Spring Practice Notes: Practice #2

[jeans15]

Brian Christopherson

Five (or six) Husker walk-ons to watch. Including the do-it-all kid from Albion, the DB who made the team through a tryout, and the Omaha Burke grad who started kicking after watching Alex Henery. https://nebraska.247sports.com/Bolt/Here-are-some-Nebraska-walk-ons-who-could-make-a-move-this-spring-116705237 …

Here are some Nebraska walk-ons who could make a move this spring.
It's new opportunity for some walk-ons under the watch of a head coach who knows well the power of walk-ons when it comes to Husker football.

Scott Frost said Day 2 of spring practice wasn’t as good as the first. Said they hold themselves to a high standard and want to reach that every time out.

Greg Bell had a “really good day” at running back on Tuesday, Frost said. Also noted Devine Ozigbo has slimmed down. #Huskers

Frost says JD Spielman is a perfect fit for this offense, said he went to visit Spielman his junior season when Frost was at Oregon. #Huskers




PFrost said he’s impressed with the quarterback room. “We’ve got some guys who are learning fast and making big plays,” he said. #Huskers

Cornerback Lamar Jackson said he put on 8 pounds of muscle in winter conditioning and dropped body fat to 9 percent from 11. Said practice under the new staff is "a marathon." #Huskers

Jackson also seemed to address the thing most gave him crap about.

One of Lamar Jackson’s biggest personal goals? Become a sure tackler, he said. It’s an area he knows he needs to improve on.

It does slim you down if you’ve got the balls to stick with it.

Like any occupation with a team structure, buy in is a huge deal. You can tell from listening to interviews with both coaches and players, that leadership from the top all the way down was lacking in this program. The biggest impact HCSF is going to have is bringing accountability to all levels of this program.

Of course it wasn't as good as practice one. The kids are coming back from partying for a week straight. lol

Do they not practice every day? He said they will have a big challenge ahead for Thursday. No practice today?

Yeah. It's spread out.

The final practice is after the spring game.
