Watch now: Hundreds show up for Josh fight in northwest Lincoln

Lincoln 4-year-old Joshua Vinson Jr. (top right), is lifted into the air after being declared the ultimate Josh on Saturday in Air Park. What started as a mid-pandemic joke took on life Saturday, as a mixed bag of individuals sharing the name Josh came to battle it out with pool noodles. The winner was to be declared the rightful owner of the name Josh.

KENNETH FERRIERA, Journal Star

Josh Swain, a college student from Arizona, challenged other Josh Swains on Facebook to a duel over their name, randomly picking Lincoln as the battleground. On Saturday, hundreds gathered in Air Park to watch them fight with pool noodles.

Steven M. Sipple: Judging Frost harshly for McCaffrey decision? Be careful with that trap

Steven M. Sipple, Parker Gabriel and Chris Basnett discuss the Journal Star's wide-ranging Friday interview with Nebraska football coach Scott Frost, what's ahead for the Huskers this offseason and the latest on the Nebraska men's basketball team's lengthy pause in team activities due to a COVID-19 outbreak. 

There'll be a variety of reactions to quarterback Luke McCaffrey's decision to enter the transfer portal. 

Some Husker fans will use it as further evidence that Scott Frost's program is spiraling quickly.

'Little Josh' dubbed winner of the Battle of the Joshes; community also benefits from event

Josh Swain (left) declares Lincoln 4-year-old Joshua Vinson Jr. the ultimate Josh after Saturday's "Battle of the Joshes"  in Air Park. What started as a mid-pandemic joke came to life, as a mixed bag of individuals sharing the name Josh came to battle it out with pool noodles.

KENNETH FERRIERA, Journal Star

With one final swing of his red pool noodle, Josh Vinson Jr. — nicknamed “Little Josh” by the crowd — won the inaugural Battle of the Joshes on Saturday.

Hundreds of people — some from as far away as Washington and New Jersey — circled around him as a Burger King crown too big for the 4-year-old’s head fell to his shoulders. His dad — Josh Vinson Sr. — shouted “lift him up,” and a man proudly lifted Little Josh on his shoulders. The crowd cheered as Little Josh showed his championship belt.

Calling all Josh Swains: The battle for your name is taking place right here in Lincoln

Josh Swain from Tucson, Arizona, is the Josh Swain, or so he claims.

Steven M. Sipple: McCaffrey's decision sparks serious discussions; and Georgia eyed Fisher

Things I know, and things I think I know (emergency midweek edition): 

Well, it seems a lot of people think Nebraska football is in a state of emergency in the wake of another losing season followed by a rash of players jumping into the transfer portal.

Steven M. Sipple: The sad story of the end of Frost's tenure at NU may now be writing itself

Scott Frost addressed the media after the Huskers' loss to Purdue.

Nebraska athletic director Trev Alberts missed the Huskers' football game Saturday to attend his son's wedding.

If you're a Nebraska fan, you might say he didn't miss much. After all, the Huskers played a generally awful second half and dropped a 28-23 decision to a good-not-great Purdue team before 85,902 spectators at Memorial Stadium. NU finished minus-4 in the turnover category, and the Boilermakers held the ball for 38 minutes, 38 seconds, running 86 plays to the Huskers' 58.
