for
the entrance.
Speaker 2 (01:17):
Well we don't really know though. Is like, the first
seven months of these agreements are obviously going to be
tied into eighteen ninety, but starting in July, once the
house settlement case goes through, the the schools will have
a takeover a lot of this stuff. So the next
twelve months will be kind of a transition, assuming that
the house case all goes through, and then the university
(01:38):
yes to basically start taking over some of these deals
that are in place.
Speaker 3 (01:42):
I'm sure they're budgeting some of that twenty three million
right now with incoming recruits and existing place.
Speaker 1 (01:47):
What if it doesn't go through, Well that's a good question.
Speaker 3 (01:50):
Go ahead, shut them.
Speaker 2 (01:51):
And that's why they have the relationship with eighteen ninety.
I mean you can they are partners. The university emblem
badge is on their official social media accounts as that
they are a verified, so they operate as an arm.
The Development Department operates as an arm of eighteen ninety.
They fundraise for eighteen ninety, so they're one of the same.
(02:12):
And that is where Troy Dan and really I think
saw the big picture to get that going. Where you
can make donations to eighteen ninety and get the priority
points or choose to get the tax right off if
you donate to the nonprofit arm of it.
Speaker 3 (02:25):
Yeah, which is the foundation. That's the endowment. It's not
directly to the players. That's too through a university deal.
Any cash to directly the players is not deductible as
of right now. Now as the Pinstripe Bowl unfolds on
the twenty eighth of December. You mentioned Boston College. A
lot of Nebraskans don't know a lot about ACC teams.
I'm impressed by them because I love their head coach
(02:47):
number one, But I really like this defensive player, Donovan Iszeruka.
This guy is maybe as good as we're going to
see all year.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
Azaruga leads the nation in sacks with sixteen and a half.
Now the question is will he played in this game.
He's projected as a Day one, maybe even a day
two draft pick. But if you're playing a guy from
a powerful conference that leads the nation sacks. Their offense, too,
is very efficient. They've thrown twenty four touchdown passes to
(03:16):
just seven interceptions. Nebraska has thrown twelve touchdowns to eleven
interceptions in comparison, so very well schemed. Led by a
former successful NFL head coach facing off against Matt Rule,
there's definitely a lot of storylines here, and you know,
I do think there'll be more Nebraska fans there than
people realize. There's a huge pocket of Husker fans in
(03:37):
the New York City area. There's a huge pocket and
Nebraska fans that live in Virginia. All of those fans
will will make their way into New York City for
that game. And it's a Saturday, so it will be
a little bit better traveling for fans to maybe get
up there on Friday to get to the game on Saturday.
Speaker 3 (03:53):
Yeah, we'll talk more about the pits dry bulls that unfolds.
Any surprises to you from the college football playoff announcement?
Speaker 2 (03:59):
Yes, well, I think Alabama beats SMU if they're on
the same field. But the problem is Alabama lost the
vander Built and they lost to Oklahoma, and you lose
both those games, I mean, just give it a committee
what they need. And SMU looked very competitive in both
their losses. I mean their BYU losses down to the
wire and obviously they're Clemson losses down to the wire.
(04:20):
So this whole strength of scheduled debate. The SEC only
plays eight league games. They still play the late November
by game. They've got to figure out how they want
to schedule and what they want to do. But there's
no doubt in my mind Alabama would beat SMU. But
the problem is Alabama had two bad losses that you
just can't look past when you're building this thing. It
(04:42):
is surprising too, just the way those first round buys work.
I just wonder if they can do that going forward,
where the Big twelve, the Group of five and the
a SEC if they're not really worthy of that first
round by can you give a team that's ranked outside
of you in the top twelve the first round by?
Which is what happened?
Speaker 1 (05:00):
Yeah, you don't know what I want to see. It's
going to be fun Indiana Notre Dame. That's going to
be a fun one to see.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
When we were up there. I told the writer from
Indianapolis Star. I said, I go you watch. You guys
are going to get a playoff game, and I bet
you play Notre Dame. It just made too much sense
that the two Indiana teams play a playoff game, and
because Notre Dame can't get a bye, they have to
play in the first round. And we get three Northern
Stadium playoff home games here.
Speaker 3 (05:29):
To open things up, Well, the last time they beat
the last time they beat Notre Dame at Notre Dame
Stadium was ninety eight. Eighteen ninety eight.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
Is that right?
Speaker 3 (05:38):
Yeah, this game should be in Bloomington, But if Indiana
was named Michigan or Ohio State, the game would be
in Bloomington.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
Hey, Sean, I want to ask to go back to
the penstride for a minute because we mentioned that player
from Boston College that might not play because it will
be a high draft pick. Does Nebraska have any players? Well,
two part question, does Nebraska have any players who will
likely set this out? Number one? Number two? If you
declare for the portal, Uh, you haven't left school and
(06:06):
nobody's picked you up. Can you still play?
Speaker 2 (06:09):
Technically? Yes, we've seen it you know, there's a guy
named Hunter Anthony. You never played at Nebraska, but he
transferred here from Oklahoma State. He played the Fiesta Bowl
on like special teams. So it does happen, but it's
rare and the portal does open the day. But yeah,
for opt out guys that you know for NFL, I
think ty Robinson would be the only one to watch
(06:30):
right now, at least they say he's playing. But you know,
you just never know what an NFL agent's going to
have to say. But Azaruka and ty Robinson would be
probably the two big names in this game. You know,
you wonder about their status, uh, you know, playing in
the in the Pinstripe Bowl.
