Lincoln, Neb.- The Nebraska football team continued its 2015 Fall Camp Tuesday morning, as the Huskers practiced for just over two hours inside the Hawks Championship Center. The Huskers were in full pads Tuesday, on another rainy day in Lincoln.

Nebraska head coach Mike Riley met with the media following practice, mentioning that the running back position is filling in nicely, and has really shown some valuable depth so far during camp. A few players that have been standing out lately to Riley have been senior Imani Cross, redshirt freshman Mikale Wilbon and true freshman Devine Ozigbo

“It is looking deeper and better to me. I think Imani has lost a lot of weight and I think he is handling that really nicely—it is really good for his body because he is a big guy anyway. He has lost some good weight and it has helped him maneuver and play better,” Riley said. “I think that Wilbon has really elevated his game since spring ball, he is much more knowledgeable and has made some plays during our camp.”

A defensive newcomer that has been standing out to Coach Riley has been freshman linebacker Dedrick Young. According to Coach Riley, Young is relatively quiet but very intense and most importantly, Young has the ability to learn quickly and perform consistently.

“Dedrick Young had the benefit of graduating early and getting here in the spring, it has made a major difference and it’s probably good for us,” Riley said. “He is making a major move, at this time he is obviously not redshirting and getting ready to play.”
