I think he's on the right track-Give him some time and he will turn this program around!

He has assembled a great coaching staff, and the recruiting momentum is building.

He is doing everything that he needs to do to win. Bringing in Bob Diaco was a great move, one that shows he wants to win at Nebraska. Riely knows football and he knows people, he is a great hire.

He came into the program with disgruntled players and position holes everywhere. Attitudes have changed and recruiting is has improved dramatically. He also made necessary coaching changes.

We have been down for a while now. Since Osborne left, other than Solich's first few seasons, it just hasn't worked out with any of the other coaches. I think Riley can do it though and certainly hope that he does! I think before it's all said & done, we'll be hoping he doesn't leave or retire.

Give me more options! Riley will beat teams he's not supposed to and lose to teams he shouldn't! He shouldn't... but he will!

It will take a season for the defense to gel and the offensive staff needs coaching adjustments similar to the defense. The defense actually out ranked the offense nationally last season. Riley has several more friends to fire before Nebraska can win their division let alone their conference.

Like the guy, but he has made some amateurish play calls. "you can't fix stupid"

Is it reasonable to consider Nebraska a potential playoff team in 2025?

With their schedule, they might be able to make it this year.

They are as much a potential playoff team as Arizona State and Indiana were last year. There is no harm is fans dreaming big. A team with a recent history like Nebraska is going to put it together this year. Why not the Huskers?

Just wishful thinking but I believe the talent is there. We will need a few breaks but it is possible.

They have a schedule that gets to the year 3 Matt Rhule 10 wins. If they can hang with Penn St. then they could be in the conversation as a 10-2, 11-1 team.

So tired of delusional preseason talk. How about a winning conference record and a bowl win.

NU has not been able to recruit top notch players. The media has led fans to believe that 3 star players can be molded into 4 and 5 stars. That dog don’t hunt?

We simply don't have the level of talent needed to reach the playoff. Achieving more wins that last year is a more realistic goal.

Anything can happen, but up until now, Rhule hasn't shown that he can get the job done. I hope I'm wrong, but I just can't by the hype. Show me on the field.

They haven’t done anything on the field to warrant that expectation. But there is nothing wrong with the team setting it as a goal and striving to reach that goal.

Immanuel Kant would say no, but he had a very strict definition of reason. I can only imagine him pooh-poohing the Huskers because Rhule is compulsed to pass the ball on clear running downs. Afraid to actually hand the ball to the fullback on 3rd and 1. And instead is in the shotgun. NO THEY KANT!

Thry’ll be better this year, but I think 9-3 or 8-4 are likely which keeps them out of contention this year. My hope is that by year 4 under Rhule will finally get them ibto the playoff picture

They need to prove they belong. Still to ,many players on the squad that played on bad teams and don't know how to win yet.
