Husker Doc Talk

The famed and original "Pipeline" was back at Memorial Stadium for the 2019 Nebraska Pipeline Offensive Line Camp.

Dr. Rob Zatechka was there to work one-on-one with over 300-campers.  He's very limited on what he can say because of NCAA rules; he had to choose between being a coach/instructor or a media member.  Yes, even this podcast is considered media. 

Despite not being able to talk about individual players, Dr. Rob gives excellent insight into what went on at the camp and how the "Pipeline" connected with recruits.... errrr campers.

Before we start this podcast, we want to point out that May is Mustaches for Kids month. Dr. Rob participates in this event every year as it raises hundreds of thousands of dollars for charities that focus on kids. This year the fundraising event will benefit Angles Among Us. The organization helps families with their financial support when a child has been diagnosed with cancer. You can help Dr. Rob meet his goal by CLICKING HERE and donating. Thank you in advance for your support.

Dr. Rob and Travis are back with another Husker Doc Talk Podcast presented by the Rimington Trophy. Yes, it's been a while, but when real life gets in the way, it's not as easy to get in the studio as you might think.

On this edition, we talk about the NFL Daft and the fact that no Husker player was selected; ending a 56-year streak that dated back to 1962. If you don't like the fact no player was selected this year, Dr. Rob says you better brace for a repeat in 2020 but after that, if all goes to plan a new streak will begin.

How about the spring game? Did Dr. Rob come away impressed with what he saw? Short answer, yes... and no. But keep in mind, it's only a spring game.

Finally, Fred Hoiberg is off to a fast start as the Head Coach of the Nebraska Basketball Team. We don't talk a lot of basketball, but we do tall about the fact we were talking about Fred being the Huskers head coach as far back as December or January.

On Friday, January 25, 2019, former Nebraska Football Coach Tom Osborne used his public influence to speak against the legalization of medical marijuana. You can see some of his comments by clicking here. 

As of right now 33 states and the District of Columbia allow for weed to be used for medical reasons. A handful of other states allow for it on a restricted basis. It should be noted that we just aren't talking about smoking a joint to ease someone's pain and suffering.  Medical marijuana would also include the use of cannabis oil which is used for anxiety, insomnia, joint and muscle pain. Cannabis oil is used by patients that have severe epilepsy. 

Tom Osborne is a doctor, but not a medical professional. On this edition of the Husker Doc Talk Podcast presented by the Rimington Trophy, a real medical Doctor, Rob Zatechka gives his expert opinion on medical marijuana. Is it safe? Is it a gateway drug? Should it be regulated by the FDA? What about the opioid crises in America? These are all questions answered in this podcast. 

Some of you will agree with what is said, some of you will not. We would love to hear your thoughts by emailing us, [email protected]. 

*Programming note. The music is way too loud at the beginning of this podcast; it gets a lot better after the first 30 seconds.

We have received a lot of emails, tweets, even a call from Dave Rimington himself asking where in the hell have we been? Our last podcast was back in November before the Iowa game and it seems a lot of you like to listen we Travis and Rob drink beer and talk football.

A lot has happened both football wise and personally since the last game of the season. We want to end the rumors now, Travis and Dr. Rob are NOT fighting. Let's be honest, we all know who would win that one anyway. 

We cover a lot of ground over the hour-long discussion on go in a lot of different directions, we hope you enjoy it! 

A big thanks to the Rimington Trophy for presenting the podcast. Thanks to Infusion Brewing Company for great beer. And thanks to Husker Hounds and Ticket Express for being awesome!

It's the week the Rimington Trophy Doc Talk podcast has been gearing up for all year long. Nebraska at Iowa, the battle for the Heroes Trophy. Okay, the trophy doesn't mean that much, the fact that this game is finally becoming a rivalry does.

On this episode of the Doc Talk Podcast presented by the Rimington Trophy, Dr. Rob and Travis discuss the momentum shift or perceived shift in the Big 10 West in November.

There is no doubt that Nebraska is putting up big numbers on offense and after a big win against Illinois and a moral victory against Ohio State things are looking better. But what about the defense? Big runs, big plays, etc. Dr. Rob says it's all getting better. He thinks you will see it this week against Michigan State. 

Dr. Rob lays into Travis about Iowa's three-game losing streak (another sign that things are changing) while drinking the Wet Hop Pale Ale from Infusion Brewing Company.

Why did Nebraska finally win a game? It could be that Dr. Rob Zatechka skipped and went to the Florida State vs. Wake Forest game instead. Seriously, that's what he did. On this edition of Husker Doc Talk Podcast presented by the Rimington Trophy, we find out why Dr. Rob was on Seminole territory while Nebraska was winning its first game.

Why we are drinking some find Infusion Brewing beer, we also tackle the question, is now the time to play a team like Bethune Cookman or would a week off like initially planned to be better? Also, the win over Minnesota the first of how many? Dr. Rob and Travis tackle that question.

Lots of questions from listeners this week, some think the defense is still way behind, another thinks Adrian Martinez is the best QB Nebraska has ever had.

To go or not to go? That is the big question following Nebraska's overtime loss to Northwestern last Saturday. On this edition of the Husker Doc Talk Podcast presented by the Rimington Trophy, Dr. Rob Zatechka and Travis Justice carry on their Twitter spat on what play the Huskers should have run on 4th and 1 in overtime. Do you kick the field goal? Or do you put Adrian Martinez under center instead of the shotgun?

On the @DocTalkSports twitter page, a fan poll asked what you would do with hindsight being 20/20.

47% Kick Field Goal

35% QB Under Center

18% QB In The Shotgun

Let's not forget the fact that besides not getting the job done offensively in overtime, the Husker failed on defense as well, letting Northwestern go 99 yards on its last possession in regulation. In short, there's plenty of blame to spread around.

Make sure to get your local craft beer at Infusion Brewing Company. Also, a big thanks to Husker Hounds and Ticket Express for the continued support of the podcast.
