    Is the option to get alcohol at Haymarket Park something that would draw the common fan to a Husker baseball game? / Shut Up Sipple (sponsored by Bagels & Joe)

    Is the option to get alcohol at Haymarket Park something that would draw the common fan to a Husker baseball game? / Shut Up Sipple (sponsored by Bagels & Joe)

    -Nebraska initially was not going to have alcohol at Husker baseball games this Spring, but with another vote coming this Friday regarding the issue, it appears that fans will be able to enjoy a drink after all
    -For someone that isn’t a diehard fan of the team, does this make it more of a reason to go or not? For those who DO go to a lot of games, how much does this change things when it likely gets approved?

    Matt Davison (The 1890 Initiative)

    -1890 is having a Big Red Rally on Friday on a different radio network---which we encourage fans to participate in—but we also like to help out ourselves….how have things been so far with new AD Troy Dannen?
    -We saw the basketball program have their best season in 10 years and still lose guys to the portal…how important is 1890 and NIL in keeping players around and attracting new ones compared to before?
    -The Spring Game is just 11 days away…how important will that day be for 1890 and NIL?

    The 15-day Transfer Portal window began yesterday and goes through April 30th…does that make Nebraska’s choice of a late Spring Game wise or questionable?

    The 15-day Transfer Portal window began yesterday and goes through April 30th…does that make Nebraska’s choice of a late Spring Game wise or questionable?

    -As Bill pointed out yesterday, schools like Utah had their Spring Game this past weekend, which allowed players to go through Spring Ball and see where they’re at with the team, and to see if it’s time to move on
    -Nebraska players would be leaving right in the middle of Spring ball if they were to leave now…and would only have 3 days to make a decision following the Spring Game if they left. Was that by design for Matt Rhule and staff? If so, is that the most desirable thing?
    -Rhule has been very effective in not losing a bunch of players to the portal in general so far…

    Things are starting to come together for Nebrasketball, adding their 2nd player from the transfer portal in a few days time

    Things are starting to come together for Nebrasketball, adding their 2nd player from the transfer portal in a few days time

    -For everyone that was panicking at the attrition that hit the roster following the disappointing loss to Texas A&M in the NCAA Tournament….can we relax a bit now?
    -Nebraska added point guard Rollie Worster from Utah yesterday, joining North Dakota State transfer Andrew Morgan as the newest additions to the squad. Worster started all 76 games he played in at Utah (for former Nebraskeball assistant Craig Smith), averaging 9.9ppg, 4.9rpg and 5.5apg before his injury in January
    -That’s a big time pick up for Fred Hoiberg…where does he go next as he tries to continue and fill the roster?

Rise and Shine

Early Break is like listening to 3 guys that have been together for a lifetime. They obviously take their jobs very seriously (they are VERY knowledgeable and informative), but they don’t take themselves very seriously (they literally make me laugh out loud at least once each episode). Early break is the best radio show/podcast in Nebraska by far. Sipp and Jake clearly “get” each other and are very synergistic. As great of a coach Bill was, I think he’s and even better radio personality. The Jake, Sipp, and Busch show will be around for a LONG time and should plan on a road show/tour with live performances.

Podcast

Please fix the playback volume on the podcast. Also, ads play right in the middle of conversations which is absolutely ridiculous. Great show!

listening every day ,

Great show

My only complaint is I am forced to listen to podcast because where I live and my job and on certain days I am missing quite a few segments and the segments come in all different order. is there any way to do number them?
