Husker head football coach Matt Rhule may have hit a grand slam home run when he plucked Tony White out of Syracuse University to be his defensive coordinator at Nebraska. Judging from my recent Husker football survey, readers also endorsed White as their top assistant coach. What's not to like? Here are some stats that might tell us a lot about Tony White's impact on the Husker defense in 2023.

Nebraska assistant coach Tony White has more incentives to stay in Lincoln. The Husker associate head coach and defensive coordinator signed a restructured contract. This comes after White was nominated for a second straight year for the Broyles Award, given annually to the nation's top assistant. White's salary increases to $1.6 million per year for each of the remaining two seasons on his contract. “Tony White has all the attributes you look for in a coordinator or assistant coach,” Nebraska Head Coach Matt Rhule said. “He builds great relationships with his players and fellow coaches and is...

It was a landslide. With the 2023 season coming to an end, I asked 50 Husker fans on a blustery and cold Black Friday morning before the Nebraska-Iowa game to tell me which Nebraska assistant football coach performed best this season. It was no contest. First-year defensive coordinator Tony White ran away with it, getting 94 percent of the vote. In my previous “best assistant coach” surveys, nobody had ever garnered 50 percent. I tried to show the participants the list of 11 candidates below, but most of them quickly gave me their selection, and most immediately knew White by name, which is a ...

The biggest news from Tuesday's Nebraska football press conference had nothing to do with Friday's game against Iowa — except perhaps for the Senior Walk that will precede it. Defensive lineman Ty Robinson told reporters he has decided to return for a sixth year at Nebraska. Robinson said he made the decision Sunday after talking it over with his coaches. The 6-foot-6, 310-pound junior said he believes an additional season will help him "sharpen some tools and skills" in his pursuit of an NFL career. "I put a lot of thought into it," Robinson said. "I was out last winter and spring with an inj...

Nebraska offensive coordinator Marcus Satterfield said he understands fans' frustration with the team's quarterback play, but he preached patience during Tuesday's post-practice press conference. "We may not be playing at an elite level right now," he said, "but y'all don't see what I see as far as how they come to work and the energy that they practice with and the preparation that they do. The teammates they are. It's really cool. This group is getting better and better and better, and our best days are ahead of us and I think they're coming soon. I can't wait to see all this come to fruitio...

Nebraska's defensive and offensive coordinators accepted the blame for subpar performances on both sides of the ball in Saturday's loss to Michigan State. Offensive coordinator Marcus Satterfield noted that first-down production was poor, a "common theme" this season. "I've got to put them in positions where they can go and have a chance to execute plays to get ahead of the sticks," Satterfield said after Tuesday's practice. Defensive coordinator White said there were situations in the game where "I don't think I was aggressive enough as a play-caller" — playing coverage instead of attacking. ...

Nebraska football is coming off a 31-14 win over Purdue, improving to 5-3 and inching another step closer to its first bowl birth since 2016. The Huskers have won five of their last six games and have now won three straight for the first time since 2016. I've gotten several emails about the current state of the program, so I decided to pick a couple out that I've edited for succinctness and give my thoughts. Do you think Nebraska can win the West? - Marcus (St. Louis, Mo.)Let's take a cue from head coach Matt Rhule and just try and go 1-0 this Saturday against Michigan State. With this offense...

It was a game-changer when Nebraska blocked a Purdue field goal attempt Saturday and returned it for a touchdown. Husker special teams coordinator Ed Foley is still waiting to see something remotely as productive from Nebraska’s punt-return unit. The Huskers have returned eight of their opponents’ 44 punts for a total of 20 yards this season. No return has gone for more than eight yards. In the Big Ten, only Indiana has less yardage per return. “We need work on that unit across the board,” Foley said after Tuesday’s Nebraska football practice. “I like some of the things we’re doing on special ...

Fixing the fumbles has been a top priority since Nebraska running backs flirted with disaster by coughing up the ball twice in the fourth quarter against Illinois on Oct. 6. Nebraska offensive coordinator Marcus Satterfield said Tuesday that Anthony Grant had a "really good week" in that regard. "He's one of the most talented running backs in our league," Satterfield said, "but if you can't hold onto the football, now you start messing with wins and losses." Grant and backup Emmett Johnson each turned the ball over in the late going against the Fighting Illini. Johnson too has since done a goo...
