Pelini said his young linebackers "are in another galaxy than they were a year ago, but with a long way to go."

Defensive ends Randy Gregory and Greg McMullen were among a few D-linemen who stayed late after practice Wednesday to run through a some drills. Gregory’s always carried himself with confidence. McMullen seems to have developed some of that as well over the offseason. “I know the system. I know what I’m doing,” McMullen said. “I’m much more comfortable. I’m confident. I’m ready to go.”

Pelini said Jordan Westerkamp hit his head on the turf during Monday’s practice, so the sophomore receiver will be held out of workouts through Thursday. It’s a three-day evaluation period. Standard procedure, Pelini said.

Steven M. Sipple ‏@HuskerExtraSip 22mFrom what I saw, Jamal Turner took no snaps at QB at #Huskers practice.

It was probably because so many message board folk complained about it. I mean, you KNOW what kind of effect message board folk have on this football team, right Sipple?

I heard on the radio that Josh Mitchell has been a real leader out there, holding others accountable and not afraid to speak up. Awesome to hear. I like this guys attitude.

Loved it against UGA. He plays much larger than his size. What NU really needs. Said he started this spring with some good old trash talking.

Keep the updates coming. I enjoy reading what is going on instead of the re-hashed BS! Thanks.

Let's just say Alex Lewis' motor runs hot. He's going to play through the whistle, at least.

Think about Lewis and senior Jake Cotton on the left side of the #Huskers offensive line. I personally like that thought. Tons of fire.

I like that the injured #Huskers (Alonzo Moore, Moudy, Danie Davie and Corey Cooper) stay very engaged in the practices. Especially Davie.

Armstrong pitching to Abdullah on a traditional option play harkens to another era. Armstrong has a great gift in that regard. #Huskers

The battle is on for starting center job. #Huskers junior Ryne Reeves spent ample time with 1s today. Mark Pelini has experience edge.

According to Sipple while ZoMoore isn't practicing full speed he must be at least doing drills.

"Alonzo Moore hasn't practiced full-go yet this spring because of a shoulder issue. But he looks very close to full speed."

It was great to see Jamal Turner fielding punts in practice. I'd like to see him get another chance at that job. #Huskers

There can't be too many #Huskers with more upside than LeRoy Alexander, #Huskers sophomore safety. Size, strength, athleticism, want-to...

A 2* who's only other offer was Toledo...and who some didn't think he could play here.
