Or we turn to Cooper Jewett. There is still Kwinten Ives. And it seems to me that the one fumble was probably Johnson's fault. But not in the same category of fumbles. He publicly called out Grant for fumbling. Then had him in the game when all we were trying to do was run the clock out and guess what happened. And he was still talking about Sims being the guy (may still be) even with the fumbles he's had. I'm not saying I disagree with what he's done (except for Grant in the Minnesota game). But I think it's fair to point out that his actions haven't exactly backed up the rhetoric on this particular issue. 1 Quote Link to comment

soup Posted October 10, 2023 Share Posted October 10, 2023 To me the fumbling thing comes down to are the fumbles because of an interaction between players, or a fumble that happens on their own. Grant's fumbles are on his own. All of the QB fumbles have been interactions between RB and or Center. (A teamwork type of issues) Those are issues that should be a lot easier to fix. Fumbling because you aren't carrying the rock correctly is a bit harder. And in my mind that is what Rhule is trying to express, but not doing a very good job of it. 1 Quote Link to comment
Husker in WI Posted October 10, 2023 Share Posted October 10, 2023 Jeremiah Charles and Brice Turner are both working at Corner at the moment - based on the 2023 and 2024 classes, there are going to be a lot of guys getting looks on both sides of the ball until they settle into a position. Cooper had mentioned he was trying to get Charles in his room a few weeks ago. 1 Quote Link to comment

That actually may be better for NU, considering our weak o-line. 1 Quote Link to comment

Mavric Posted October 10, 2023 Author Share Posted October 10, 2023 I still get the feeling Rhule wants to go back to Sims. 1 Quote Link to comment
