A B1G Decision – Nebraska’s Move to the Big Ten, 10 Years Later
Informative article on Neb's move to the B1G. Gets into the transition which included different styles of play and regions of the country and how that led to recruiting strategy changes and losses in recruiting with the Big10's more physical play vs the wide open play in the Big12 needing more DB's and fewer linebackers. There were unfamiliar recruiting battlegrounds and the need to prepare for an entire new league schedule while those already in the league only had to prepare for one new team.
I had heard that Nebraska may be considering seeking different league membership, however NU admin. stated the SEC and B1G are on a different level than BigXII and I got the idea they feel they made the right decision and not just from a $ position.
