In this episode, we’ll discuss Butler’s view on the “lost art of tackling” and how Nebraska’s commitment to physical practices sets the Cornhuskers apart from the rest of the Big Ten. Butler emphasized that tackling in the secondary is a critical trait that will be prioritized during spring practices. He outlined three key skills every defender needs: the ability to cover, tackle, and play the ball.
With player safety being a significant concern within the last decade, Butler has made it clear that instilling physicality while maintaining safety is a delicate balance. “You have to practice tackling bodies,” Butler states, emphasizing the need for real-time practice to improve this vital skill.

We will cover these topics as well as Transfer Portal news. Tune in to discuss all things Nebraska football and support our Cornhusker team. As always, GBR!
