Rhule’s January Transfer Portal Masterplan Unveiled
Matt Rhule and his staff have mapped out an offseason strategy that starts with locking down their own underclassmen before raiding the transfer portal for game-changing talent. With general manager Pat Stewart—fresh off Super Bowl wins in New England—overseeing portal operations, Nebraska has climbed from 42nd to 22nd nationally in portal recruiting under Rhule. Key additions like Ben Scott, Ceyair Wright, and receivers Jahmal Banks and Isaiah Neyor have already contributed, and now Rhule aims to blend retention of stars such as Dylan Raiola and Nyziah Hunter with targeted transfers to build the deepest roster yet for 2026.
Because nothing says “college football renaissance” quite like hiring an ex-Patriots scout to play ringmaster at your portal circus. Apparently, the secret to national relevance is equal parts “keep the kids happy” and “scoop up any random wide receiver with a name that sounds fast.” Here’s hoping Pat Stewart’s NFL Rolodex doesn’t forget Nebraska’s number between contract negotiations and fantasy league smack talk.
Undefeated Huskers Head to Rowdy Wilkinson Hall
Nebraska Volleyball secured its 37th conference crown—and sixth Big Ten title—by sweeping Iowa, led by Andi Jackson’s .571 hitting clip, Harper Murray’s 11 kills, and Taylor Landfair’s career-kill milestone. The sellout-streak stretched to 350 regular-season matches. Now 27-0 overall and 17-0 in conference play, the top-ranked Cornhuskers travel to face No. 17 Indiana at Wilkinson Hall, where NU owns a 24-1 series edge.
Nothing says “we run the world” like racking up 350 consecutive sellouts while your opponents still can’t find their serving motion. Indiana’s freshmen might bring fresh faces, but they’ll soon discover that playing Nebraska volleyball is like trying to brawl a swarm of bees—if those bees were also Olympic-caliber.
Nebraska Sneaks into Early NCAA Bracket Buzz
After a 5-0 start and a nine-game win streak off last season’s College Basketball Crown, Nebraska has cracked early bracketology: ESPN slots the Huskers as an 11th seed in the First Four, while CBS Sports pegs them as a comfortable No. 9 in the West. Nebraska’s wins include victories over West Georgia, FIU, Maryland-Eastern Shore, Oklahoma, and New Mexico. A potential First Four clash with Georgia could lead to a Midwest matchup against Kansas. CBS’s bracket has NU facing Ole Miss and eyeing top-seeded Purdue in round two.
Bracketologists proudly project the glow of “first four in” onto a team that still hasn’t figured out how to guard the three-point line. Somewhere between November and March, the Huskers will learn that being “in” means more than just camping on bubble territory—it requires actually winning games people care about.
