Nebraska football legends came and spoke to the team about the “good old days” and other kernels in this morning’s Go Big Read.

The Nebraska football team has been celebrating all that used to be great about the Huskers. The Scott Frost arrival has been a coming home party of sorts.

Earlier this week, that party included having a couple of former Huskers from that era come and speak to the team. The message was quite clear.

It’s time to get back to Nebraska being Nebraska. These kinds of speeches have been tried before.

Will it be different this time? Check out the article and other kernels in this morning’s Go Big Read.
