This is a very special edition of Monday Night Therapy hosted by Minnie Hunt, featuring the highly anticipated return of Fred Sacco for Round 2 of his Corn Nation debut! After some technical issues during his first appearance, Fred is back, and we’re excited to dive deep into the exciting happenings surrounding Nebraska Huskers football.
This past Saturday, Nebraska hosted the thrilling Husker Games in Lincoln, showcasing a vibrant array of events that highlighted the team’s talent and camaraderie.

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.

The Five Heart Podcast: NEBRASKAS SECRET SAUCE FOR 2025

The Five Heart Podcast on Corn Nation, which streams live on YouTube, Facebook, and X with your hosts Greg and Minnie, once again welcomes our lively chat “The Holgormaniacs:”. We’re delving into an essential topic for Nebraska football fans: the insights from Defensive Coordinator John Butler’s recent press conference.
In this episode, we’ll discuss Butler’s view on the “lost art of tackling” and how Nebraska’s commitment to physical practices sets the Cornhuskers apart from the rest of the Big Ten. Butler emphasized that tackling in the secondary is a critical trait that will be prioritized during spring practices. He outlined three key skills every defender needs: the ability to cover, tackle, and play the ball.
With player safety being a significant concern within the last decade, Butler has made it clear that instilling physicality while maintaining safety is a delicate balance. “You have to practice tackling bodies,” Butler states, emphasizing the need for real-time practice to improve this vital skill.
Don’t miss out on this informative discussion about tackling techniques, player development, and how Coach Matt Rhule’s focus on physicality is laying the groundwork for a successful season. We will cover these topics as well as Transfer Portal news. Tune in to discuss all things Nebraska football and support our Cornhusker team. As always, GBR!
*******
Editor’s Note: The concept of this episode was created before Thursday’s Husker press conferences. So the show you get is about more than just tackling. We hope you enjoy it. I know I had a great time on the show. GBR!
