Five Heart LIVE: The 2024 Nebraska Football Spring Game Broken Down by Hoss\
This week on the Five Heart Podcast, we continue our Spring Game 2024 conversation with the one and only Hoss Reuter.
Hoss has always brought a unique analytical approach to the Five Heart Podcast. Longtime listeners will recall him in the co-host chair for a number of years dispensing wisdom, sometimes at the expense of former HCSF.
Hoss has some topics he’s bringing your way:
• Offensive concepts/identity with Raiola at QB
• How Raiola/passing game will open up the run
• what I-Back will benefit the most from an opened up passing game
• Don’t use “pro style” as a pejorative
• how he thinks we will win games this year
• Matt Rhule is ahead of schedule
I’m as eager to learn more as you are.
So in honor of Hoss’ glorious return, this will be a FOOTBALL ONLY show. It’s okay, baseball lost to South Dakota State anyway. -
Husker Heat - The Nebraska Softball Show
Big doings for the Huskers these days. They played well enough against Minnesota to earn a bye in the B1G Tourney - will their reward be a 4th straight game against the Gophers?

Monday Night Therapy: With Matt Brown about EA Sports College Football AND the future of College Athletics
My former boss Matt Brown will be joining me tonight for Monday Night Therapy.
Matt Brown is the founder of Extra Points, a newsletter that talks about the college part of college sports. He is the most knowledgeable person on the entire planet about EA Sports College Football, the video game, outside of those who work for EA Sports.
We will be discussing EA Sports COLLEGE FOOTBALL!
Matt Brown has also been following the House versus NCAA case, and there is talk of a negotiated settlement coming up that will compensate, as part of the settlement, will compensate college athletes.
It is expected that this will cost sizable athletic departments that wish to participate between $17 and $22 million a year, according to Ross Dellenger in a published article on Yahoo Sports a few days ago.
Big schools like Nebraska - land grant institutions, members of the Big Ten and SEC are going to be able to afford the provisions in this settlement. Matt and I will discuss what the potential settlement means for college sports in the not too distant future.
What’s gonna happen to all the Division II and Division III schools, or even the group of five schools that can’t afford to just pump out $20 million to pay their athletes?
What will happen to Olympic sports across the board?
