New Strength & Conditioning Staff

Elite athletes want to be pushed to get better, get stronger, and get faster.  It's part of what makes them elite.  If Haussman wasn't getting that at NU under Duval and the prior staff, that is concerning.  I wouldn't be surprised if other former players felt that way, as well.
I am optimistic that the guys on the team under Frost and Co will be amazed at the professionalism under Rhule. We "looked" worse under Duval.  Never saw the physicality, toughness and endurance I had anticipated initially.

 
On the other hand, someone like me will literally leave the gym if I have to wait for a bench to open up.
Bypass the community gym shower while you are at it....

Or that's just something that players say when the approach is different.  Darrion Daniels said similar things when he transferred here from Oklahoma State.

In the real world, there are many worthless things HR does.  I’d rank “exit interviews” right near the top.

 
I remember thinking "huh" on this comment from Stephon Wynn last summer comparing Alabama to Nebraska S&C

"It's college football. Everybody works out hard. I came from Alabama. I'm pretty sure we worked out hard," Wynn said. "It's just a different type of stuff we did here that we didn't do there. Not saying it was harder, easier, nothing like that. Just different movements ... working on different parts of the body, different than I was used to being trained. But once I got used to it, it got normal"

It wasn't the normal "best shape of my life" or "we're working harder than ever".  It was like he was being charitable saying Nebraska was "different".

Rachel: Come on Ross! You said you wanted to talk about it, let’s talk about it!! How was she?

Ross: She was...

[Cut to Monica's bedroom]

Joey: Awful! Horrible!

Chandler: She was not good. Not good.

Joey: She was nothing compared to you.

[Cut to Living Room]

Ross: She, she was different.

[Cut to Monica's bedroom]

Joey: Ewwwww!

Chandler: Uh-oh.

[Cut to Living Room]

Rachel: Good different?

Ross: Nobody likes change.

When Duval had them maxing out preacher curls and calf raises, some flags should've gone up.

 
Not sure the best place to put this, but I just talked to someone that works where Ochaun is working out preparing for the draft. He said he is making gains way faster compared to everyone else and the trainers are laughing about how bad our strength staff must have been. I'm sure that's common in a lot of industries to call out the previous work as shoddy but a lot of smoke that the previous staff was meh.
