"And keep in mind that in Banker's scheme, the middle linebacker is asked to run free, to make plays sideline-to-sideline, meaning speed and athleticism is more important than it was in Pelini's scheme."
Sure sounds good to me. Sounds like one of the best things about being a middle linebacker if you were going to play the position. I'm ready for the Huskers to produce the next Chris Borland, Max Burroughs, Ryan Shazier, etc. It's been awhile since Lavonte David was here. In other words, inside or outside, a stud linebacker. Tired of running backs of all sorts having career games against the blackshirts.
