After seeing Barney in the spring game he has to be either on Kickoffs or punt returns..
Fall camp notes-Scrimmage and injury updates
- Thread starter HBK4life
- Start date
Taumua has an arm/shoulder injury. Shouldn't hold him out for too long.
Brix is going to be good. Not ready this year probably.

Yep! Smartest move a husker player can do...be a good guy, make connections and stay in the state. Set for life
Dude will either get any HS teaching placement he wants and/or start off as a GA with HUGE connections and go from there...great move by him.

I agree with your concerns. Of course decent play-calling and scheme can slow down a pass rush…
Interesting. With bonner & Nelson going WR with the depth we already have, rahmir type player at RB, Rhules past comment about passing success this season and Rioala, I'm starting to think we are going to be a fast break offense this year. And good enough at the running game to keep them honest on D.
I didn’t think so but Benning seems to think otherwise and he watches a lot of practices.
1st scrimmage before the season opener.. Be interesting how much success Dylan and the O have against the veteran black shirts..
My thoughts exactly. That is what is so great about having a good defense again. It gives the coaches a much better sense of just how good their offense is. You practice against quality then you play with confidence in a real game.
He said Freshman, so I assumed Raiola and Kaelin. They are going to make some mistakes, might as well throw everything at them and let them learn.
1's, 2's, and 3's evening up abilities this year. depth ? will make a ton of difference into the season.
He generalized the TO issues with the QBs and then went on to focus on issues that Freshmen will face.
Coach Matt Rhule Fall Camp Press Conference - Notes-Isaiah Neyor will be a featured part in the offense-pretty clean scrimmage, especially in terms of pre-snap penalties-good physical work on both sides of the ball-Turner Corcoran was cleared to practice but did not scrimmage today, he’ll be full go come Monday-Turner will be an important piece of the offense-we have a lot of young weapons -biggest thing Coach Rhule is looking for in the QB’s - “who they are when things are going wrong”-trying to give them exposure to strenuous situations - “that’s the key to young people becoming men”-Tristan Alvano is in the 120-man roster, “he’s kicking”-we’re automatic from the 25 yard line, reliable from the 30-Dante Dowdell is catching his wind now-4-man rush is improving, but can we do it when it matters-doing some new things defensively-Blye Hill is on the 120-man roster-Blye Hill is doing individual training right now-closed the scrimmage down from family and former players because he wanted the players to just play and focus on the game-“I can put the third team offense against the first team defense, and it looks like football. It didn’t look that way last year”-the gap between 1st and 3rd team is significantly improved-“Princewill’s career will be defined by his process” - his practice, academics, etc.-we have a really good Jack room-Princewill is completely different pass rusher than MJ-Brice Turner broke a bone in his hand-voting for single digit numbers next week-emotional grind of being out for the year is tough, lots of credit to the players

And people questioned BCs last second FG against OU in 2004 when down 30-0. He knew
It should be interesting to see how all of this plays out. The Huskers have six returning WRs with experience including the two transfers. But then Barney, Smith and Carter Nelson appear to be good enough to play right away.Lots of talent in Missouri and Keelan was awarded.
Keelan Smith was named the Missouri Player of the Year by MaxPreps this week, and also made the outlet's second-team All-America unit as a tight end. This comes after last week being named the state's offensive player of the year by the Missouri Football Coaches Association.
Keelan Smith racking up significant honors in Missouri before planned Big Red arrival
A big honor for this tight end/receiver expected to sign with Nebraska tomorrow.247sports.com
Special teams is fine and all, but I think we've got to get this kid the ball on offense. If Dylan hits him in stride, he's a big play waiting to happen. Barney brings a big play element to this offense that has been sorely lacking for years.
Lacking for one year. The year prior we had more big plays with Thompson and Palmer than we’ve had in years.
Palmer was an anomaly. Nebraska hasn't had a deep threat since how knows when
I’m really excited about the potential of some of these receivers!
