It was the final Day 3 of Big Ten football media days 2026 in Chicago, and with it, we heard from the last third of the league’s coaches and teams, after hearing from Ohio State head coach Ryan Day and players on Wednesday. On Thursday, we heard from Matt Rhule (Nebraska), Mike Locksley (Maryland), Kyle Whittingham (Michigan), David Braun (Northwestern), Jedd Fisch (Washington), and Curt Cignetti (Indiana).
If you are like us, we are interested in what all the head coaches in the conference have to say, and if so, then we have all of the press conferences from each head coach on Thursday for you. In this case, we’ve got Nebraska head coach Matt Rhule and what he had to say about where the Cornhusker program is and what might be in store for this year.
Have a listen. It’s time for Rhule to show more progress than what we’ve seen so far in his first couple of years. He’s talked a big game but has yet to restore Nebraska to the state for which he was hired. Will this be an over-the-hump type of year in Lincoln?
We’ll continue to bring you sound bites, news, and commentary from the next couple of days at Big Ten media days, so be sure to check back.
