Glad we have other players who can get the job done here..But where was Sophomore Alvano?
Open practice notes
- Thread starter HBK4life
- Start date
Even if they can attract double teams and open lanes for LB’s for sacks that counts the same in my book. I just want to see opposing QB’s on their backs … a bunch.
Huskeronline podcast says he wasn’t on the 120 - they were assuming his injury has taken longer to heal.
Some of Kaelin’s struggles no doubt are some of the guys he’s scrimmaging with but he’s clearly headed for a redshirt.
No worries for DK. He's got a redshirt season ahead of him anyway. The kid has talent.
I don't think this kid has been totally healthy during football season since his sophomore year. And he's changing positions and now this? Hate to see it.
Groin, if I remember correctly. They knew that he would be out and that's why an additional kicker was brought in over the summer.
Not going to say that yet - but it’s why they must be relentless with crootn. How many won’t even impact a single game?
Ya- now that is a real concern including all kick game. Going to have some Ls if that doesn’t become “Elite”.
There is nothing yet we’ve seen in our return game punting or kickoff reruns to determine how good or bad we are this early in camp..
Last night, 5-star phenom Dylan Raiola led the Huskers onto the field for the Big Red Preview practice, where he took all the first team reps in each team competition period. Even to my untrained eye, there's no doubt that he is the best of all the QBs. His release looked smooth and effortless, and he was pretty accurate. I didn't see any passes in danger of being snagged by the defense. He also showed good footwork by navigating a few collapsing pockets, while also being elusive and fast enough to gain yards before escaping out of bounds. It was fun to watch.Now...fast forward to the end of practice, when linemen & assistant coaches from offense and defense squared off in a punt catching competition. The losing side would have to run a gasser. Thanks to a bunch of buttered fingers, or punts bouncing off of padded chests, the defense lost. So then Rhule told the offense leave the field while the defense ran the gasser, and as his mates trotted toward the tunnel, Dylan Raiola stayed and ran it with his defense. Gotta admit: that was the highlight of the night for me.And yes...I said HIS defense. I don't think I'm too far off when I say that the entire night provided two clear messages to those of us who dropped 25 bucks to be in attendance: #1 - This team has it's QB1, who's rapidly becoming a leader. #2 - We got our money's worth.
Stuff like this is where most of these delusional super Twitter posters lose me:
WR core will feed FAMILIES. Nobody in the country is ready for that talent.

Yeah, clearly hyperbole but let's be honest and say they could be top 3-5 er room in conference. "Nobody in the country is ready for that talent" come on.
We have one guy who’s produced at the P5 level and that was elsewhere (Banks)
I just don’t think these guys know what they’re looking at or have ever seen another team for context
We’ve had two 1,000 yard receivers in the history of our entire program for Pete’s sake
