Fastest Huskers During Winter Conditioning

The QBs should be fast. They've been running for their lives for the past 5 years.
Moving Hill to reciever was a bonehead move by Joseph. It was mid-season. There was no way for him to contribute there. The guy is a great athlete, he just needs to be taught good technique.
faster than smothers, bigger than sims
I've always kind of liked Ervin, but never would have expected to see him listed as second-fastest on the team.
If Haarberg is really faster than Smothers, maybe he should try WR or TE?

I'm interested to see what a QB coach does with his obviously superior raw ability
big time arm, too
Can any of us even begin to imagine how obnoxious Kong is going to be if HH ends up starting and looks good doing it haha!!!
Couldn’t disagree more. The move wasn’t for him to be able to really contribute last season, the move was for the future. The mid-season transfer gave him a head start to move spots.
And it’s not like he could have RS after the transfer. The first 5 games he played @ corner so the shirt was already burnt. So playing him on special teams and playing a few snaps @ WR didn’t hurt him at all.
and I’m sorry it’s pretty obvious defense isn’t his position. The bonehead move was trying to make him a corner.
When players arrive from the recruiting class Jaylen Lloyd, Brice Turner, Malachi Coleman and D’Andre Barnes may end up faster than Hill and Ervin’s Junior..
Did Smothers even test?
is any poster more in lock-step with this staff as yours truly?
I post it, days later they repeat it
haters & losers, once again hide your eyes:

Still more to being a QB besides being faster.. We shall see how he performs this spring..
Who is "Jim in MN" and how does he have access to winter conditioning results?
Let’s see if coach puts the pieces in the right places. HH does have a big arm so it’s nice to see him have some speed too.
It's understandable...they haven't seen him play football yet.
There is a cult of these weirdos on Twitter who think they are the gatekeepers to Husker football and he is one of them. Some of their posts are comical, but these guys are pretty chummy online with a lot of the writers as well as media people. They go nuts when any fan has some sort of negative opinion.
Something seems very wrong with those results. Must have been a lot of guys injured. Unless there is some weird way to calculate mph that doesn't translate to actual speed. Ervin wasn't even considered a burner before his injury. What about Rahmir? What about Fleeks? If true that really shows how unathletic our team was under Frost.
And with that move back to defense, Hill becomes the best pile inspector on the team.
mph doesn’t necessarily equate to 40 time - suspect it is just top speed achieved.
Doesn’t account for how long it takes to reach top speed or how long it can be maintained

Been a fan of Haarberggggggg for a long time even being laughed at. Good to see he is getting some hype and love.
“pile protector”
I’ve been in the game a LONG time as a coach and I’ve never heard that one. Fantastic!
I will use that one a TON.
Could be. As a freshman, Ervin seemed to have good wheels but hardly fastest-guy-on-the-team speed. On the QB side, I didn't know Smothers was hurt.
It seems like for years we barely had a 2nd scholarship qb and now it seems like we have too many scholarship qbs and all of them are hurt.
True though I will say in pads I have never really seen Smothers speed. Maybe I was just spoiled with Taylor Martinez even Luke McCaffery outside of that tOSU game in 2020 never seemed to be that scary fast.
Smothers is very fast. I’m not buying that Haarberg is faster than Smothers.
of course you don't
you have publicly stated you believe Haarberg should be at UNK while smothers' experience sucking ass somehow makes him a valuable member of the team
Haarberg having success will put your fandom at odds with your strengthening personal feelings toward me - something I find extremely hilarious
I’m on the record of wanting all of the QBs to stick around for fall camp.
I suspect former Husker safety Nate Gierry would have done really good in this stat. Besides getting several very questionable targeting calls in his time, I remember him running multiple guys down about thirty or forty yards downfield. I ain't even crapping on the guy. He didn't get burned (ok, maybe he was out of the play by his own accord), but dude would be tackling some really fast guy at the five yard line a ton of times.
I personally would start drinking the cheapest whiskey I could buy, choke it down but still get hammered to deal with Kong
Yeah I am not saying that he is not faster, Smothers that is. But I am just saying I have never seen him streaking down the field like some of our other guys.
