J_2_THA_BONE Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 Sucks to hear he is injured, hopefully he has a speedy recovery. Time for somebody to step up at RB! Quote Link to comment
zoogs Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 Wow, bad, bad news. Rex showed a ton of flash this year. Won't be back now until Colorado? Raw deal. Let's see some Ward, Mendoza, Jones, Okafor stepping up? I think we might see us taking a few licks now though. Quote Link to comment

Better play all of them, Helu won't make it all the way with all the carries, the others have to play. Quote Link to comment
mitch7 Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 I don't not think having a backup running back out will result in us taking a few "lickings" now Quote Link to comment
carlfense Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 I don't not think having a backup running back out will result in us taking a few "lickings" now I don't know about "lickings" but it's certainly not good. I saw Helu and Burkhead as pretty interchangeable . . . which is huge. Burkhead might have been even better in short yardage situations. Especially with Castille gone . . . this IS concerning.

I agree, there was a reason he was #2............. Quote Link to comment
typ3kal Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 This just in... Rex's replacement has already been found.. supposedly he is a 6'4 Freshman who already had his Redshirt pulled and a player who sounds like the all state insurance guy. And the legend grows Quote Link to comment

HuskerBCS Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 We'll be fine...It'll be nice to see Lester Ward actually get some playing time...he COULD be the future. Quote Link to comment

mitch7 Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 Huskersillustrated just updated their website and its about todays practice but it does not say anything about injuries just talks about not getting the blackshirts....... Quote Link to comment
Jeremy Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 Also, as far as I know, Helu's condition is not clear either, is it? I was waiting for the injury bug to bite like it did last year, and sure enough... Quote Link to comment
