Thanks Sam, I'm just glad Stefon Thompson still has an ankle
Mazzccua needs to get his head on straight.. Hope can contribute moving forward he can be helping us with the run game moving forward..
Or just play with all 4 downs to get 10 yards mindsets once you cross the 50.Time to work up some fake fg’s!!!!

Don’t understand why they don’t just cut bait with Maccuzza. It’s a distraction at this point with the fans and media constantly asking why he’s not on the field.
I'd rather just see us go for it on 4th down.Time to work up some fake fg’s!!!!
Because that's not how the Huskers operate as a team.
Me too for sure. I was just playing around. Give me our boys and DR lined up knowing we are going for it over our FG unit all day.
Two part answer:
1. If he’s good then we need him to be playing
2. Who is it a distraction to when people ask questions? Not his teammates because they don’t get asked

Just have to do what they know to do.-Making the snaps and kicks in practice, expecting to do the same in the games.-Rutgers is going to come after the punts and kicks. Has a history of getting blocks.-"Some guys play football because they're talented.

We got Suh back N town this weekend. Blackshirts better represent or they will have to answer to him.
It's too bad he gets 1 touch a game
If we gave it to him every possession we’d be unstoppable
He's still learning how to be a football player. But very promising nevertheless.
100%. I just love watching the dudes with speed get after it.
They accepted him onto the team therefore the leaders have a responsibility to help develop him not just in football but as a person. Apparently they haven’t reached a breaking point to kick him out yet. Rhule is a “people first” leader
