Husker_Power Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 was reading an article today in the OWH about Paul Meyers and his readiness to takeover as Athletic Director when I came across this: He came up with the idea for the Husker Athletic Fund lunches. At the first lunch, last Wednesday, Meyers appeared on a video and introduced the next big thing: the idea of a $5 million to $10 million sports institute, as part of the East Stadium.

I did more research on http://www.Huskers.com, and found this: Meyers said Nebraska launched strength and conditioning training as we know it at the collegiate and professional level when Tom Osborne and Boyd Epley convinced Bob Devaney of the need. "Think about what we can do," Meyers said. "We will have a concussion study center and use software to research and determine the right baselines for athletes. It's something no one else has tried."

Husker_Power Posted August 8, 2011 Author Share Posted August 8, 2011 I wonder if this is gonna be like "Sports Science", i.e. teaching certain techniques to certain individuals. Some things work better for some people than others. Quote Link to comment
