LETTER FROM THE EDITOR Mike Riley probably won’t win nine or 10 games this season, but the 61-year-old coach shouldn’t be measured by wins and losses — at least not in his first season. Many pointed to the firing of Bo Pelini as a mistake because of his consistency. As almost everyone in Nebraska knows, Pelini won nine or 10 games in all seven seasons he coached in Lincoln. But the hiring of Riley isn’t about winning nine or 10 games; it’s about getting over the hump. Many didn’t think the best way to get over the hump was a 61-year-old who went 93-80 in 14 seasons at Oregon State. To others, like myself, the anti-Pelini is just what this team needs. However, having the anti-Pelini won’t pay dividends immediately. Under Pelini and offensive coordinator Tim Beck, the Huskers ran a spread offense. It was a fast paced attack that amounted to 37.8 average points per game. This season Nebraska is implementing Riley’s pass-heavy West Coast offense. The new plays the players are learning will be a little more complex than before as they aren’t used to the terminology. The most important piece of the new offense’s puzzle is junior quarterback Tommy Armstrong Jr. Armstrong has completed a little better than 52 percent of his passes in his two-year career as a starter. That number has to improve. But whether or not it does improve, it’s not on Riley. The head coach and new offensive coordinator Danny Langsdorf can only do so much to get Armstrong ready for game action in a new complex offense. Armstrong could struggle early, but most quarterbacks do when they learn a new offense. Things will be especially difficult for Armstrong because the new offense favors shorter throws, which require more accuracy while Armstrong has been known more for his arm strength rather than his touch. In the first year, offensively they’ll have growing pains. Riley’s personnel doesn’t exactly fit his system. But that’s to be expected when he’s running his offense with Pelini’s guys. In the grand scheme of things, it’s alright to have growing pains. But fans may be quick to get on Riley, Armstrong, Langsdorf, or maybe even all three if the Huskers struggle against BYU and South Alabama. A year from now, I think Armstrong and the Huskers will benefit from the slower tempo offense. It will give the quarterback more time to think and keep things from getting too hectic. A deep breath is something an athlete such as Armstrong needs because while he has the tools to make a lot of plays, he needs to know when not to force plays, which I think Riley will help the junior with. On the defensive side of the ball the Huskers look very different as well. Junior linebacker Josh Banderas said the team will look like they are blitzing every play and the new scheme gets rid of “paralysis by analysis,” which is something that looked like it happened often to the Husker linebackers last season.

However, outside of Banderas and junior linebacker Michael Rose-Ivey, Nebraska lacks experience at linebacker: the most important position in an attacking defense. It could prove difficult for guys who aren’t used to the speed of the college game to be in full attack mode from the get-go. Defensive coordinator Mark Banker said he wants the team to appear faster by having every guy read the play and get to the ball at the correct angle. The new defense sounds great on paper but keep in mind it’s still a completely new scheme for the players to learn. I’m not even going to get into the injury of sophomore De’Mornay PiersonEl; that doesn’t help Riley at all. An X-factor in the return game and a guy who could’ve been an essential part of the screen and catch-and-run pass game is done for 6 to 8 weeks. The new schemes, injuries and a completely new coaching staff could cause struggle this season for the Huskers. I have them winning eight games. But take a step back from this season and think about the future. An accurate, decisive Armstrong. A Blackshirts defense that flies into the backfield. A healthy Pierson-El getting plenty of open field touches. All of these things are possible, but they’re more likely a year away. Give it time. Let things take their course, and you’ll be glad Riley came to Lincoln.

Sincerely, Brett Nierengarten

The environment, immigration, social justice and women’s rights will be the focus of this season’s E.N. Thompson Forum on World Issues. Katie Bodie Cervantes, coordinator of the forum, said that the time is right to talk about activism. “In following global events and national news, I think it’s obvious that grassroots activism is building in momentum and we’re seeing movements that start small and local, really building and growing into regional or national and even international forces,” she said.

Cervantes said students who attend the forum will gain a perspective that doesn’t always come from sitting inside the classroom. “Higher education should include learning of facts and information and important knowledge and wisdom that our UNL professors share, but the Thompson Forum strongly believes that we need to become engaged participants in society and make a positive impact in our world and so our hope is that the University of Nebraska trains leaders and future leaders for our community and nation,” she said. Berger said that students listening to the lecture are just beginning their learning process and he said he hopes that students further their knowledge by having discussions after the lecture is over.

UNL seeks clothing retailer for bookstore ZACH HAMMACK DN The university is seeking proposals from developers for the future of the Nebraska Bookstore after its June purchase of the building and real estate. The $4.75 million building and property located on 1300 Q St. closed in June after the Nebraska Book Co. described the store as one that wasn’t performing up to expectations, though cited no single reason, according to the Lincoln Journal Star. “It was the Nebraska Bookstore’s independent decision to close its location,” news director for university communications, Steve Smith, said in an email statement. “The purchase was a strategic acquisition for the university. The property’s proximity to campus is obviously useful.” The building sits near the 13th Street entrance to University of Nebraska-Lincoln, the Mary Riepma Ross Media Arts Center and Van Brunt Visitor’s Center. The university reached out to prospective developers in the “Request for Proposals,” a form that lined out intentions for the building. Proposals are due by Sept. 14. The form included the university’s wishes of using the building “for the purpose of operating a nationally or globally visible retail store.” “The emphasis at this point is on attracting a national retail clothing merchandiser that would complement the ongoing development in downtown Lincoln and would be attractive to students as well as the thousands of visitors that come to UNL each year,” Smith said.

“The university is also considering using it for academic purposes,” Smith said. “There will be nearly 30,000 square feet for academic use, so a number of university programs may potentially take advantage of the space,” he said. Christopher Walters, who graduated last May, but still frequents the campus and uses its facilities, doesn’t like the idea of using the building for a clothing retailer. “If I want to shop for clothes, I can go do that at South Pointe,” said Walters. He said he would prefer to see a mixed-market grocery retailer that would promote health. “I have to drive out to Hy-Vee either on 27th or down O Street. We don’t have good food close to campus,” Walters said. Freshman English major Ryder Mays agreed. “There’s nothing quite like a grocery store near campus, while there are more options for clothing,” Mays said. “I think it definitely could be useful.” Despite the lack of supermarket options close to the city campus, the “Request for Proposals “is specific in seeking a clothing retailer to coincide with the blooming Haymarket development. The prospect of a retailer moving into the Nebraska Bookstore building is not final. The request states “UNL is prepared to utilize the entire structure for academic purposes, given the growing commercial activity on Q Street.” Walters is wary of using the building for academics since he believes there is enough unused infrastructure on campus. The safe bet, he says, is to stick with a grocery

The Board of Regents will likely review any acceptable proposals at its October board meeting, according to the university’s website.

Ignite continues 7-year run of promoting passion Fifteen presentors will speak on a variety of topics for the seventh year, its fifth year at the Rococo Theatre. JUSTIN PERKINS DN Entering into its seventh year, Ignite Lincoln has set the stakes high for its future. The annual Ignite event, which will begin on Thursday, will bring 15 speakers – both novice and professional – together to talk about something they are passionate about. At the end of the evening, Ignite donates their proceeds to a local nonprofit. “We would love it if one day, Ignite Lincoln became the premier Ignite event in the country,” said Ben Spence, a head organizer for this year’s event. This is the fifth year the speaking event will be hosted at the Rococo Theater downtown. By the second year, the event outgrew its first venue at the Bourbon, Spence said, and he has hopes of sometime surpassing the national attendance record at an Ignite eventof 1,000 people. Given Ignite Lincoln’s own record of 600, Spence believes the goal is well within range. “Our main goal is just to bring people together from all facets of life,” Spence said. “We want people to be more aware of what’s going on in the community and share ideas of how to make it a better place.” Originally held in Seattle in 2006, Ignite events have spread throughout the country ever

Ideally, you’ll see yourself in one of these characters.” Other topics at this year’s Ignite Lincoln span across theme and seriousness and include online dating at 50 years old, the future of business models and consumer habits among Gen X and Millennial generations, marathon running and rewriting the cultural sexual script. More than 30 nonprofits and 25 speakers applied for this year’s event, Spence said, with five nonprofit finalists and 15 speakers chosen. Each entry was judged on creativity, clarity and the degree to which they exemplify “igniting passion” in Lincoln. One hundred percent of the profits generated from sponsor donations and ticket sales will go toward the five non-profit finalists, with the majority of the money going toward the winning nonprofit, Spence said. He said it will have the opportunity to pitch their cause to the audience, which will decide the winner at the end. “We just want to get a good cross-section of the community,” Spence said. “We’re not always looking for the most polished performers; we also look for speakers for who taking the stage might be a risk itself.”

Food Science and Techology gains new space LAUREN REAMS DN

The University of Nebraska-Lincoln recently opened the third building on the newly constructed Nebraska Innovation Campus. The Department of Food Science and Technology opened in July and is the first UNL academic unit to relocate to the research park. Before moving to the new location, the department was housed in a basement on East Campus. Now, the department, its 27 faculty members and 140 undergraduate and graduate students will begin taking courses this fall and will have brand new state-of-the-art equipment. The department will occupy the four-story Food Innovation Center, which was built from the former State Fair Park’s Industrial Arts Building. After the beginning of 2014, the NU Board of Regents approved the $4.5 million lease space for the 178,000 square-foot building. The Food Innovation Center will showcase an analytical lab as well as labs for microbiology, food allergies, gut biology, physical chemistry, cereal processing, food safety, clinical and behavior studies and much more. The center also has student lounges, study areas, faculty offices and auditoriums and several classrooms that can hold up to as many as 50 stu-

dents. The one classroom in the former food science department could only seat 40 students. There will also be an adjoining auditorium space, which, similar to the other new classrooms, will have wiring available for video conferences, open for lecturers and can comfortably seat 120 students. The fourth floor of the center is currently empty and will be available for rent by industry partners who hope to be located near the cutting-edge research that will be taking place this upcoming semester. The university has added 35 class sections and a StarTran bus route will be available to shuttle students to any of the UNL campuses. Because the department was the first academic unit to locate to Innovation Campus, the faculty was able to consult on the design of the building with the goal of optimizing the space for the potential of future growth both academically and economically for the Food Innovation Center. The manager of the analytical lab, Richard Zbasnik, said that they finally have the storage space, they have always needed and the new space is much more functional.

ASUN looks forward, works with RSOs BAILEY SCHULZ DN After having a summer to prepare, the Association of Students of the University of Nebraska is ready to get back in the swing of things. Student body president Thien Chau, internal vice president Josh Waltjer and external vice president Jared McKeever have been in their positions since last April, when they were sworn in amid a ballot controversy. McKeever, who ran with the Launch Party against Chau and Waltjer’s Empower Party, took over the position after Empower’s Adamma Izu, who was elected by the student body in March, was retroactively removed from the ballot after a grade release check determined she was ineligible to run for the position. Chau made an appeal to the decision back in April, but the appeal was ruled out for lack of grounds, according to Waltjer. The internal vice president said that as soon as the announcement was made, their initial reaction was to fight it. “In the rush of the moment, we were kind of caught off guard and we were wondering if there was a possibility that this could be (appealed),” he said. “This was a very tough situation for all of us. We did flirt with the idea of bringing it to student court.” Waltjer said that, after time, they realized that the appeal wouldn’t work. “It kind of just faded away,” Waltjer said. “Slowly we realized that that was the right thing to do, to revoke the appeal... The best thing we could do in the situation I think is what we did.” Waltjer said that McKeever, who was a chairman on the Committee for Fee Allocations last year, is doing a great job with the financial side of ASUN and with the team in general. And even with the swap of external vice presidents, Chau said that the executives work well together. “We all have a lot of initiatives we want to work on and there’s a lot of delegation between the three of us,” Chau said. McKeever said that because the Launch and Empower parties had such similar campaigns, he said he thinks that the team will continue to work well together as the year progresses. “I am very grateful I was offered the position, and I look forward to working with President Chau and internal vice president Waltjer to move forward and make it better for ASUN,” he said. All three executives have big plans for the upcoming year. Chau said that ASUN is working hard to collaborate with registered student organizations. “We have a few things that we’re working on with some of the other organizations on campus,” he said. “To name a few, there’s the Women’s Center, the Center for Civic Engagement and a few other RSOs.” Chau said that some of the bigger goals throughout the year are looking at mental health, student relations with the local and state government, sexual assault and misconduct and sustainability. “We’re also looking at college affordability for students,” he said. “Whether it’s looking to lower the cost or just helping students find ways to be smart about their loans.” One of the closest events ASUN has planned is a Oct. 4 workshop that will address rape and sexual assault awareness and protection, mental health and sustainability.

Waltjer said he also hopes it becomes wellknown across campus that there are resources available and that “it’s not weird, it’s not a sign of weakness; It’s a sign of intelligence to go in and get help.” One event that he’s trying to set up with the help of Active Minds is called Send Silence Packing. The exhibit would set out backpacks from students who committed suicide across campus. Each backpack would have a plaque that would explain the student’s story, how the suicide could have been prevented and what signs could be seen. “We’re not sure yet if it’ll go through,” Waltjer said. “Recently, we talked about funding, because it is very expensive... but that’s something that I’m pretty passionate about.”

than anyone else on this roster. His experience has been evident since coach Riley and his staff came to campus. He’s had better timing with his passes compared tp everyone else, and the biggest change he’s made so far is his awareness.

During Saturday’s live scrimmage, Armstrong had a great sense of pressure and was making much better decisions than his backups. There’s

Veteran Huskers shine in Red/White Scrimmage

PHOTO BY JAMES WOOLDRIDGE | DN Coach John Cook speaks to the Red team during a timeout at the Red-White Scrimmage Saturday night at the Bob Devaney Sports Center. Cook and the Huskers will face Tulsa at home Friday, Aug. 28 during the Nebraska Invitational. SETH OLSON DN

Saturday night’s Red-White Scrimmage at the Bob Devaney Sports Center was a tune-up for the Nebraska volleyball team for a reason; the Huskers had a few kinks to work out. While Nebraska coach John Cook said it was a high-error match in the Red team’s 3-1 (2522, 25-22, 19-25, 16-14) victory, there were also many positives from the scrimmage. “I thought we had a lot of players who were really solid and stood out, and the overall play on both sides was really good,” Cook said. “I was really impressed that we had two solid sides going at it. Usually, we have to throw a manager in there.” When it came to the miscues — in particular the 48 combined errors by the two squads — Cook knew it was because of the team’s practice

schedule, which was shorter than normal. With the team having only 10 days of practice leading up to the Saturday scrimmage, Cook said he was concerned. “The schedule was a four or five day window shorter than what we normally have, so it was one of the things I was really worried about going into this,” he said. “There was some good stuff, but there was some ugly volleyball in there as well. But it’s good for them to learn.” A lot of the ‘good stuff’ came from Nebraska’s leaders, particularly two of its upperclassmen: Kadie Rolfzen and Justine Wong-Orantes. Both of these juniors Cook had highly praised. Rolfzen of the Red team led all players on both sides in kills with 17. The two-time AllAmerican also added nine digs. “I have high expectations for Kadie (Rolfzen),” Cook said. “She was showing tonight that she’s a big-time player.”

Wong-Orantes, the Huskers libero, was labeled by her coach as the best player in the gym Saturday. She led the White team with 18 assists, while adding 12 digs. “Justine does everything,” Cook said. “Whatever we ask her to do, she does it. I thought she did a great job of running the other side (White team) and making it competitive. She’s just a really, really good volleyball player.” Other standout performers at the scrimmage were sophomore setter Kelly Hunter, who tallied 39 assists for the Red team, and sophomore outside hitter Annika Albrecht, who played two sets for team Red and two sets for team White, tallying nine kills and nine digs total. Albrecht, a second-year walk-on from Illinois is competing for a starting outside hitter spot heading into the final week of preparation before Nebraska’s match against Tulsa on Friday, Aug. 28.

During the week, Cook will have some tough decisions to make as many players presented their case at the scrimmage. But while at the podium, the coach cracked a joke at the circumstances. “It’s like throwing the $100 bill in the room and see who comes out with it,” Cook said. “I’m going to have to let those guys compete a little bit for it this week.” Senior middle blocker Cecilia Hall also elaborated on the heavy competition on the front line. “The competition has been good,” Hall said. “We all get along well, and we just have fun together so I know we are going to support each other no matter who starts.” The players had plenty of energy on Saturday night, but it was largely in part to the 5,148 fans in attendance for the scrimmage. “We are having a lot of fun out there, and it’s


12 | MONDAY, August 24, 2015 fun when the crowd gets into it too,” Mikaela Foecke said. “It was exciting because it was a real game, but we were playing each other so it was not necessarily relaxed. But we got to enjoy it and have fun.” The match was enjoyable for both the players and the fans, as all four sets were back-and-forth. The crowd exploded in the fourth point of the entire match after a series of rallies that featured numerous digs. The first set went to team Red, 25-22 as they pulled away in the final points. The

DAILYNEBRASKAN.COM White team got off to a good start in the second, jumping to a 19-16 lead before team Red roared back to score 7 of the next 8 points to take a 23-20 lead. Hall capped off the second set with a thunderous block. Foecke was a big part of that second set win because she delivered four kills and added eight digs. Overall, she had eight kills and 14 digs in the match. Cook was impressed with the overall

team floor defense, but Foecke’s in particular. “People play well around her,” Cook said. “Mikaela (Foecke) knows which balls to go for and which ones not to go for and she also communicates very well. She was really smooth in a lot of junk plays tonight.” After dropping the first two sets, team White bounced back with a 25-19 victory, which was finished off by a kill to the opposite corner by Albrecht. It forced a fourth and final set, which was played only to 15.

Team Red held off the White with a 1614 victory, but not before 11 ties and six lead changes between the two teams in the final set. The No. 5 Huskers will have their first regular season games this weekend when they host Tulsa on Friday, Aug. 28 at 7 p.m. followed by Grand Canyon on Saturday at noon, both at the Bob Devaney Sports Center.

Late Underwood Remembered for Smile, High Standards CODY NAGEL DN

When someone passes away, it’s natural for people to gather to mourn and grieve. The night of Aug. 14 was different. The night was about celebrating the man who could instantly light up a room. The man who always put others before himself and the man who went the extra mile for the sport and program he loved. The evening was picturesque. With a clear blue sky, the eventual setting sun disappearing behind the stadium, the luscious grass field in perfect condition, a bold, white ‘PJU’ painted to the left of the midfield line near the stands. *** On Saturday, May 16, the Nebraska soccer program lost a brilliant, selfless coach who was known to have a big heart and a goofy grin. Peter Underwood, 31, was killed in a car accident near Atlantic, Iowa, while on a recruiting trip. “Peter didn’t care who you were, if he knew you or not he would tell you ‘hello’ with the biggest smile on his face and tell you to ‘have a great day,’” junior forward Jaycie Johnson said. “He was one of the nicest, most respected, (and) over all, one of the best coaches I’ve ever met and worked with.” In the second exhibition game of the 2015 season at the new Hibner Stadium against South Dakota, the team celebrated the life and legacy of its coach. As the teams finished their warm-ups, family members and friends of Underwood gathered behind the ‘PJU,’ including his wife, Austin, daughter, Lyla and son, Jude. All members of the Nebraska team stood behind the family. Coach John Walker gave a few words about his former assistant coach and right-hand man, calling him passionate and persistent. Walker also said the team will honor him by how the team behaves both on and off of the field. Seniors Jaylyn Odermann and Katie Kraeutner along with juniors Johnson and Caroline Flynn removed the scarlet sheets from two framed No. 10 Underwood jerseys were presented to the family. Instead of a traditional moment of silence, Walker asked the crowd to give a standing ovation and a loud cheer for Underwood. The 1,159 fans in attendance obliged. “I couldn’t help but tear up alongside my teammate Katie as the crowd roared,” Odermann said, “I turned to her at one point and said, ‘I never in a million years thought we would have to be doing this,’ but the tears that were flowing weren’t out of pain or sorrow. It was out of joy from the amount of love and unity being felt in that stadium.” Before a short video presentation was played on the scoreboard, Walker asked one more favor from the crowd. To honor Underwood in their

Underwood is remembered for his passion and ambition for high standards within the Nebraska Soccer program. own way by creating the electric atmosphere he brought to the team. “Everything we do on a daily basis involved Peter in some sort of way,” Kraeutner said, “Peter made sure every little detail of our program was taken care of. This was one thing that helped to make this a truly special and cohesive team. “He devoted himself to sticking with a player until they achieved what they wanted,” Odermann said, “And if he believed a player had the potential to master something, he didn’t let them stop and worked with them every step of the way until he proved to that player they could accomplish it.” For many on the team, he was more than just a coach. Underwood was a mentor, friend and a father figure. “He would spend extra time with us after

practice or before to help with any technical things that we needed or wanted to work on,” Johnson said, “Peter was the ‘go-to-guy,’ the ‘hands-on-guy’ for all of us girls.” Underwood had a vast knowledge of the game and would give up his time to help any player at any time. He knew when it was time to do business. But he also understood when it was time to have a little fun, crack jokes and pull little pranks on the players. “He’d always be the first to tease me for being a Manchester United supporter,” Kraeutner said, “And would constantly say, ‘come one Katie, I support a real football club,’ which was Charlton Athletic.” Whether it was teasing about whose favorite soccer club was better or telling Odermann she had a poor British accent whenever she tried to mimic him, nothing compared to the daily, funny pictures and videos of his children he would

show to everyone. “He was such a family man, and always loved showing off his kids and wife to us,” Johnson said, “He took so much pride and joy in his family; they were his whole world.” *** The Huskers controlled their emotions as they dominated South Dakota in a 6-2 win. “I know I can speak for the team when I say that the principles, high standards and absolute passion that Peter lived by on a daily basis will always remain within our team and the entire Nebraska soccer program,” Kraeutner said, “It puts us at ease knowing that every single time we step onto the field there’s a piece of Peter with us.”

New equipment for NU volleyball, action on court creates electrifying atmosphere SETH OLSON DN

Husker athletics is known for its loyal fan base. That loyalty was on full display Saturday night at the Bob Devaney Sports Center when the Nebraska volleyball team kicked off its season with the RedWhite Scrimmage in front of a packed house of 5,148 fans. Before the scrimmage, coach John Cook took the microphone and thanked all of the fans and told them how proud he was to see them fill the Bob Devaney Sports Center. As he gave instructions for the crowd to cheer for whichever team was on their half of the arena, Cook emphasized the importance of the crowd’s atmosphere. With six newcomers on their roster, Cook wanted the atmosphere revved up to prepare them for the real deal Friday, Aug. 28 in the Huskers’ season opener against Tulsa. The crowd listened to Cook. They brought the energy and excitement to the Husker volleyball team. “It was like an electric field down there on the floor,” Cook said. “It felt like a big-time atmosphere. There was a buzz down there and great energy so it seemed like the fans were having a good time.” After the game, Cook took notice of the long line for players’ autographs, noting there were sev-

Huskers started practice their defense has continued to rise, an uncommon characteristic of Husker teams. “From day one to now, our blocking has improved a lot and our defense has been making some really good hustle plays,” Foecke said. “Tonight (Saturday), we had three or four really long rallies. It’s something you haven’t really seen before in Nebraska teams.” In addition to the action on the court, fans were also able to see the arena’s new video board and hear the new sound system. “On the radio, they said everybody loved the sound system and it was crystal clear,” Cook said. “The video board was pretty cool too. I watched one replay and it was incredible how slow it was and the angle they had.” Cook said the crowd lost a little energy and got quiet in the third set because there was some ugly volleyball going on at the time. But during the spurts of big rallies, Cook noticed the liveliness of the fans. “On the rallies, our fans know good volleyball and they cheer really loud when there’s a good play and they know it,” Cook said. “That’s what’s cool about our fans.”

FALL TAKEAWAY: FROM 10 no doubt he’ll be producing better numbers this season. 2. Running game is still up in the air. What was a staple for the past couple seasons is now a concern. After the departure of Ameer Abdullah, the new staff has had trouble figuring out how to find consistency in the run game. Although Imani Cross and Terrell Newby have some experience, it’s been tough for someone to stick out. Saturday’s scrimmage was dominated by the passing game as no one seemed to get any traction. Jordan Stevenson, who committed to Nebraska at the last second, brought a lot of interest to the competition. But the four-star recruit has yet to get quality reps at practice, even though he’s shown he can thrive at the next level. 3. Defensive line will be the anchor. Of all the groups on this team, the defensive line will be the most exciting to watch. It returns players such as Maliek Collins, Vincent Valentine, Greg McMullen and Jack Gangwish. These four guys alone will be relentless in how they attack the opposition. Collins, already named to numerous preseason All-America lists, will definitely lead this group as coaches on Bo Pelini’s staff and Mike Riley’s staff have compared him to many NFL players. Also adding depth to the line are Kevin Williams and Freedom Akinmoladun, who recently made the switch from tight end to defensive end. Also, look out for Jack Gangwish, who will be a standout on the edge this season.

4. Inexperienced receivers are standing out. With Demornay Pierson-El out for six to eight weeks, the Huskers will be looking for young players to step up and fill the role of the speedster. This team was ready to utilize the jet sweep, and now they have to look elsewhere in the playbook. A true freshman who has really made his mark is Stanley Morgan. Wide receivers coach Keith Williams recruited Morgan out of Louisiana when he was still coaching at Tulane, and now the two have been put together at Nebraska. Morgan, even though he didn’t enroll early, has been a fast learner, and is adjusting well. Also standing out is Alonzo Moore. The junior has yet to score a touchdown, but he’s running his routes a lot better and will definitely be getting open looks this season. 5. Linebackers group will be young. The biggest concern when the staff came in was the lack of depth on the linebackers’ position. The departure of leading tackler David Santos didn’t help with that. While Josh Banderas and Michael Rose-Ivey will be leading the group, there’s a big drop-off after that. This is one of the major reasons linebackers coach Trent Bray and others have been aggressively going after linebacker recruits since the word go. Two freshmen who have really stood out are Dedrick Young, who enrolled early and competed in spring ball, and Mohammed Barry. This is a crucial group that requires speed and size to be able to stop rushing attacks from teams such as Wisconsin.
