NUance Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 What Huskers do you think will be most improved this year? =========================================== Caleb Lightbourn. I think he is gonna show a bunch of improvement. He got thrust into a starting role last year due to Foltz's tragic death. Lightbourn has a huge leg--when he connects. But he was inconsistent last year. I don't think we'll see anymore shanks this year, now that he has a year of PT and spring training under his belt. It wouldn't surprise me to see him up towards the top of the Big 10 in punting stats this season. Tanner Farmer. He was good last year. But he played hurt much of the season. We haven't seen him at his full potential yet. He can push people around--maybe the strongest guy on the team. If he can stay healthy this season I think he'll be pancake makin' machine come this this fall. 1 Quote Link to comment
seaofred92 Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 Eric Lee. I think he ultimately unseats Lamar Jackson at CB. 1 Quote Link to comment
307husker Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 QB 1, whichever Husker fills this role, I expect/hope there will be a big improvement in QB play this year. Quote Link to comment
NUinID Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 DPE is going to have a monster year. Just like his freshman year on punt returns but catching about 30 more passes. Quote Link to comment
BIG ERN Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 I think a healthy Jerald Foster will help this line take a good step forward Quote Link to comment
Roger Dorn Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 Tre Bryant. Think he will take over that all purpose back role for this offense. Quote Link to comment
swmohusker Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 Davis Twins are set up for monster years. 1 Quote Link to comment
Redux Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 I was banking on Stanley Morgan having a monster season. And at least one of the David twins. Quote Link to comment
MyBloodIsRed16 Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 I feel like speilman is gonna have a big year Quote Link to comment
Roll Skers Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 Luke Gifford and Chris Jones will be beasts IMO Quote Link to comment
Huskerzoo Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 I think I'm way too optimistic about this season right now. Everywhere I look I see upside right now which is problematic. (Is there a position group we think is going to be worse than last year...maybe RB but Tre looks good?) I'll throw this out though. Knevel. It sounds like he played hurt last year. I also think the line as a position group is going to be a lot better which will help him a lot as he won't be distracted. It sounds like he was good enough in the Spring to move Conrad to center (I think, I might be remembering wrong). He's always seemed a step slow, but I think he'll be good this year. 1 Quote Link to comment
Hunter94 Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 i think the passing game will open up the run a bit........i expect to see us pass on first down, a lot........QB. Quote Link to comment
Nebfanatic Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 Eric Lee. I think he ultimately unseats Lamar Jackson at CB. 2nd, love Lee's game Quote Link to comment
suh_fan93 Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 Could be anyone but with the position change my eyes will be on Kalu. Right now I'm in the camp of he should have stayed at cb but maybe it will all work out. Quote Link to comment
