LB has the least depth. He's the best player at his position !

Visitor

marice did just fine

Tim DuBay

He is by far the best linebacker! No offense to any of the other men, he is Terrell Farley like and could be Lavonte David like if he can get and stay healthy. IMHO

Jim Jones

tough call but VV has more experienced back ups

Matt Maxwell

He is the most physical Linebacker we have, in my opinion.

Jerry Williams

He is good and they have little depth.

all starts up front, win the line of scrimmage. Big V has to be the key ingredient

Dave Supencheck

Huskers need an up front charge to keep the QB from exposing the weak secondary of Nebraska.

Ladd Hubka

Jeff Green

Everything starts on the lines.

Billie Mann

Hoping he'll help with the pass rush when he gets back

Zachary Tasker

He can move the pocket

Feature back is important to have but DEPTH is also CRITICAL. If don't have a feature back then either then depth chart is flooded with talent. But in the Big Ten you better have a GREAT 2nd and 3rd string to make it through the season. With EJ it helped he was so quick he didn't take huge hits

Terry Barker

Nebraska was always most stable when we had a feature back that can actually "carry" the team with his legs.

Ron Joseph

Nebraska in the past was successful with one top back. We've fallen on hard times because we haven't developed or recruited a great back. But the others need to be developed so we have a pipeline of backs like we use to have.

Roger Craig & Tom Rathman ring a bell ? Not only a dynamic duo playing for NU, but also for the 49ers !! YES we want multiple RB’s to rotate in & out to keep their legs fresh!! GBR 🎈

Look at the success in the playoff, the teams have 2-3 capable RB's they use to keep them healthy and offer the D different looks. Johnson was unique, most backs can't take that many snaps a season and stay healthy and sharp.

PJ SAid

Every good team, including the NFL, will rotate backs on a regular basis. This last year Nebraska should have used a 2nd running back more often - NEB is lucked out EJ stayed healthy.
