Joe_5700 Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 First the shirtless photo with the OLine and now this. Somebody needs to tell Martinez that he doesn't have to say yes to every photo op. Then his leadership will be questioned...these pictures also give us a good chance to evaluate the progress of his throwing motion. 2 Quote Link to comment
The King Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 Bo says the youth might make mistakes but it better be with them going 100mph (or 110mph - don't recall exactly what he said).. Says that going up against the O has been beneficial for our defense.. Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 As I said earlier, LB was a concern for Bo. Bo says he's seen a big jump over the last couple weeks of practice...not as much of a concern now.. Courtney Love probably gonna redshirt... Eric Olson @ericolson6452m T. Newby, Collins, Maurice, Gregory, Gerry, Cethan Carter all new faces who likely be on field Saturday, Pelini says. #Huskers hmmmm...... No mention of Adam Taylor. Caught my eye as well. But judging from other comments over the last week he doesn't seem to be working into the mix very quickly. I expect him to play. This is the first comment that I've seen him not mentioned. Seems like a couple quotes from Beck over the last week kind of left him out as well. I'd have to find them. Not saying he won't play, just maybe not as much in the mix as I expected.

GSG Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 Samuel McKewon @swmckewonOWH 1m Corey Cooper was asked which positions on the 2013 D are faster than 2012 version.

Adam Taylor is believed to be in that mix, as well, to burn his redshirt. Look for freshman linebacker Courtney Love to redshirt, mostly because he missed so much camp due to a hamstring injury. Pelini said Love will be a top player down the road. Quote Link to comment

He thinks the 2013 unit will be faster than the 2012 bunch, as well. Which positions? “All of them,” Cooper said. “The depth chart is athletic from the front end to the back end.” Quote Link to comment
Landlord Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 Bo's press conference bits were a breath of fresh air. He seems to be enjoying himself, his team and where they're at. Quote Link to comment

I see some good signs from his behavior that have led me to believe that he is "pleased" with the team. I hope this bodes well for the season. Quote Link to comment

This would be a reversal of 2011 when Bo Pelini’s brother, Carl Pelini, handed out 20 Blackshirts in early November after the Huskers beat Michigan State. NU promptly lost to Northwestern one week later. More defenders means fewer Blackshirts? That would make some happy but I'm missing the logic. Quote Link to comment

I think the mindset is that Blackshirts will only go to the guys that will start and be on the field almost every time regardless of formation - so the guys that are in more "specialty" roles probably wouldn't get any.

But I thought having a lot of guys that play was the reason for giving out more than 11 Blackshirts. Unless by so many he's talking 20+ so they're going to cut it back to just 11 or so. But the wording of that just didn't make any sense. Quote Link to comment

Unless by so many he's talking 20+ so they're going to cut it back to just 11 or so. But the wording of that just didn't make any sense. That was the reason we gave out more in the past. Notice the key bolded word: Because Nebraska will play so many defenders, look for fewer Blackshirts to be handed out — presuming they’re earned at some point during the year — Pelini said. This would be a reversal of 2011 Quote Link to comment
