Popular Post Lil' Red Posted March 2, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted March 2, 2013 A few interesting twitter updates as the team begins spring practice today. @HuskerExtraBC Don't read much into it but 1s on D: Moss, Curry, K Williams, Anrkah; Brown, Anderson, Santos; Mitchell, H Jackson, Cooper, SJB, Evans. @HuskerExtraBC Evans was the nickel. And Anderson and Santos were the LBs who got most looks when the #Huskers were in nickel. @HuskerExtraBC Again, doesn't mean much at all yet, but O-line 1s today: LT Qvale, LG Cotton, C Pensick, RG Long, RT Sirles. A-Rod rotating in. @HuskerExtraBC Zaire Anderson now wearing No. 13. Was No. 8. And D.J. Singleton is now wearing No. 8. Got it? #Huskers ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- @swmckewonOWH CBs looked good, especially SJB and Evans. Santos at MLB right now. First day, no pads, can't make definitive statements yet.#huskers @swmckewonOWH Imani Cross had better burst and vision. He's faster. He's put in the work to get there. Jamal Turner looked quick, too. #huskers @swmckewonOWH Turner told me in interview last week that he played on partial meniscus tear at end of last yr. Got it scoped in Jan. Looked sharp today. @swmckewonOWH A. Green out for spring after shoulder surgery. Randle out, too. Throw in youth, recruits an I don't think 11 on D is remotely settled. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- @HuskerExtraSip #Huskers CB Andrew Green, a starter in 2012, is sidelined for the entire spring. We'll find out injury on Monday. #firstspringpractice @HuskerExtraSip Bo Pelini made it clear he'll spend most of his coaching time on the defensive side. Makes sense. Young players. His area of expertise. 10 Quote Link to comment

huskerhandy35 Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 Although I should know this already and am embarrassed to even ask, I never did catch the reason why spring practice is starting so early this year? Can anyone fill me in? Is it what the coaches wanted or something forced on them for some reason? Quote Link to comment
nebraskafaninwi Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 It fits in perfectly with the ACT and ability to get recruits to the spring game. No other major program in the B1G has a spring game the same day and only a couple of other big name programs nationally have their spring game the same day. A good number of programs have their spring game on the day of the ACT exam. Since players need to fly here instead of filling up the car of gas and making a 100 to 300 mile drive, they need to time things to get here. Quote Link to comment

Can anyone fill me in? Is it what the coaches wanted or something forced on them for some reason? To have the spring game before the ACT tests, for recruiting. We'll also be the only Big Ten SG on the 6th, so we get the BTN to ourselves. Quote Link to comment
corncraze Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 I find it surprising CJax or J. Rose not starting after hearing what everyone else has said about them. Still extremely early though. Quote Link to comment

Can anyone fill me in? Is it what the coaches wanted or something forced on them for some reason? Pelini mentioned last year that he liked sandwiching spring practices around spring break because it gives the coaching staff a chance to review practice film during that week off. That way they can see who is making progress and what areas need to be addressed when the players come back for the second half of spring practice. 2 Quote Link to comment
Creighton Duke Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 As much as last year was sorta an indication, not seeing Seisay's name out there is a dissapointment. Guess we only really hit on the JUCO LBs (Williams, David, possibly Anderson) Quote Link to comment
JohnInKC Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 Seisay was coming along i thought very well until he was hurt a few games in. i also think he was hurt before that as well. Its hard to come back on an ankle injury. Quote Link to comment

Guess we only really hit on the JUCO LBs (Williams, David, possibly Anderson) The DEs and DBs we've gotten recently haven't helped out a lot. We can't even get DTs to sign on. Quote Link to comment
MLB 51 Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 Surprised that VV isn't on the 1st team list. Quote Link to comment
Saunders Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 I wouldn't read too much into the depth chart on the first day of spring... Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 Surprised that VV isn't on the 1st team list. That was my biggest surprise as well. Seemed like mostly the older players go the nod so perhaps that has something to do with it. Quote Link to comment

Was thinking the same thing, but Curry is with the ones. saunders45 has a valid point though. 1st day of practice. No reason to think this won't change when they put the pads on.

Honestly think that once the season starts, it's gonna be Curry one series, VV the next, and on and on... Quote Link to comment
