Anyone else impressed with the quick twitch athleticism that Alante Brown showed in his limited time? He can make people miss in small places. Hope we can figure out how to get him on the field more. And how is Kolarevic behind Henrich? Did the coaches watch the same game? Also Clementes looked like one of our more athletic linebackers that actually found a way to the ball carrier. Good to see Vokolek and Rogers back.

I couldn't tell if Clements was always around the ball because he's really fast and covering for guys or if he was always around the ball because he head hunts rather than plays his assignment.

Can Brown catch a punt?

Does a Fat Baby fart?
I have no idea if he can catch a punt but felt like dropping that line in there, cuz it makes me chuckle. If he can catch a punt I am sure our coaches will figure out some way to teach him to drop them, take a knee on the goal line or scoop the ball out of bounds.

Brown needs to play, a lot. Can't keep talent like his off the field.
Kolarevic looks good. I really liked what Clementes showed in his limited time he played in the 4th qtr. Seems like he is a real ball hawk and brings the wood when he tackles. Would like to see him get more time.
I think our ILB is a liability. Reimer looks slowish and I think we need better at that position.

Fwiw not the exact same but I was underwhelmed with him as a kick returner.

Is it concerning that in 160 guys on the team they can't find one who can return kicks at a reasonably ok level? That seems to suggest that they still can't coach special teams at all

what was everyone's take on RB? through 2 games I have absolutely no idea what the coaches see in Ervin. he looks like just a warm body, which judging by the last 4 years must be what the coaches are looking for in practice
from what I've seen the order should be
Stepp
Morrison (this is more on potential, but in his limited action he at least looks like a real RB)
Scott/Johnson/Ervin/Yant are just depth guys that would maybe be used situationally

5-2 and 3-4 alignment is pretty much the same.

Me either, but it's a different skill set. The lateral movement he demonstrated is rare and would translate to punt return.

Held again can’t pick the right RB

I would take it with a grain a of salt it looks like the same Depth Chart Brian Christopherson from 247 had before the Fordham game, I read somewhere Omar actually started the game Saturday, and they had Vokolex as second string and he didn't even have pads on. I think they just put one out at the beginning of the season and just ride with that unless someone has a season ending injury or something like that.

Him and Verdu
At Husker Night last Thursday, This dude asked Sipple about both coaches...his response was Scott knows what to do and isn't afraid to do it if needed. To whit I replied, they should have been gone last year but I understand it's hard to fire friends. He just looked at me and said, he knows what he's doing. Okay Sip!!
Billy Busch-Latte is going to be there this Thursday. This will be interesting
