Hear that? All the talk coming out of Lincoln about a breakthrough season in 2024? Husker players running their mouths about how they are going to shock the world? Actually, I don’t hear it either. Because there is no talk coming from players in Lincoln about being the old Nebraska again or restoring order. And that is a good sign. I remember a bad sign, back in 2006. Maybe you remember it, too.

AINSWORTH – It would be hard to find a sports fan in Nebraska who hasn’t heard of Carter Nelson. Ainsworth kid. Husker football recruit. Six-foot-5, 225 pounds. Great athlete. A household name around the state, Nelson’s the modern-day version of an early 1970s Tom Kropp from Aurora or an early 1980s Bill Jackman from Grant. Small-town kids with big-time talent. Is Nelson the real deal?
