When creating a competitive balance or achieving a competitive advantage, it's all about the money

Steve Farrell

parity - they limit scholarships in the name of parity; you want a level playing field for all the schools - cap the salaries..

Linda Ogren

I think they should be put on type of commission, I worked for 2 major companies for many years and that worked real well. You now tell me they get FIRE for doing bad job & the next pays them more WHY

College athletic coach. Get real. Who needs more than 1 or 3 million a year to live a fulfilling very successful life with an amazing home, great car, retirement and vacation however you want.

Robert Lloyd

I don't think any government funded university coach should make more than $250,000 per year AND the coach should be hired from the high school level within their own state. No outside money either.

That is socialism. In America, we are a free market...someone can pay as much or as little as they want, it is controlled by market forces.

If a school cannot compete then drop the game or move to another division.

Tristan Swanson

The universities pay their staff what they feel they are worth. It is all based on the revenue that they generate, so why in the world would we restrict it?

Doug Miller

As ridiculously high as, for example, Saban's contract is at Alabama, there is a value he has brought to the university. The investment in Frost will do the same at UN.

Feature back is important to have but DEPTH is also CRITICAL. If don't have a feature back then either then depth chart is flooded with talent. But in the Big Ten you better have a GREAT 2nd and 3rd string to make it through the season. With EJ it helped he was so quick he didn't take huge hits

Terry Barker

Nebraska was always most stable when we had a feature back that can actually "carry" the team with his legs.

Ron Joseph

Nebraska in the past was successful with one top back. We've fallen on hard times because we haven't developed or recruited a great back. But the others need to be developed so we have a pipeline of backs like we use to have.

Roger Craig & Tom Rathman ring a bell ? Not only a dynamic duo playing for NU, but also for the 49ers !! YES we want multiple RB’s to rotate in & out to keep their legs fresh!! GBR 🎈

Look at the success in the playoff, the teams have 2-3 capable RB's they use to keep them healthy and offer the D different looks. Johnson was unique, most backs can't take that many snaps a season and stay healthy and sharp.

PJ SAid

Every good team, including the NFL, will rotate backs on a regular basis. This last year Nebraska should have used a 2nd running back more often - NEB is lucked out EJ stayed healthy.
