2022 Fall Camp Notes - Receivers and Tight Ends

MJ on Omar:

“I was happy Omar showed up two days in a row,” Joseph said of senior Omar Manning. “They’re all trying to step up and they’re all trying to show leadership.”

Asked to clarify his comment on Manning, Joseph said, “He practiced. He practiced two days in a row.”

Joseph wants his receivers to be able to play through minor injuries, or “nicks” as he calls them.

“Here at Nebraska, we’re not going to play you (if you’re) hurt,” the coach said. “But if you’ve got a nick, we’re going to ask you to try and go through it. He’s learning how to do that.”

Speaks volumes. 

Not just about "player X".... but perhaps, the noticeable vibes across the team.   :dunno   

 
Also sounds like Mickey doesn't think Crawford was hurt badly enough to be missing a practice.  Joseph sounded frustrated when asked about Crawford.


I took it as it being a fairly serious injury since he referred it to HCSF who seems to control all the injury reports himself. Callahan mentioned in his podcast Crawford was hurt in the Saturday scrimmage. MJ sounded more frustrated about Manning missing practices.
