The back-to-back championships in 1994 and 1995 prompted more fans
and media to take notice of the football program at the University
of Nebraska-Lincoln. For Tom Osborne, then head coach of the
Nebraska Cornhuskers, the added scrutiny was at times flattering
and at other times problematic. On Solid Ground was written for the
fan seeking greater insight into the Nebraska football program
behind the scenes during the 1990s. Osborne presents not only an
accurate portrayal of what happened to the team during those
championship seasons but also his personal philosophy of life.
While recounting how many of his players overcame great odds to
achieve what they did both on and off the field, Osborne also
straightforwardly addresses the heavy criticism the program
received for the misbehavior of a few team members. On Solid Ground
also considers the tension between those who believe an athlete in
trouble should be made an example of and those who maintain that a
structured environment is the best way to improve human behavior.
