This week on the Five Heart Podcast, TWO guests. It’s Nate and Todd.Jon wonders if he has looked drunk or high the last five years. It’s possible. Todd says Jon used to have a mullet (I hope we get these photographs) and that their group of friends used to play a game called Stupidball.Speaking of stupid...the Big Ten cancelled (postponed?) the 2020 football season. And Nebraska wasn’t happy. No one was happy, let’s clarify. But Nebraska’s response to their desire to play football drew “hot takes” from idiots like Desmond Howard and Michael Wilbon. For the sake of argument, Bill Moos, Scott Frost, Ronnie Green, etc never said they wanted to leave the Big Ten. They did express a readiness and willingness to play football in the Fall.THERE’S NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT!Anyway...this whole thing is and has been the drizzling for five months.Be sure to “Use Your Voice” and became a part of the show by calling (402) 327-1830.

Well it’s not the schedule we had originally, but it’s better than nothing. And if you’ve been keeping up with the news, you may notice that if you’re not a P5 school, you are probably facing a year without football.There’s talk of food and beer and high school students abandoning their state for their senior year if their state has opted to postpone football.Be sure to “Use Your Voice” and became a part of the show by calling (402) 327-1830.

This episode I talk with Professor Ed. A Morse of Creighton University Law School about whether government should provide protection to universities and other organizations.We cover: Waivers such as the “Buckeye Pledge” and whether they remove any legal liability from a university
Should the government provide liability protection?
That this issue is unbelievably more complex than I realized
Any litigation could be tied up for years
Professor Morse is very good at diplomacy
I discovered I’m glad I am not a lawyer - I mean, I already knew this, but holy cow.

First off, we apologize for the quality of this week’s episode as we experienced technical difficulties (aka an awful internet connection). But thus Kevin and Patrick persisted and hope you enjoy the latest episode of Nebrasketball coverage.First up is the news that the separated Nebraska Cornhuskers Yvan Ouedraogo and Thorir Thorbjarnarson have been reunited with the team in Lincoln. The two players were stranded for the last few weeks overseas as they awaited the ability to return to stateside due to the COVID-19 pandemic.After the happy news, we shift to the sad update that former Husker Haanif Cheatham did not receive an invite to the [might be held in the future] NBA Draft Combine. However, Kevin breaks down the 11 Big Ten players who did receive an invite. He and Patrick discuss who might still drop out before the Monday deadline and come back for another season.Also at one point the question is brought up what mythical creature is Coach Hoiberg’s favorite? Be sure to let us know in the comments or by reply on Twitter!Finally, as mentioned in Episode 55, we discuss our top ten wins of the last decade by the Cornhuskers. You can follow along with Top 10 Wins Party 1 (6-10) and Top 10 Part 2 (1-5).

At the onset of this week’s recording, it was just Jon and Greg, talking about missing the hype (as ludicrous as it was) that surrounded the last summer heading into the football season. Remember those days? The Huskers were in the pre-season ranking, Adrian Martinez was a Heisman hopeful, and we knew a football season was on the horizon.Fast forward a year and we’re not even sure how many fans are going to be able to attend games in Memorial Stadium. We would openly welcome a little pre-season hype at this point.About midway through or so, CN Recruiting Writer Akelo Roberts saw a Zoom link in our Slack Chat Room and with no context, clicked it. Thankfully Jon was wearing a shirt. We heard a little about a new commit that Nebraska is welcoming to the squad and does Akelo feel we are in a better position this year than in recent years?Be sure to “Use Your Voice” and became a part of the show by calling (402) 327-1830.

This is all pretty much conjecture. Nate and I disagree on some key elements on this week’s show, and it’s a continuation of off-air conversations that we’ve had for a long long time.Also...sports are back. At least it was for a while. The defending World Series Champion Washington Nationals were at one point in a rain delay in the season opener against the New York Yankees.NHL is coming back. NFL teams are reporting to training camps soon. The NBA is in the bubble.The Washington Football Team is in search of a new team name. What are your suggestions? Bonus points if your suggestion is the Washington Sentinels.Be sure to “Use Your Voice” and became a part of the show by calling (402) 327-1830.
