Five Heart Podcast: Nebraska’s Spring Football and the NFL Draft

Well hello there, pardner, it’s time for another rip-roaring episode of your favorite Thursday night show, the Five Heart Podcast. Listed among the elite Husker podcasts out there (it’s true...it's damn true)!
But enough about us. You’re here because you love Nebraska football. And if we’re being honest, there is no off-season. We’re in the middle of Spring Practice. This Saturday is the Spring Game, or rather the Husker Games, and the celebration that surrounds it. Greg and Minnie will have a breakdown of the day’s festivities.
Thursday, we hear from Husker Football GM Patrick Stewart, whom we hope has Nebraska’s big-picture gameplan for roster limits, NIL, and more.
But let’s face it...if we said we weren’t here for the Jacob Bower story, I’d be lying. The linebacker from California turned down free education at West Point to walk on at Nebraska and did everything right. Worked hard, improved his craft, and was rewarded with a scholly by Matt Rhule. But with Name-Image-Likeness growing, are these types of stories going to become extinct?
And of course, this show is LIVE during the first round of the NFL Draft. Which Huskers have the greatest chances to hear their names called in the next few days? Will Nebraska have a first-round draft pick? No pressure, Ty Robinson.
We’ll see you tonight at 9pm Central. Don’t miss it. Being a part of the live studio audience gives you the chance to be a part of the show.
Go Big Red. Always.
