The greatest football team the world has ever known
 

Huskers Hit the Practice Field for Start of Fall Camp
Lincoln-A day after welcoming over 6,500 fans into Memorial Stadium for Fan Day, the Nebraska football team took the practice field for the first time, as they geared up for the start of the 2011 campaign. The Huskers practiced in only helmets as they must meet the mandatory adjustment period set by the NCAA. NU worked out for two hours on the Ed and Joyann Gass practice field northeast of Memorial Stadium Saturday morning.

Head Coach Bo Pelini addressed the media after his squad's opening practice. Pelini said that it was a typical first day and that guys were excited to be on the field again.

"It was pretty good," Pelini said of practice. "I thought the tempo was really good. Effort was great, guys were flying around. I think they were excited to be out there. We got a lot done. Typical first day, you have a lot of good things; I saw a lot of good things out there. I saw a lot of mental mistakes and things we need to get cleaned up, but I thought for our first day it was a pretty good day for us."

One of the main topics covered in Pelini's session with the media was the status of freshman quarterback Bubba Starling. Starling was selected fifth overall by the Kansas City Royals in June's Major League Baseball Draft and must decide between football and baseball by the Aug. 15 MLB signing deadline. The freshman quarterback is not on the current 105-man roster, but Pelini noted that he and Starling's family have been in constant communication on the best way to handle the situation.

"We'll see how that plays out," Pelini said. "The situation is normal, but obviously he has a lot at risk so we communicated with the family and decided the best way to go about it and we're all on the same page."

"This was a plan we've had for a while now. It's no surprise to me or them. We're all on the same page as far as how we're going about this."

Another true freshman making headlines after Saturday's practice was Jamal Turner. Turner took some snaps at the quarterback position for some of practice, but Pelini pointed out that Turner is a receiver first and quarterback second.

"Jamal is obviously a multi-talented guy," Pelini said. "He's receiver first, but we're working him some at quarterback. Kind of the same plan we had with him during the spring."

On the injury front, Pelini listed senior offensive tackle Marcel Jones and day-to-day, while freshman lineman Givens Price will miss an extended period of time with a leg injury.

The Huskers will return to the practice field for their second practice of fall camp on Sunday. Check back to Huskers.com for updates on the Nebraska football team, as they prepare for their season opener on Sept. 3 against Tennessee at Chattanooga.

You mean, the quitters that ran away because they could not consistently beat OU or TX??

"Mommy, I'm tired of winning once or twice a decade!". I quit! WWWWWWAAAAAHHH.

Yeah right.

Get your facts straight.

Sounded pretty straight to me, n00b.

This should go over real well.

Its ok man

Why confuse reality with fantasy?

We've had this discussion numerous times.....OU and TX beat NU far more times that visa vesa.

Your Cornhuskers ran away because they couldn't win enough at the adult's table.

Truth hurts, huh?

Its not the reason they left, but ok, think what you wanna think

The question is, will the Huskers even finish in the top half of the Big (whatever the number is now)

ROFL :evil:

bundle of sticksgy Nebraska thread is bundle of sticksgy.

I know it's not the only reason ($$), but it is still fun to play with the NU fanatics. :)

They are such simple creatures.

They'll with that Hero's trophy, dammit! Go Legends!

That is the lamest shit I've ever heard of, btw. Oh, and they can't count past ten for some reason.

It's well documented that Nebraska was always the lone voice of dissent in the Big 12. They always thought they were getting screwed and were a vocal minority (of one) that was never pleased. I have little doubt that they wanted to get out from underneath the UT thumb, but don't think leaving had much to do with their inability to beat them on the field. Hell, they're not even going to come close to competing in the Big 10.

Their fans are an insufferable collection of delusional whiners. I'm honestly glad to see them go.

Frazod approves of this target

ROFL

Dellusional Cornholer is dellusional.

Free edit.

Typical corn fed NU coed.

Look at that stomach and saggy upper arms. In five years, she'll be 175lbs, wearing stretch tights and shopping at Walmart! :)

Is that what you noticed while jerking your lil pud.

Nice comeback...

Your mother wears combat boots!

My expectations aren't quite as high.

Is this a new credit card?

I wanna see Bubba Starling come to Nebraska just to see the boards reaction. "I see the Huskers putting the Big 10 money to good use."

I opened this thread expecting it to be about OU.

So will the Cornholers finish in the bottom half or bottom quarter of the big 10(?) this year?

Your mother has hairy legs too?:Lin:

****.


That photo reminds me of how badly that team choked against A&M. They would have prison raped Tennesee or Florida St. in the National Championship.


:facepalm:
