floridacorn Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 I noticed the receivers doing a drill today known as settle up and noose. It's an everyday drill air raid teams use to train running mesh vs zone & it's kind of exclusive to that system. I'm not implying NU's on the verge of becoming an air raid offense, but between this and the Holgorsen visit, I expect to see them implement some concepts from that offensive. 1 Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted April 19 Author Share Posted April 19 Obviously not at Husker practice but here's what Carter Nelson has done in track this year: 11.03 100 meters 22.28 200 meters 54.85 400 meters 50-6 shot put 188-1 discus (top 20 nationally) 6-2 high jump 13-6 pole vault 22-7 long jump (leads class C) The 400 and high jump aren't that impressive. As a former 7-0 high jumper, I'm sure the weight he has put on has limited his high jumping. I would guess he's mostly just jumped high enough to win. But those are some pretty good marks across over half of the available individual events. And the sprint marks are pretty impressive for a guy that size. 1 Quote Link to comment

Is Nelson still in HS or is this on the Nebraska track team? Quote Link to comment

You can't because it is not the coaches doing it. It is other players and then handlers. It happens in the NFL and NBA all the time too. The NBA has perfected it and the league just doesn't care. 3 Quote Link to comment

I can't honestly believe anyone still thinks the NCAA can do anything. Thanks for the laugh! Seriously, the big leagues can handle things because of collective bargaining and a commissioner. There is zero hope of containing anything with the current setup in college sports. Quote Link to comment

NCAA is just HOPING and PRAYING that they can survive, they are not needed at all. The idea that their is this "governing body" over college sports is insane. They are done and they know it, they just don't know when their "end" is as of yet. 2 Quote Link to comment
