Nebraska's Matt Rhule Advocates for Developing Own Players Over Costly Portal Transfers

Following a 5-7 season with quarterback struggles, Rhule sees potential in current players and emphasizes the high cost of portal transfers.

Nebraska football coach Matt Rhule has expressed his preference for developing his own players rather than relying on the transfer portal, despite the team's quarterback struggles this season.
Rhule estimates that a good quarterback in the transfer portal costs between $1 million and $2 million, highlighting the financial implications of the transfer system.
Nebraska had three different starting quarterbacks this season, none of whom threw for 1,000 yards.
The Cornhuskers finished the season with a 5-7 record, falling short of bowl eligibility for a seventh consecutive season.
Rhule believes the current quarterbacks have potential to grow with further development.
