In a heartfelt and stunning gesture, legendary former head coach Tom Osborne has gifted the Nebraska football program with two state-of-the-art luxury buses—a rolling symbol of the Cornhuskers’ storied legacy, team pride, and unwavering loyalty.
The custom buses, unveiled during a special ceremony on campus, are designed in bold Nebraska colors and emblazoned with championship emblems, player tributes, and inspirational quotes from Osborne’s iconic career. The gesture is not only a gift of comfort and utility, but a powerful message to players, fans, and alumni alike: Nebraska’s championship tradition is alive—and it rolls forward with pride.
“We built this,” Osborne said, standing before the buses. “Now we ride in something that reflects who we are—champions on and off the field.”
Osborne, who led Nebraska to three national championships during his legendary coaching tenure, remains a towering figure in Lincoln and across college football. His latest contribution reflects his continued commitment to supporting the program and inspiring future generations of Cornhuskers.
The buses, equipped with reclining seats, entertainment systems, Wi-Fi, and custom interior detailing, will be used for team travel, recruiting visits, and special events. Each feature was chosen with both luxury and legacy in mind, reminding current players of the rich tradition they represent.
Athletic Director Trev Alberts called the gift “deeply meaningful,” adding, “This is more than transportation—it’s a statement of pride, tradition, and excellence. It’s Coach Osborne, once again, showing us what it means to be a Cornhusker.”
As the team prepares for the upcoming season, they’ll now ride in style, comfort, and purpose—powered by a coach whose impact continues to steer the program both on the road and in spirit.
