Maybe a valid take, but that ship has sailed.
I didn't they went anywhere? I can niether confirm or deny they are almost as accessible as buying a beer.

. And change from Big Ten conference to Big12, MWC or MAC.
Changing to the Big Ten is the best thing that could have happened to Nebraska Sports. And though I have not a single metric I imagine it has been just as good for the academics, which is the reason for the existence of Good Old Nebraska U after all. It would be foolish to go backward just to benefit the football team. If Matt Rhule can't handle it, there is some young coach out there who sees the bigger picture, who has seen what Fred Hoiberg has done, what the softball program has done, even the baseball team. (Volleyball got there years ago but seems to get better every year regardless). There is a coach out there somewhere who sees Big Ten football as the best in the country, and who maybe sees what Matt doesn't, particularly an athletic department that is unafraid to break a paradym or two to resurrect the huskers as a national juggernaut. If I were the AD I would use the other sports successes to get football back on track.No way twenty years ago or so but now somewhat legit. Like Northwestern, Baylor, etc.
Also change from Cornhuskers to Bugeaters
Anyway I give up Top25 team ratings for at least 5 years .....
BEST scenario IMO, 6W-6L (2026 season). Luckily Tennessee Vols left schedule (whew)
Use corrugated steel for the roof, and call it "The Grain Bin."
Massive renovation and real grass in UNL Memorial stadium.
Retractable pitch. Storing grass in an underground, climate-controlled "greenhouse" to enable hosting year-round
