We’re back on this Monday and getting serious about the Bowl of Fascination – our countdown of fascinating players on Matt Rhule’s Nebraska roster ahead of preseason camp. Practice starts in two weeks, so we’re doubling up today, with one player on the offensive side and one on defense. What do they have in common? Well, nine months ago, you may not have seen them as integral pieces. But now, there’s no doubt. 

Also, we review the weekend and discuss Ndamukong Suh’s official retirement from football. He is the greatest former Nebraska player in the NFL since … whom? SEC media days are here. They’re in Atlanta. So are the MLB All-Star festivities, an intriguing combination. 

We look ahead to Las Vegas next and discuss a former Nebraska baseball star in the news – and perhaps a future Nebraska basketball star. Join us.
