Handicapping the Spring Game
<font size="2">The Nebraska Athletic Department has released the rosters for the Spring game. <font size="2">Based on what we see, which team has the edge?</font></font>
Huskers Loading Up on Linebackers?
There's been a fair amount of speculation about whether Nebraska would need to abandon the peso defense to handle some of the power rushing attacks in the Big Ten. If the Huskers were to go to a more traditional 4-3 defensive front, then perhaps the additional linebacker could help stuff …
Updated Roster Provides New Information
Fans never get to know everything that people in the Athletic Department do, and that's probably a good thing. But from time to time, they tip their hand a bit and provide some new insights on the team. When Huskers.com updated their bios and roster, it gave some clues about some …
Players You Won't See Saturday
A team usually likes to make it through spring practice without having to worry about injury, but that's usually just a pipe dream. The roster for this weekend will probably be published today or tomorrow with a full list of who's wearing red and who's wearing white, but it probably won't …
Spring Themes: New Crop of Linebackers
With Nebraska's spring practices just days away, we're addressing the themes of this spring - the big picture items to be keeping track of as you sift through daily practice updates. I already addressed the burgeoning quarterback battle. Now, it is time to turn our attention to the defense. Everybody knows …
Red-Colored Glasses
Every team in Division I has reason to doubt their team's chances at a national championship. Even a team like Florida this past year with so much returning from a national championship squad came up short. But sometimes as a fan, you want to tune out those doubts. You want to …
Offseason Roster Shakeups Begin
The good news was that Nebraska landed a highly rated junior college recruit at midyear in former LSU commit Jermarcus Hardrick. While a redshirt is possible, the rumblings seem to be that they will preparing him to start in 2010. For those who blame the 2009 offensive woes on the o-line, …
Implications of Injury Updates
Among the most meaningful components of Big 12 Media Days are the injury updates. Three in particular stand out for Nebraska. Redshirt freshman quarterback Kody Spano is apparently 100% healthy after some knee issues that caused him to miss time in the spring. Offensive tackle Jaivorio Burkes will miss the 2009 …
Linebacking Losses Won’t Leave Huskers Lacking
A year ago at this time, Nebraska had some major question marks surrounding the linebackers. With only one player with starting experience in the mix and not many more with playing experience, the Huskers had to find some linebackers for the 2008 campaign. This season, the Huskers may again lose up …
Position Breakdowns: Linebackers
Outlook: The Huskers were positively gutted by graduation at linebacker. Given the way the defense performed in 2007, they may not be all bad. Nebraska must find starters and capable backups at every spot. Still, a transfer by Kyle Moore (brother of former standout Husker defensive end Jay Moore) suggests that …
The Class of 2008 Comes Together
The Huskers recruiting class of 2008 might be remembered as much for whom it didn't include as for who it did. Among the decommits were five-star quarterback Blaine Gabbert, four-star running back Jonas Gray, four-star offensive linemen Trevor Robinson, Bryce Givens, and Dan Hoch, four-star linebacker Shaun Mohler, and five-star defensive …
On Talent
The assessment, evaluation, and value of talent is one of the great enigmas in college football. It is very difficult to win big without it, though having it does not necessarily assure wins, either. It is a qualifying factor, a prerequisite with other elements required. Talent is made all the more …
Another Weekend Update
It appears only one Prater made a visit this past weekend. Shaun Prater made the visit but Shane did not. Shane is no longer listed as a “softâ€? commitment to Iowa and Shaun is listed as “softâ€? by Rivals.com but not Scout.com. It would be easy to think the brothers are …
Alonzo Whaley Commits
The Huskers landed another verbal commitment this weekend, this time from linebacker prospect Alonzo Whaley. Considering NU's great need at the position, it's a welcome commitment even if he's not a Parade All-American.
Recruiting Update
Now that the Huskers have a head coach, it will become easier to understand which recruits still want to come to Lincoln and which will look elsewhere. Sure, there's a ton of re-recruiting to be done of the kids who had committed to Bill Callahan, but with a lot less uncertainty …
