Seems like an excellent choice.

Would love to see Jacory Barney be used as a true weapon in the return game.

Didn't we get an elite returner in the portal? I'd rather see Barney fresh for 10-15 touches a game. He was lethal in sweeps and screens last year when blocking held up.

After seeing the statistics for the Tenn Vols this last year it is clear that Eckler has made advancements in his philosophies. This is a good get and one of the coaches I am highest on.

Welcome home coach.

My youtube feed came up with some Husker classics from the Solich era recently. One thing that stood out was our ST was full of starters (hopefully HCMR is reading this), and the defense was super aggressive. I have not seen our D play like this in 20 years.

This will add 2 wins to our 2025 schedule.

Nowhere to go, but up . . . and Ekeler I think will be fantastic. I don't envy the turnaround job he has, but he'll fire those dudes the hell up.

This is EPIC! Most of the Needs for the 2025 Season are complete, or very close to complete.

 

[Scarlet And Cream]

Wait! Adam Carriker has a positive reaction to a random piece of Husker news?

Not gonna hack on the prev guy, but this is a special coach now. This guy breathes spec teams
