From the heights of the 1990s to the long slog through the doldrums of college football, Husker fans have heard every explanation imaginable for why the turnaround takes time and why rebuilding Nebraska \u201cisn\u2019t as easy as people think.\u201d Two years ago, I tended to agree with that argument.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But in a world of Indiana football and Nebraska basketball, my sympathies have waned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No one\u2014absolutely no one\u2014picked Curt Cignetti or Fred Hoiberg to produce at the level they have in their respective sports. And yet, here we are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What Changed<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For decades, the scales were tipped heavily in favor of the traditional powers. Blueblood programs in dominant conferences had structural advantages that felt insurmountable. Alabama under Nick Saban looked untouchable, a standard mere mortals could admire but never reach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then came the transfer portal and NIL.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">College sports have been flipped on their head. Money is now the ultimate decider for many athletes when choosing where to play. Programs can no longer dabble on the edges of change. You either jump in boots and all\u2014or you fall behind, as Clemson\u2019s Dabo Swinney has shown. And by \u201cjump in,\u201d I mean spending aggressively, like you\u2019ve struck oil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rebuilds are no longer traditional three-year projects. They are supercharged every January, between January 2nd and January 16th. Miss that window, and you\u2019re chasing the pack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"embed-twitter\"><blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">College Football\u2019s Top NIL Earners\ud83d\udcb0 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/wltSzehcLr\">pic.twitter.com\/wltSzehcLr<\/a><\/p>&mdash; PFF College (@PFF_College) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/PFF_College\/status\/1787529508888678529?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">May 6, 2024<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/div>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Identity<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The portal can catapult a team into contention faster than a hiccup, but it can be just as destructive in the wrong hands. This is where Curt Cignetti and Fred Hoiberg separate themselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They know who they are\u2014and more importantly, what their teams are supposed to look like.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIdentity\u201d is a clich\u00e9, but it remains the pillar upon which every great program is built. Without it, talent accumulation becomes random, and cohesion never materializes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Take Matt Rhule, for example. He arrived at Nebraska preaching physical football\u2014running the ball for four quarters and controlling the clock. Then he hired a throwing-minded offensive coordinator and brought in a pocket-passing quarterback in Dylan Raiola. Nebraska football still lacks clarity on what it wants to be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You cannot reverse-engineer identity after you\u2019ve already built the roster without producing mediocrity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"embed-twitter\"><blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Four years ago Fred Hoiberg was on the hot seat. Now he\u2019s the favorite for National Coach of the Year and this could be the Nebraska team to finally win a NCAA tourney game. I went to Lincoln to find out how Hoiberg turned the program around: <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/lm2QuYSMOk\">https:\/\/t.co\/lm2QuYSMOk<\/a><\/p>&mdash; CJ Moore (@CJMooreHoops) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/CJMooreHoops\/status\/2016140194911596883?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">January 27, 2026<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/div>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Identify<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The second key in the Cignetti-Hoiberg comparison is the ability to identify the&nbsp;<em>right<\/em>&nbsp;talent to execute that identity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Cignetti was so confident in his vision that he brought players en masse from James Madison University to Indiana to make it happen. JMU is hardly a college football powerhouse, but that didn\u2019t matter. Those players fit his system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hoiberg did the same. He built Nebraska basketball around the style he wanted to play, targeting players who fit that mold rather than chasing recruiting stars. The results have been undeniable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is the real secret: it\u2019s not about how many stars a player has next to their name. It\u2019s about whether they fit what you\u2019re trying to build.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"embed-twitter\"><blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Curt Cignetti is the definition of a culture builder! <br>2 years after leaving James Madison, for one of the worst teams in college football, JMU has continued his success &amp; are in the CFP &amp; he is undefeated &amp; the #1 seed with 0 \u201c5 \u2b50\ufe0f\u201d players!<br><br>There is a new standard! <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/CBLf2sJaF8\">pic.twitter.com\/CBLf2sJaF8<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Devin GARDNER (@devingardnerXCI) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/devingardnerXCI\/status\/1997750367262589357?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">December 7, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/div>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The Nebraska Question<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Behind the scenes, Nebraska football has constructed a well-oiled machine.
