The Dylan Raiola hype meter: Is it too low early in this Nebraska offseason?

- To close out January, we’re opening the Nebraska mailbag. Questions arrived from viewers and listeners who asked about the hype levels around quarterback Dylan Raiola, the makeup of a 105-man roster and expectations for Huskers in the 2025 NFL Draft.
Connor and Mitch bring their answers and look back at a big Thursday on campus in Lincoln. John Cook held his retirement press conference; Dani Busboom Kelly arrived; Zac Taylor returned (for one night), and the football team staged its annual dunk contest at halftime of a big win for the Nebraska basketball team against nationally ranked Illinois.
We’re talking about 9-3 football teams. Are they viewed differently than in the past, when Nebraska fired coaches for producing such records? And a question at the end about Connor’s beard-grooming practices. Join us on this Friday.

Hey guys! Enjoying the videos. Would love to hear a minute or two on NOT expanding the college football playoff. As you guys said about which teams are feeling good in the offseason it’s probably worse to lose a playoff game than win a lower tier bowl game. So you disappoint all but one team under a playoff model whereas with bowls you have half the teams feeling like the next year could be looking up. Big difference. Lots of fans lose interest as well in playoffs until the championship. Also on social, the enthusiasm for the college playoff games seemed to be a drag. Perhaps having some element where a top school is representing a conference in the playoff helps generate interest or have some trophy to take home helps fix that? Otherwise, perhaps college football fans get fatigued when watching other schools playoff games after one or two games. Current model is pretty ugly. 👎future model could get worse. 😅
Yall have to realize raiola will not get faster. He can become more agile but he's still gonna be a tank. His dad was a freaking olineman. I think what we saw during that run vs osu was his top speed. What he really needs to improve on is getting the ball out quicker. Part of the problem was our recievers last year. But hopefully this year he will get the ball out quicker.
The hypes about right. Needs to grow alot this season
You gotta put in the work in the off-season. Those players that come in to spring practice in shape physically and mentally are the ones that are going to get noticed and impress the coaches
Can the schools have a practice squad that doesn’t count against the roster cap? Similar to the NFL.
Probably if they aren't counted as student athletes, but employees. Like how you can have unlimited managers now, you could just happen to hire a bunch of former players as 'managers' that can pad up for practice. Theoretically of course
To be blatantly honest, Raiola looked overweight at basketball game. Can downplay that if you want, but if a critique is he needs to be more mobile and occasionally run for a 1st down then gaining weight doesn’t bode well for improvement there.
Could be true. This also feels like a pointless comment. Weight is cyclical and not very constant at all so I feel this is accurate but irrelevant.
You need more Linemen (both sides) as they need years of development before playing. WRs and RBs and a few DBs can play as frosh/sophs. 4 QBs min that can play.
7 TEs is plenty. You can shift from other spots if injuries come up. Injuries to O line and D line are most problematic imo.
He hasn’t done enough to get hyped.
Raiola needs to get counseled by Eric Crouch. Crouch needs to teach him how to use his shoulders to hit people and take a hit. With Raiolas size if he were to pick up crouches running toughness he’d be unstoppable. Crouch used to hit people before they had a chance to hit him.
He got plenty of hype last year! This year he needs to prove himself!
This show sucks
