One thing is clear about the 2024 Nebraska football season. The Huskers
managing to keep defensive coordinator Tony White in the fold is already a win.
Of course, the second-year Husker DC wouldn’t agree with you if you told him
that to his face. It’s not that he’s overly shy, or humble to a fault. He knows that
NU had a heck of a season in 2023. It’s simply that he doesn’t want the focus to
be what the team accomplished last year. He wants it to be on this coming season.
Nebraska football DC has motivational message all about the now
“This group hasn’t done anything yet,” nose tackle Nash Hutmacher recalled
about the meeting. “Whatever we did last year, that doesn’t matter. This group of
guys, in this room, hasn’t done a single yet. I think that set the tone pretty well.”
I was fortunate to be around some really good defensive coaches as well, and
every year, it’s a new team, it’s a new attitude, so you go into it like the first
year,” White said during his 10-minute press conference on Tuesday.
“Put that chip on our shoulder and let’s roll,” White added.
That’s been a common theme of this spring and summer. The Nebraska
football coaches seem to think they’ve pinpointed what can make this team
finally get back to a bowl. Now we see if that’s true.
