[Husker] Nebraska was close to having it's own network?

[Skylar Dodds]

I had heard about it several times from several different people.  I don't
know if it was ever published in a paper or anything tho.

In referring to having to give up TV rights for away games, Tom Osborne had
this comment:

"We were probably as far along as Texas at one point in terms of starting
our own network," said Osborne. "We were planning to start it this summer.
We obviously had to cancel that plan."

Had anyone heard that the Huskers were looking to start their own network?

This article also has very nice detail into the logistics of switching
conferences.
