- The price to pay for one franchise to have success in the playoffs is apparently their coach tearing his patellar tendon / Shut Up Sipple (sponsored by Bagels & Joe)
-We mentioned it on the show yesterday that the Timberwolves swept the Suns to move on to the Western Conference semifinals
-What we didn’t mention is the fact that head coach Chris Finch was collided with late in the game and tore his patellar tendon in doing so…the cost of a team usually in the cellar to succeed, apparently!

-We’ve heard the name Steve Calhoun in years past for QBs like Tommy Armstrong and Taylor Martinez; on Saturday, Dylan Raiola mentioned he’d be spending some time in Kansas City working with Mahomes and his trainer, Bobby Stroupe
-Stroupe also works with WR Chris Godwin and 30 different MLB players, but the Mahomes connection is one that will only make the buzz grow more…

-CBS’ Tom Fornelli wrote about Nebraska and Rhule prior to the Spring Game, and said Nebraska’s road back to relevancy starts with:
-1) Take care of the damn football 2) The forward pass exists, so use it 3) Make some field goals, and 4) Keep the defensive momentum
-Regarding FGs, per CBS Sports, Nebraska is 120th in the country since 2018 in field goal percentage, at 67%...yeah, that needs to improve to win close games

-Colorado got laughed at for a small crowd for their Spring Game, but the weather was truly cold and snowy, so you can’t criticize them THAT much…
-After the Spring Game, Sanders said he has work to do in Boulder and isn’t bolting after his sons go to the NFL…you buying that?

-The transfer portal closes on Wednesday, and even though Matt Rhule says everyone in the country is coming after Nebraska’s players (and that they’re transparent about it), continuity is still pretty impressive with this roster
-Will there be an any activity in adding players the next few days or not before the portal closes? Dylan Edwards ended up choosing Kansas State yesterday after choosing to leave Colorado…so he’s not an option

-We previewed it last week and it came true, as no Huskers heard their names called in the 7 rounds of the Draft. Several did sign as undrafted free agents with teams, which is no surprise, but it’s another disappointing year in the Draft
-The moaning seemed much louder from the fans about that stat 5 years ago when the draft streak was snapped…maybe they weren’t bothered as much because of how Raiola looked in the Spring Game!

-It’s way too early to make a comparison to him, but a lot of fans watching the Spring Game made comparisons of Raiola to Patrick Mahomes—everything from the way he takes the snap to the way he runs and buys time…it was fun to watch to say the least (16/22, 239 yds, 2 TDs, 1 INT)
-The other QBs showed good moments, too---and Jaylen Lloyd looked great at WR
-On the other hand, injuries to Demitrius Bell and Blye Hill both suffered patella injuries which could set them back for a significant amount of time…Hill was trending toward a starter spot as a CB

-There’s been numerous names over the years that had awesome Spring Games who were never seen or heard from ever again…which is not surprising for what is a scrimmage in general
-How can the common fan and media member learn from the Spring Game? Bill has been part of many of these over the years…what advice does he have on that?

-Rhule spoke with media yesterday and said that receiver depth will be limited; offensive linemen in gray jerseys will play for both teams; thud kickoffs with punting/placekicking; but no live tackling on STs
-What else did Rhule say about what things will look like?

-With RB Dylan Edwards entering the portal, that’s now 20 players who put their name in the portal from the Buffaloes in April alone
-We know the massive roster overhaul that Deion Sanders had last year, which resulted in a 3-0 start but a 4-8 record overall on the season…and overhaul on the staff, too
-Is there a path to THAT much turnover working or is that bound for failure?
