Scarlet Overkill Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 At least able to work out with the team. Quote Nebraska running back Tre Bryant is nearing a return from a knee injury that cost him his sophomore season and participating with the team during summer workouts. “I’ve been full-go for a month basically,” Bryant told Hail Varsity. “I’m excited. Hopefully, it just stays in the condition it’s in and I can keep moving forward.” Bryant, now a junior, started at running back for the Huskers last season, tallying 299 yards and two scores in just a game-and-a-half of work. He left during the second half of Nebraska’s Sept. 9 game against Oregon with a right knee injury and never returned. In October of last season, Bryant had “corrective” knee surgery to address the issue in the hopes that he would be ready to go for the spring, but neither a definite timetable for recovery nor a specific injury diagnosis was offered. https://hailvarsity.com/s/4006/huskers-rb-tre-bryant-is-back-for-summer-workouts 4 Quote Link to comment
NUance Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 Nice to seem Tre in the mix again. There's gonna be quite a competition come fall camp. IB is pretty deep right now with several guys all at about the same skill level. 2 Quote Link to comment
MichiganDad3 Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 With more depth this year, and the way Frost likes to spread the ball around, Tre should be able to contribute without have to carry a heavy load. Hopefully he can stay healthy. 1 Quote Link to comment
Dagerow Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 Very happy about this. Even if he only gets 10 carries a game (so that he can stay healthy), it will make a big difference. Not only is he very good, his skill set fits the offense perfectly. 1 Quote Link to comment
Caliborn72 Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 Very good news. I think we have names on a list at this point, I wouldn’t call our RB group deep yet. Bryant being full-go would help to change that. 2 Quote Link to comment
ScottyIce Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 One more sign that Wilbon could be moving on if he can grad transfer Quote Link to comment
Redux Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 If you believe the pre season magazines, Tre Bryant is a lock to start all year. 1 Quote Link to comment
huskered17 Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 We have some experience in the r/b position, and maybe some good ones coming in, but Bryant is a game changer. I don't think we have anyone else like him. What I've read on here says, he can't hold up with those knees. Hope that's not the case. I'm not sure how much he will play each game, but I think the coaches will be very careful with the amount of carries he gets this year. jmo GBR!!! Quote Link to comment
ZRod Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 Glad he is making a come back. Absolutely the worst case mismanagement by the former regime. I'll just be glad if it doesn't cost him his career, because he's got a lot of talent. 1 Quote Link to comment

Yes, with his old-man knees he won't hold-up to more than like 10 touches a game but those touches can be difference-makers if we can keep him going a whole season. Quote Link to comment

famoustitles Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 Good to see Bryant practicing. I’m no dr but I can’t imagine the angle of his knee doesn’t play a role in the chronic inflammation “old man knees” Quote Link to comment
