Fall Camp

this might happen, but for three years (and actually more like 6 years), I’ve seen the exact same posts about a ton of games we’ve lost - who was concerned about Illinois last year ahead of the season?

this year might be different, but I’m not sure there’s any team that fans shouldn’t be concerned about at this point.
I believe Frost can lose to anyone anywhere at anytime, but I don't really worry about it because if he does it means we're dog shit and the team isn't worth caring about too much
 
Maybe I'm wrong, but I never got the sense that much of the Wandale drama originated from Wandale himself. He played hard and seemed to be a good teammate, but he had some serious helicopter influences in his life that undoubtedly gave the staff some headaches.
That's why I said 'and have dumbasses in your ear', I don't think he was a problem during the season, but his recruitment was drama filled as were both of the offseaons he was here.
 
i wonder if one year all the behind the scene drama queens will actually be gone from the team. it SEEMS like they are finally mostly gone. Of course i didnt have Luke and Wandale being 2 of those guys last fall so who knows
I think if you ask any of the Riley recruits still on the team, not many left, they will tell you that the Frost recruits treat the Riley recruits a little differently. Like they are outcasts and don't belong. I say I think but I can tell that most of them feel that way, this coming from a Riley recruit still on the team.

Riley recruits like Austin Allen, Dismuke, Domann, Damion Daniels, Ben Stille, ect. who all have big leadership roles on the team?
 


Rapid Reaction: Stepp ahead of schedule; tight ends shining; 'night and day' different with Martinez​

Nebraska offensive coordinator Matt Lubick said Wednesday that running back Markese Stepp is ahead of schedule in his recovery from offseason foot surgery.
The Huskers are evaluating Stepp practice by practice, Lubick said. He added that if Nebraska had a game tomorrow, he believes the USC transfer could play.
"He looks 100% to me," Lubick said. "No limitations."

Nebraska tight ends Austin Allen and Travis Vokolek have shined in early workouts, Lubick said.

How much so? Lubick said that in 2016, his final season as Oregon's offensive coordinator, the Ducks had three NFL tight ends.

But Allen and Vokolek, Lubick said, are the best he's ever worked with.
That's led to Nebraska targeting the tight ends in the passing game more than they have under Frost. Often, those two are the first read on several route combinations.
Tight ends coach Sean Beckton said the difference is "night and day" for quarterback Adrian Martinez in terms of mechanics, leadership, and confidence.

"I love where he's at right now," Beckton said. "I told him yesterday to stay where he is, because he's in such a good spot."
Martinez is "demanding a lot out of himself, and demanding a lot out of his teammates," Beckton said, adding that the fourth-year starter is quick to call out teammates when corrections are needed.



"He's playing at the highest level I've ever seen," Beckton said.
Cam Taylor-Britt is on the top line for Nebraska's punt return spot with Oliver Martin pressing him. Freshman receiver Kamonte Grimes is also in that conversation.
