husker_rob Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Real tough break, for sure. Feel bad for the guy. Quote Link to comment
papersun87 Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 awful for him, and not great for the defense, either. Quote Link to comment
Stumpy1 Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Charles is no longer in charge of the nickel position. This kid has been one of my favorites since he was recruited. Really sucks for him but it gives Cockrell and Kalu (who I think will surprise a lot of people) a chance to show what they have. Quote Link to comment
BaytownHusker Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 What about Mosely? Any chance he can get on the field? Quote Link to comment
Warrior10 Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 What about Mosely? Any chance he can get on the field? I believe yesterday Pap mentioned Kalu and Mosley as the ones working behind Cockrell now. Quote Link to comment
74Hunter Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 So it begins. Yeah, maybe I'm over exaggerating, but it seems like we've had a lot of really bad injuries to our best players in the last few years. More than years past, and more than most teams. Maybe I've lost perspective? Quote Link to comment
The Dude Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Not sure what Jackson has done to be considered "one of our best players". Quote Link to comment

Maybe I've lost perspective? I think you're over exaggerating it. Happens every year, to every team. We aren't much worse than anyone else. Last 4-5 years I can think of Moore leaving mid-season, Rome out for the year, Zaire Andreson out for year, Moss out for the year, Burkhead out for most of the season, Martinez hobbled half a season, Crick out half a season, Heard out for a season, Kinnie slowed by injury, Stein out for championship game, Allen w/ a knee, Caputo dinged, J Hardrick missing time, JTurner missing half a season, Marcel Jones. I'm sure there's a ton more. Wasn't Sirles and Qvale in this list too? I mean we have played the last 4 years with a perpetually hobbled starting QB, so injuries aren't something we should be too sensitive to. Quote Link to comment

Just the nature of the beast. However this is where, hopefully, our overall depth starts to help. Quote Link to comment
Touchdown Tommie Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 So it begins. Yeah, maybe I'm over exaggerating, but it seems like we've had a lot of really bad injuries to our best players in the last few years. More than years past, and more than most teams. Maybe I've lost perspective? Read the injury line in the NFL...it is part of the game, unfortunately! Seems more because we mostly pay attention to the Huskers only... Quote Link to comment
