It has been an interesting road since the announcement was first made in June that Nebraska would be joining the Big Ten (12). The day the Board of Regents met to vote on the decision, no one got anything done in the office. I don't know if it was because of me or if it was because we all knew something big was happening just across the street. We watched the vote live and everyone kept coming up to me and asking me what I thought about the possibility. While I am a Buckeye through and through, until the day that I die, I happen to live and work in Nebraska. More specifically I work for the University of Nebraska Lincoln.
Yep...it's true. And I think it is going to be tougher than ever before to stay the course in supporting the university I work for, on the athletic field of play. I for one am looking very forward to watching what happens as Nebraska joins the Big Ten and am excited about what they bring to the conference, athletically and also academically. It will also be nice to see the Buckeyes play without having to travel to Columbus.
The biggest question I have is, Are the Nebraska fans, that say they are 'nice' to everyone...ready for the Big Ten?
