Speaker 1 (00:00):
On a sports breeve. Now that's what made the Oscarbos
edess Sean Callahan liven like and Rosie.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
All right, Santa, Nowshano, let's take a little detour from
football for a second and talk about volleyball. Four thousand
people from Millard showed up at a high school volleyball
jamboree outdoors last night at Buell Stadium, which is wi
will never be confused as Arrowhead. But the truth is
(00:27):
four thousand people showing up to watch high school volleyball
outdoors is remarkable.
Speaker 3 (00:33):
Yeah, this is the as John Cook would say, this
is the volleyball capital of the world in Nebraska. I mean,
as far as you got the two pro teams here
that sell out at high numbers, we saw what Nebraska's
done and now this at the high school level, and
it really is remarkable what volleyball is to this state.
It does remind me of a kid growing up in
(00:54):
the state in the nineties and the impact football had
on so many people, and now is having that same
impact on so many young women and girls in the state.
And they also they all want to play in that
Devanti Center and the state loves volleyball. I mean it's
I give obviously Terry Pettitt a ton of credit, but
John Cook the way he just take it and then
(01:15):
to another level, to the point now where you know
we have Olympians that come out of the state. It's
it's remarkable what volleyball means to Nebraska.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
So do you attributed strictly to the wins, because for
a long time I thought the only reason volleyball is
really popular here is because we're a Final four program.
But it seems to me it's bigger than that. It's
become cultural like football. What really was the spark that
turned this thing into a cultural phenomenon in Nebraska.
Speaker 3 (01:44):
Well, it's not only just how dominant they are, because
there's a lot of dominant programs in women's volleyball, but
also just the way these athletes carry themselves, their role models,
their influencers. I mean, they know how to connect with
the young girls and women in the state and the
(02:04):
people to say I mean just on social media and
you feel like you know them. And I mean when
you have people like Macey Bosinger, who's got probably one
of the largest followings of anybody on social media, of
any athlete in Nebraska, I mean people just you know,
they want to know about these athletes in Nebraska and
then they just have followings that you don't even see
(02:25):
the football players have. It's it's remarkable. I mean they're
out in the community. Beca Alec hosted a clinic for
my sixth grade daughter and her friends on Sunday at
our Catholic school they go to, and I mean they're
just everywhere.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
Yeah, it's impressive. Okay On three, which is one of
the operations that Shano's engaged in, did a nice deep
dive into NIL and found that Dylan Rayola is fourth
in the country in NIL harvest. It's harvest time in Nebraska,
not just corn. Three million a year. Dylan Yola is
(03:01):
pulling in in shared revenue from Nebraska and NIL deals.
The upside to that is obvious for him, but it
seems to me there may be a downside too.
Speaker 3 (03:11):
We had arch Manning for some reason didn't make our list.
I would have to think he's towards the top. But yeah,
the total compensation you know, when you factor in Intodeeda's
money is Panini money and all the other deals he has,
plus the rev share money he is one. I mean,
this is not a surprise to anybody in my opinion.
You know when you when you see these numbers. But yeah,
(03:32):
there's a lot of pressure that comes with that. But
that is the market value for a major college football quarterback.
If he's not here right now, getting that he's at Miami,
he's at A and m he's at somewhere like that,
that is the demand. I mean, don't hate the player,
hate the game. I mean that's that that's the old saying.
And you know that that is the market for what
(03:53):
a guy like Dylan Royola is worth right now in
college football.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
You can't blame him.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
But the problem is if he has a bad game,
social media is going to light him up and they're
going they deal.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
With prout exactly. Then why not it's different now, I know,
I just I don't like booing in any case.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
But the kid, he's still a kid. But he's doing
three million a year playing football Nebraska.
Speaker 1 (04:14):
So all right, Sean, Sean, I have a great weekend,
thanks man, Then onward to game week.
