Experience, plus I believe that Imani can break the big ones.

Jonathon Siminoe

I believe he will pound and he will be the guy for the 1st and 2nd downs.

Gene Baker

Imani is a senior, and a beast. Imani will get more carries but not by much. Coach Riley will get everything out of Imani and more. Imani is a great athlete and is physically more capable of carrying the team like Ammer did.

Dick Plock

He has a will to do it.

Craig Casper

He's better. Bigger, stronger.

Ruthie Patterson

he is a senior and runs better

Tim Moore

Newby has more big play potential.

Stew Price

More break-away ability, coaches will want big plays in the running game

Visitor

Imani runs to straight up and down. Might be a load but doesn't pick up the big yards. Terrell can break the big play and is more versatlile

Corey Jarabek

Cross has been shoved to the side right or wrong his whole career, and since Newby had more big play threat I see being the same

Stacy A Rodenbaugh

Speed. enough said.

Matt Maxwell

Newby is a big play threat. I really like Cross but he is not as explosive...should have been moved to linebacker a couple of years ago.

Corey Jarabek

Not linebacker he should be moved to fullback

Donald Lee

I'm including passes with the ratio.

Kevin Hamilton

I think he is a better TB but I think Amani would rule as a FB in this system, be on nice one two punch!

Nathan Turner

Riley's offense is more spread than power, more about speed and misdirection than North/South running. Cross could have more TDs, but not more carries.

If they are coming to NU "now". It can only help. Maybe run a "slanting" defense and catch them "off guard"!!! Stuff the "run"!!! GBR!!!

michael Gormley

Only one way to go…!!

Husker Man60

Only up from here. Good to have a system for a team and not just a few players.

PJ SAid

On the defense I think you will increased intensity, like 2024. The offense line coaching should have been changed sooner, at least Rhule got someone with experience and proven quality development & execution.

Robert Lloyd

Just not confident in Matt anymore. Why he makes millions of $ and has now had 7 coordinators and it's everybody else's fault and he keeps his job?. I've been a fan since the early 60s and now am more concerned about the program than ever before.

We have talent in the room. They will have the same learning curve that Emmett had. He was an average back at the beginning of last season and look how he blossomed. That said, if a solid back is available, take him of course

Bill Scheef

Nebraska is a 3rd Tier team in the BIG 10 and an after thought nationally and our expectations for recruiting should reflect that. With the powers in the BIG 10 nationally Nebraska's "good old days..." are just. Swept into the dust bin of what once was...Sorry, but...it's the truth as I see it.
