Rece Davis and Pete Thamel sit down with Nebraska head coach Matt Rhule to discuss how his NFL experience, paired with his time at Temple and Baylor, will help him revive Cornhuskers football, why Rhule rooted for defensive coordinator Tony White to get the UCLA head coach job, and what in the world a Runza is. Then, Rece and Pete get into what it's been like working with former Alabama head coach Nick Saban since he joined ESPN, how Pat McAfee has been able to bring Saban's personality out front and center and how sure they are that Alabama fans are totally patient, pragmatic and calm following Saban's retirement and not at all worried that Ryan Grubb is going to the Seahawks.

I've never seen a husker coach get so many interviews in my lifetime. Its a testament of who coach Rhule is and what he's doing for Nebraska. I couldn't be prouder he's our coach

So confident in saying that Nebraska is on it's way . Maybe not the glory days of dominant football under Osborne and Delaney but being in contention year in and year out for conference championships and if things fall in place once in while maybe with any luck a national championship. Why not us ?

Clear why Matt Rhule gets so much respect around CFB. One of the best to not only build a team, but young men. Sets the example. Never puts the focus on himself, only those around him. If you haven't seen what he has done lately, go look at Nebraska Athletics, not just football. ☠️☠️☠️☠️

Imagine if Bob Devaney had been interviewed like this back in the early '60's when he took over Nebraska. I suspect it would be quite similar to Coach Rhule's interview now. Devaney saturated himself in all things Nebraska. I lived in a western Nebraska town of less then a thousand souls and Devaney came to our town and had dinner at our largest venue, the city auditorium, and presented an evening of football with film on the Huskers.

I really think this is the guy that can get Nebraska back to an elite level, what he did at Baylor was very impressive. Took over a horrible team and situation and 3rd year had them in the big 12 championship. I loved watching Nebraska football when I was younger back during the late mid to late 90's their physicality and the option offense was so far ahead of everyone else at the time. Not even a Nebraska fan per se just think college football is better as a whole when certain programs like them are competitive.

Rhule hired the entire D staff without White's input. White's a good coach, and I bet will get a head job next year, but Rhule will find a replacement that will do exactly what he wants.

As a Husker born and bread, its interesting to me that ESPN has become what it is. I grew up with great hosts from ESPN. I also find it interesting the choice of camera angles (either they know how cameras work or they do not). Then after a great interview with coach Rule they pivot to Saban "joining" ESPN. The thirst is more obvious than I have ever seen. I feel very confident ESPN has lost a big step in what they are. Had not coach Rule not been on this "episode" there is zero chance I would have ever seen it. I do not want ESPN to fail, but no other network now deserves to have that happen. It feels like they still think this is the 90s where they are the only player in the game. Just 2 hours in of this video being released there is a hard fought 85 likes with a total of 4 comments. ESPN used to be the go to for sports information. Some half wit that is very disconnected hosting with another very half wit hoping to capture something that never existed. A coach now representing Nebraska has more charisma and actual incite, just astonishing. Just wow, this man said people are struggling with phones, no deflection there in any way. Perhaps do not comment on things you don't understand from a network that USED to be respected. These two are the boomers we all fear. Also, do not attempt to tell me where to get this "Podcast" FFS, its time for ESPN to catch up.

I'm not in on that one. A lot of husker fans seem to like him, plus they hung on to frost for 4 years and he was a terrible HC. Husker football never improved under frost.
