Husker Doc Talk: New Coaches and Recruiting

Portal additions could be key to flipping the script for Nebraska football in 2022

Nebraska has some new names selling its product. Fans are excited to see what new offensive coordinator Mark Whipple, offensive line coach Donovan Raiola and wide receivers coach Mickey Joseph bring to the Huskers. But, unfortunately, time might not be on their side as it's pretty clear that Scott Frost has one more season to right the Big Red Ship after a 3-9 season and the team's fifth straight year without a bowl game.

On this edition of the Husker Doc Talk Podcast presented by the Rimington Trophy, Dr. Rob Zatechka and Travis Justice have a deep conversation about the new assistant coaches and what it means to recruit players. Nebraska's 2022 recruiting class is at or near the bottom of the Big Ten Conference if you believe the rankings. For a quicker turnaround to happen, watch the transfer portal become a source of proven and unproven talent Nebraska uses to start the rebuild.

Let's be honest. Nobody knows how this is going to play out. When Bill Moos hired Scott Frost and Fred Hoiberg, they were considered grand slam hires. But, unfortunately, both head coaches have failed to live up to their hype, and as Dr. Rob and Travis discuss in this episode, basketball is in a lot worse shape than football!
