Spielman's status 'unclear'
* Nebraska senior-to-be JD Spielman, easily the team's leading receiver in 2019, hasn't been involved in those optional workouts and his status for the 2020 season remains uncertain.
He has been away from the team since early March because of a personal health matter.
"We continue to hope the best for him," Frost said. "We're anxious to have resolution on everything."
Might Spielman be on hand Monday, or sometime soon?
"I'd say it's unclear," Frost said.
The 5-foot-9, 180-pound Spielman, of Eden Prairie, Minnesota, last season logged 898 receiving yards (18.3 per catch), becoming the first player in school history to amass three 800-yard receiving seasons in a career. Granted, he's starred on teams that went 4-8, 4-8 and 5-7. What's more, he benefited in 2017 and 2018 from defenses keying on Stanley Morgan. Even so, Spielman's consistent excellence is undeniable.
