Spring Game - April 9th @ 1:00

[Decked]

Ahh, I just got home. Have I missed anything good? 

Nebraska is winning. Nebraska is also losing. Oh and Nelson is probably in the nightmares of Brant Banks 

 

[Hayseed]

DE’s look good. Tannor, Nelson and Butler are solid. 

Does the d look good or does the o still suck? Don’t think we’ll learn much about that today.

 

[Hayseed]

Purdy has an excellent touch on the ball, he's putting the ball on target and giving them the chance to be caught but D is playing well.

Purdy has looked better than I thought he would, however the complaint against him is he’s bad under pressure, which there isn’t any today.

there is nothing anyone can take away from this game.

Yes

Unfortunately the format etc makes having the ‘game’ almost a waste of a practice in some ways.  The guys benefit from running plays but without full speed, live and for real effort and intent on both sides of the ball, it’s impossible to learn much.  Fun for the guys in some ways maybe and fun is very important to never lose sight of.  
 

practice.  Practice.  More practice.  Defense seems well prepared and coached, as expected.  Offense is clearly, as expected, a work in progress.  I feel fairly positive and see hopeful signs.  2nd half will involve some hitting. Will see.

REALLY liking Whipple.  He's the real deal and am excited to see him work through these kids.

 

[Micheal]

Hoping to see more from Thompson. 

 

[The Scarlet Pimpernel]

From what I'm reading, it sounds like the primary concern is still the OL, as I expected.

 

[Hayseed]

I think Haarberg might be the #2 QB

 

[Decked]

That would’ve been a drop. Grimes needs to improve on that. That’s 2/3 drops. 

 

[HuskerInLostWages]

Wow that might be the worst extra point attempt I have ever seen.  Even if that would have gone straight it would have gone under the post.

 

[Decked]

Woof these kickers

You know I'm just going to say it, those Dr pepper commercials don't make me want to drink Dr pepper
