Nebraska head football coach Matt Rhule took the podium at the Big Ten media days on Thursday afternoon. He opened his media availability by talking about the three players he brought with him.
It’s great to be here. Thank you all for being here and covering Nebraska football.
I want to make sure I begin by thanking Tony Petitti and the entire Big Ten Conference. In my short amount of time it’s been first-class, and all the other coaches have been amazing.
I want to thank Trev Alberts who is here with us. I appreciate him giving me this job and this great opportunity. I want to thank everyone back home, everyone in Nebraska. It’s been an amazing six months. Excited to get to the season.
I brought three players — Luke Reimer, Jeff Sims and Ethan Piper. All three of those guys, they’re not just here for their own accomplishments — and they’re all very accomplished — they’re also here because they represent our team.
And I know it’s just the beginning — we’re just getting started. But I like this team. I like our players. And I hope you see really good football this fall.
