We need to be talking about Ross Dzuris

Defensive end Ross Dzuris earns first playing time for Huskers.

 

 

Gangwish was good for Ross, Bob said. Ross “was always a great technician and a real smart kid,” his father said. “But what he took from Jack was a little orneriness.”

 

...given Gangwish’s injury and Nebraska’s need for Dzuris to produce in games, he’ll be known now for more than facial hair. He’s a key cog in the Huskers’ defensive line, and he’s won over his dad, the coach.

The elder Dzuris coached the defensive line at UNO from 1997 to 1999 and was head coach at Midland University from 2000 to 2006. He coached a few players at UNO who later logged time in the NFL. So he watched Saturday’s game — a 33-28 loss to BYU — as a coach, and he paid attention to how Ross managed his assignments from play to play. He did well there, Bob said.

 

Coach's kid. That explains why he's a smart player.

 

 

He buys the wax online.

 

Online mustache wax. That explains how he keeps it so neatly groomed.
