Shawn Eichorst, a man rarely seen and even more rarely heard, answered a few questions about the Husker program with KMTV and OmahaSportsInsider.com Friday morning.
“Obviously, television loves the Huskers with our primetime schedule…”
The Husker athletic director seemed pleased with the national exposure the Huskers were given when schedules were released, and it’s hard to argue. Five games (Fresno State, Northwestern, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Ohio State) will be played in primetime under the lights in 2016.
Eichorst also spent time discussing the sellout streak, upgrades made to Memorial Stadium, the Big Ten Conference and much more.
Here is the Facebook live stream of Shawn Eichorst's exclusive interview with Joe Quinn and Nick Handley on The Drive on AM 590 ESPN Omaha from earlier today:
