Brandon Vogel from Hail Varsity: Ameer Abdullah - No Question

I read this article in Hail Varsity. Glad he came back. Hope we have a great season to prove that he made the correct decision.

 
What a great article and feature on the entire family!

The notion that Nebraska landed Ameer because it was one of the only schools promising a shot at running back isn’t entirely accurate. Nebraska landed Ameer because it didn’t promise anything, actually.
Throughout the whole recruiting process, Bo Pelini was the only head coach to visit the Abdullah home.
“[bo] was very observant,” Kareem says, using the same word he used to describe his son at a young age. Ameer recalls that there was little small talk. Most importantly, Pelini didn’t promise anything.

I love his self-awareness and dedication. We will miss Ameer.

“Miami doesn’t care what you could’ve been doing tonight,” Muhammad says as the pair takes turns doing dips with a 10-pound kettle ball chained around their waists. Nebraska plays the Hurricanes in week three this season. Miami has its own highly regarded back, Duke Johnson. He’s 5-9, 195 pounds and wears No. 8, too. Gotta be better than him.

He also wants to be a more physical runner. He needs to fumble less. He gets tired too easily. Mostly, he doesn’t want to be known as a “speed back.”
