  1. I think Maurice might be the perfect Duck-R because that guy can run some routes. He is going to put a lot of stress on defenses running and receiving. And can we get new terminology? Maybe Husk-R , instead of referring to some other team's mascot. Wilbon did average 5.4 yards per carry, so I think the jury is still out on him. Bradley was a little disappointing in that he didn't capitalize on his opportunities, but there could be a multitude of circumstances when you only see 1 practice. Austin Rose again capitalized on his limited opportunities in a spring game. I wonder what the deal is with him that he never moved up the depth chart.
  2. Love the little bit of insight into the coaching. Gives the fans a little something something and good for recruits to see the expertise on staff.
  3. Success?????? 5 tackles in 6 games??????? I also believe he was playing DB at Ole Miss.
  4. I blame Diaco and his exact measurables per position. It happened at ND also.
  5. Ugh. Tainted by a Texas Longhorn fan narrating.
  6. I don't know if I agree with the bolded as I thought they both looked fairly decent usually making quick and correct decisions. I think people are overreacting to a couple of nifty runs against what was made up of an amalgamation of 2nd through 4th+ string players from a team that went 4-8 last year and they couldn't contact the QB. There were numerous plays that demonstrated that Gebbia had command of the zone read also. For example, I can remember a couple of TE screens where the OLB/DE was crashing hard and he made quick reads (RB first option, QB run second option, and then TE pass third option) to get the ball out quick to the TE, a zone run play where he kept the ball in Bell's belly to the last second sucking the defense in before finally letting go and letting Bell take it for a 13 yard run and Gebbia also had a good keep for 7 yards on zone read near the goal line that they called down at the 3 that he may or may not have got in for the TD if it was live. But, then again all of those plays were against the same defense that couldn't contact the QB, so what does any of this tell us? Pretty much nothing.
  7. It's hard to say because the defenders are not bearing down on them as fast as they would be if they were trying to tackle them. I would say they are probably just going at about 75% speed to try and make the touch.
  8. You better quit being a fan if 4 is against your liking.
  9. A definite positive to the level of players that are on the roster.
  10. The good thing is I think we will blow Akron the F out like we should, after that, there are no guarantees.
  11. We'll lose one that most think we shouldn't (probably one of the first three) and we'll win one no one expects (I really hope it is tOSU).
  12. Listen to the professionals. This isn't instant coffee. 6-6 will be a good year providing a foundation to build off of for the future.
  13. Just watched their BTN interviews. WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! These guys are some of the most mature young men under 20 years old I've ever seen/met.
  14. Basically a whole B1G show about Nebraska. You can't buy this kind of press.
  15. DiNardo said our practices looked like B1G practices. Way better than anything he said last 3 years.
  16. There are few people that are true leaders. Moos and Frost are two of them.
  17. Yes. I know what you mean. My point was that I think on defense we can put a front seven out there with our top 2 without much if any drop off. Definitely need more depth/"real" nose guards though. I won't be looking for our defense to be top 20 next year.
  18. I doubt there is much separation from the 1s and 2s. The only difference would be the positions we are thin at CB, WR, OL, where a little more depth on one side or the other would make a big difference. Edit: True OLB also.
  19. Seriously though, I know this is a spring game, but I don't know when we've had this much quality depth at QB. They are all making quick and fairly accurate decisions.
