THIS IS THE FORMAT! (You know who you are...)

This week on the Five Heart Podcast, the team will discuss:

- Nebraska Basketball has a BIG weekend planned in November

- 4-star Big Man takes unofficial visit to Lincoln

- Elite 11

- Sundays commitment; 4 star DL Malcolm Simpson

- Our German commitment is on campus this week for his OV

- Who else is visiting this weekend?

- Who’s on the board that we are still recruiting?

- ‘2AM’ wins UFL Championship & Championship Game MVP

- For fun speculation: What’s the position group that will have the most production or impact for Nebraska FB 2024

Will the show slip off the tracks now and then? Maybe. But we’re counting on YOU (again...you know who you are) to keep us from completely falling off a cliff.

Yes, it’s Monday Night Therapy on a Thursday morning. It’s like the Big Ten having 18 teams. It’s a name. I’ll be doing this going forward - live shows whenever the schedule permits.

Dan Rubenstein of the Solid Verbal Podcast joined me to talk about the Oregon Ducks.

We had a good conversation about the fact that Oregon is going to be competitive on a level with Ohio State immediately as they move into the conference.

They have a NIL program that is well organized and well funded. They proved that this past year by picking up a gob of players from the portal to replace a gob of players that went to the NFL.

They are probably one of the top teams to be considered making it to the next college football playoff. T

hey have Nebraska on their schedule at the end of the year at the Big Ten Championship game and I pointed that out to Dan and I hope that he runs with it.

We discussed Oregon sports beyond football and they will be bringing a host of competition to other sports across the board.

We also talked about the future of college football with the house settlement and NIL and paying players and players as employees and Dan’s thoughts on that and then we also discussed what is going to happen when EA’s Sports College Football video game is released.

Please join myself and Corn Nation’s Aaron Rastovski this evening at 8PM CST for the debut broadcast of All The Right Movies, a show for sports movie enthusiasts.

Each week, we will review a memorable sports movie from a variety of angles. Of course, we’ll cover the plot, best scenes and lines, but also things like the music, comedy - intentional or not - the quality of the sports scenes, were there adrenalin scenes?, was there a montage (think of Rocky as the gold standard), and just how Ludacris was the plot? (Roll with me here.)

Tonight’s show is Necessary Roughness which came out in 1991 and starred Scott Bakula, Hector Elizondo, Robert Loggia, Harley Jane Kozak and Larry Miller to name a few. A former Husker also made an appearance, so I figured what better way to kick things off?
