I never quite understood why Nebraska football was such a powerful thing for so many years. It's not a highly populated stated. The weather isn't wonderful. It's not a glamorous place. The one thing I heard about was an amazingly loyal fan base that filled the stadium for decades, giving the program the financial and emotional support it needed to excel. They obviously had some excellent coaches. Their story is something we can identify with the decline of our football, basketball and lacrosse programs. Some of the language in it are things we've heard around here.
“When you watch it, you see that the kids are playing hard,” said Joseph, the 54-year-old associate head coach under Scott Frost and first-year wide receivers coach, “one or two plays away. They came up short. They came up short a lot.”

Despite 20 years of frustration, Nebraska faithful expects the 'N' to rise again
Obstacles exist, but Scott Frost and his Lincoln-loyal staff have faith a mix of talent and passion can lead Huskers back to prominence.
