In 2024, Nebraska struggled a lot with special teams, from kicks being blocked to just inconsistent performances by the players, and Matt Rhule has enough of it. This past offseason, Rhule has completely revamped the Cornhuskers' special teams unit, which included the hiring of Mike Ekeler and bringing in Australian punter Archie Wilson.
Wilson comes in as a freshman this season after playing Australian Rules football for Haileybury College over in Australia. It seems like Wilson has made a home in Nebraska, but obviously, being this far from his true home has been tough. If there is one thing, though, he can hang his hat on, it has been his progress in fall camp.
