Nebraska starting quarterback Heinrich Haarberg met with the media earlier in the week. The Nebraska native was confirmed as the starting quarterback for this Saturday’s game against Maryland. Haarberg was asked about his relationship with head coach Matt Rhule and offensive coordinator Marcus Satterfield as the season has evolved.
“Coach Rhule it’s weird as a first year, especially when I’ve been here. He didn’t recruit me, he met my family for the first time a couple weeks ago, he didn’t know what kind of environment I grew up in, how I handled things and he’s seen how I handled it. He’s just kind of ran with it and as we finish out this year, going into next year he’s getting to know me better and I’m getting to know him better too. How he treats me, some weeks he’s been on me really hard and other weeks he’s kind of backed off, just let me do my own thing. I think it’s a good balance of both.”
The quarterback will lead the Huskers against Maryland this Saturday at Memorial Stadium. Kickoff is set for 11:00 a.m. and the game can be seen on Peacock.
