Monday Night Therapy: How is Nebraska creating an advantage in college football?

It’s time for another thrilling episode of Monday Night Therapy! This week, we’re diving into the ever-evolving landscape of Nebraska football and college athletics as we dissect head coach Matt Rhule’s jaw-dropping quote from last summer: “A good quarterback costs 1-2 million dollars in the portal in NIL.”

Fast forward to today, and the stakes have skyrocketed! We will discuss the incredible ascent of quarterbacks like Darian Mensah, with an $8 million NIL deal, claiming the title of the highest-paid college football player in history. We’ll also touch on Carson Beck, who transferred to Miami with a reported $4 million NIL package. With NFL quarterbacks raking in $60 million contracts, where will this financial race end?

In addition to the pay for play dynamics, we’ll preview the upcoming Red and White spring game for Nebraska, sharing everything we know so far. Don’t miss out on insights from host Minnie Hunt and special guest Aaron Rastovski, who will update us on other happenings in Nebraska sports.
