Football tour notebook: Tom Dienhart’s fun takes from Nebraska
By Tom Dienhart, BTN.com Senior Writer - 12 hours ago

Former Husker offensive line coach Milt Tenopir was on hand on Tuesday in a scooter as he battles cancer. He built some legendary offensive lines in Lincoln from 1974-2002.

De’Mornay Pierson-El wears three rubber wristbands for inspiration. Two show support for children he has met. The other—a black one—simply reads: “Prove Them All Wrong.” He is doing just that. He told me his high school coach got it for him. Pierson-El, just a sophomore, is primed to build on a big freshman debut. I asked him who has the best hands on the corps. Pierson-El said he did. As for the strongest in the weight room: He named Taariq Allen, Jordan Westerkamp and Brandon Reilly.

More Pierson-El: He says he will run back punts but isn’t slated to help on kickoff returns unless it’s absolutely necessary.

BTN came calling. This is their take on NU. Nothing new really. But there's a nice little video interview with De'Mornay.

The more DPE highlights I watch and the more good things they say about him, I think he is the difference maker next year. On top of a year into a new system, an established QB and RB, DPE could be what carries us to a trophy if the defense makes the strides we anticipate.

 
Pretty crazy, because I don't remember any of us clamping about him coming into last year. Pretty great addition for our offense and ST.
