I would like to read a "Day in the Life Of" piece or something detailing their daily film studies and workouts.

Yeah I'd really like to do something like this, and I wouldn't be the first. But the availability of players is well...limited. The only people who go near the film room are athletes and coaches, unfortunately

That is understandable. I always emjoyed the specials on ESPN they did with Alabama and a few other teams I can't remember. It was cool seeing Richardson beasting in the weight room. I think it showed them, or Arkansas, going to hand out pizzas to the fans tailgating the night before.

 
I think it would be nice to educate the fans on how the game has changed since the 90's. A lot of husker fans are at an age where they were in their teens then and national championship runs were the normal. It would be good to get perspective on how difficult it is now to win. I know the process has stayed the same to a degree but things like the need to recruit earlier. How states with year round football have made some players more ready to play. How kids are different and the stars expect some things to be given to them because society has changed etc. Also the offenses and defenses are more difficult now. I remember how it was really thinking out of the box to recruit speed guys and we moved DBs to LBs and LBs to rush ends back in the day when no one else did. We were also doing year round football when other weren't. I was listening to Rich Rod on XM last week during one of my travels and he was shocked that when he got to his team now that they were take 2, 3 4 months off a year and still expecting to be competitive when they needed to be training year round.

 
Less fluff more substance.

I don't care what a player ate for breakfast or what their lucky socks look like... I care why they are doing what they do on the field and how it affects the player next to them and the play they are involved in. I want football knowledge not human interest filler.

 
I think a piece on JP and being the DC now would be interesting, get some insight into what he thinks about defending the different styles of offense the Big Ten brings.

 
i think it would be cool to talk to some of the redshirt seniors that are going on thier 5th year at NU and haave them describe how the culture has chnaged in the last 5 years and compare what it was like then to now

 
I would like to know what kind of supplements the players take so I can get some of whatever they take. They have the ability to pack on a lot of muscle in a short amount of time, and I would love to know what type of supplements allow them to do that.

 
Follow Bo around for a week and provide an hour by hour summary of everything he does. I can't figure when he sees his family, if he does.

 
A week or two ago someone from the LJS or OWH did a fantastic story on Rex growing up, his family and what has made him who he is today. It was a great read. Sorry I can't find a link to it right now.

Anyway, I would love to read more stories like that about players and coaches.

Find interesting stories about the people we talk about and watch on Saturdays that otherwise we would never know.

They have found that protein spread throughout the day puts on 20% more muscle than the same amount in one shot before or after workouts. Also stay away from whey, new research shows it is absorbed to fast and causes an insulin reaction and casein (milk protein) is also

implicated by a Cornell researcher in cancer watch Forks Over Knives for the interview. It's more important to put on good muscle than just mass.

The thing about whey doesn't surprise me at all. There almost always ends up being something wrong with food that's gone through that much change.
