This week, the Five Heart Podcast was being recorded while Nebraska was winning its first conference game of the season, defeating Minnesota. And we start the show by showing some love to the oft-maligned Nebrasketball Head Coach Fred Hoiberg.Todd thinks there are some among you who think Nebraska should hire Rick Pitino.Greg believes that while perhaps national media shapes public opinion (think politics), it is public opinion, even if it’s the vocal minority, that determines which way local sports media blows.And also in this episode, while it’s not completely Husker Athletics-related, we hear a little bit of Todd’s origin story. For example, do you know that Todd wrestled at the Division I level? Find out where and how he ended up at Nebraska, where he eventually met Jon and his liver hasn’t been the same since.Husker Women’s Bowling will be the first bowling to be televised on the Big Ten Network at the end of this month.And we wrap up the show with just a little baseball talkSo as always, GBR and tell your friends.

Greg, Todd and I get together to discuss the results of National Signing Day. Nebraska pulled in two four-star recruits on the last day, giving them quite the number of four star recruits when you include the transfer portal players.This is a roster that should win a lot of games.Unfortunately, I said the same thing last season.What’s going to be different this year?New offensive coaches. A special teams coach.Are the new coaches on the offense going to come together and work together as a team? Will everyone get along?Nebraska now has seven scholarship running backs:Rahmir Johnson
Jaquez Yant
Anthony Grant
Gabe Ervin Jr
Markese Stepp
Emmett Johnson
Ajay Allen
Which one of those running backs can get 1500 yards? Which one can get 1000?Nebraska has quite the number of receivers. Which of our receivers is 1000 yard receiver?

This week on the Five Heart Podcast, Greg, Todd, and Jon talk about the transfer portal, its pros and cons. This year, at least so far, Nebraska has really benefitted from the transfer portal. But Todd is curious as to how many athletes enter the portal and never land at a school.So while Greg didn’t intend for the transfer portal talk to dominate the conversation, it did occupy the most time.And while we recorded this before the Husker men’s and women’s basketball teams were in action Thursday, we had a pretty good idea of the outcomes.But Husker wrestling took down a higher-ranked opponent in the Wisconsin Badgers before also beating Northwestern.At the end of the episode, Todd talks fondly about the late Meat Loaf.

And Jon is on Twitter too much.All in all...welcome to the off-season. We’ll try to update you on basketball, but there’s another podcast for that...somewhere.Mostly it’s more lamentations about Scott Frost and Trev Alberts. It’s a FUN episode.
