«As I’ve told him, when I coach Heinrich I’m not coaching him for right now, I’m coaching him for next year and the year after.»
Everyone says they want to be in that position. They don’t. Matt Rhule knows that’s bluster from plenty, reality of a few.
It’s this subject that had him speaking this week about the thing he loves about Heinrich Haarberg.
«Not everyone would want to be the quarterback in this situation right now. There’s a lot of pressure. There’s a lot riding on your shoulders. If you don’t play well, if you don’t execute the option well, if you don’t execute the zone reads well, if you don’t execute the power sweeps well, if you don’t throw the ball well – there’s not a lot of margin of error for us on offense right now. …» Rhule said. «Every play is really kind of squarely on his shoulders.»
Huskers return home for Maryland
Joining the show is 1620 the Zone host John Bishop, who gives plenty of thoughts on the Huskers, as he makes his HypeCast debut.
The show starts on offense and of course that means some Heinrich Haarberg discussion, questions about the carry distribution at running back, thoughts about the offensive line play and a whole lot more.
Then there’s defense and we look at Nebraska’s pass rush and how the Huskers backend might hold up in a game with a lot of passing expected.
Finally it’s time for predictions — the oddly specific predictions, picks to click and score predictions. Who thinks Nebraska clinches a bowl birth and which guest sees more sadness on the horizon for the Huskers?
