Players returning to NU for 2026

I haven't seen anything convince me that our S&C isn't just that bad.

I honestly don’t know what we actually do, so it’s hard for me to take a stance one way or another. I’m a S&C guy from way back, so I understand what we should be doing and that it doesn’t equate 1 to 1 with wins and losses. I will say I wasn’t a fan of Duval’s bullshit, but aside from a few video shorts, don’t know much about what Campbell does with them.

That said, I don’t know what we’re doing and I’ll add the training table to that conversation as well. I saw a piece on the nutritionist and how she was custom tailoring plans to individuals based on their own personal needs and position requirements, but didn’t really see what that means.

When we start winning again, it won’t be talked about. Don’t know when that happens.
 
Let’s hope the following players leave
Gage stenger
Janiran Bonner
Dylan Parrott
Jaylen George
Demetrius Bell
Sua Lefotu
Jacob Bower
Mason Goldman
Rahmir Stewart
Maverick Noonan
Willis McGahee
Carter Nelson
Keona Davis
Mac Markway
Gabe Moore
Justyn Rhett
Caleb Benning
Rex Guthrie
Donovan Jones
Kamdyn Koch

This is dumb, and a silly overreaction.

However, I'm certain Noonan, McGahee, and Jaylen George are all leaving.

Carter Nelson's blocking went from awful to outstanding this season. As the game began to spiral yesterday, I focused a lot on him. He was owning DEs and linebackers on running plays and in protection. And then he got wide open a bunch. LaTeef just wasn't very good.

Bonner is a good football player. Not sure why you want to get rid of him.

Demetrius Bell is a freak, but might be made of glass.

Players like Jones, Guthrie, Benning, and Stenger will all get better with time.

Gabe Moore, LeFotu, and Stewart are dead weight. Bower is ok as special teams player, but if you need him to play double digit snaps, you're in trouble in the Big Ten.

Goldman played well in mop up time yesterday. I wouldn't run him off yet.
 
85 new players would be exciting

Running whatever it is we’re doing back for year 4 with new patches on used bald tires will not be

Just get us to the 2027 off-season already
 
After that game today I don't think there are many that you could pencil in as starters.
Certainly not, but nowadays you have to commit to paying a guy like a starter before he is one. Guys like Shavers, Jones, Nwaneri (among others) will ask for a bump in NIL, as they should, but I’m not sure we should pay the full freight just yet. Gotta be willing to let a dude walk. Can’t be stuck paying top dollar for mediocrity.

Did Nwaneri even play yesterday? He gone?
 
I'd give Bell a shot. Supposedly looked really good before injuries. Others can bounce, especially Guthrie.

Also, it won't matter who we have at LB as long as Rusty Dvoracek is still here stealing money from the progrum.

Edit - also want K. Davis to stay.
Bell has been injured for two straight seasons? I think he needs to go as the likelihood of him getting injured again are high. He’s getting hurt practicing.
 
Campbell received a massive pay raise & extension 2 months ago.

From $650,000 to $1,000,000.
What are we all missing or not seeing with S&C? That seems like a premiere amount of money and we should be way more developed at this point.
 
Retuning to Nebraska football ok, but which ones will be returning for Avengers: Doomsday?
