Not sure exactly what about Burch you don't like, he had a solid year last year and could easily be the best person to replace Enunwa. Especially his blocking, he also made some really nice, tough grabs. I think his next 2 years will fun to watch.

Burtch has a lot of Swift/Peterson in him. Not that blazing athlete that'll make sportscenters top 10, but man, the guy is reliable and plays his role.

And with all of our receivers hype, this is what we have been missing IMO. We need a receiver to be "that guy" who is a sure handed go to guy when we need a pass completed. Blazing speed is great, but I also like the guys who can read the coverage and sit on his route, make the first down catch in traffic and keep the chains moving. I hope he and Westerkamp can fill/excel in this role as well as the two you mentioned above. Throwbacks to guys like Steve Largent or Jay Novacek. Not blazers, but ran great routes with hands like glue.
Great receivers make an average QB look incredible. I hope that the two above as well as KB, Carter and Jamal really step up and improve that aspect (catching) of their game. It would easily make the difference in 1-2 wins next year IMO. And like the fumbles, has shown itself at the worst times.

Likely the biggest storyline at #Nebraska spring practices day one: JT at QB. More to come on @BigRedReport pic.twitter.com/S6srEsKXkG

WR Jamal Turner took snaps at QB today and will continue to do so throughout camp, Bo Pelini said after practice. #huskers

Pelini said #huskers coaches asked Turner. NU wants to explore more ways in which Turner's skills can be used.

Well first off, he was hurt 75% of last season.
I seriously doubt this is an every down type of deal, but more for a shakeup here and there. A wildcat type of deal. Just to see what he can do here and there to maybe cause a shakeup.

I like it. The guy, when healthy, is one explosive player. Throw him back as KR, PR as well. Get the ball to your playmakers. Also gives other teams something to game plan for.
The pull of the kool-aid is strong as always this time of year, BUT I like the open practices, this move and others showing Bo is growing as a coach.
