The Nebraska football team began week three of spring practice on Monday with a 2 1/2 hour workout in helmets and shoulder pads inside the Hawks Championship Center. After finishing last week with a scrimmage, the Huskers went back to situational drills on Monday and will resume scrimmaging later in the week.
NU offensive coordinator Shawn Watson spent time discussing the Husker receivers following practice and said that he is happy with the progress shown at that position during spring drills.
“The thing that jumps out as far as our receiving corps is that we’ve got a really good bunch of receivers,” Watson said. “They’ve got speed and size and they are just explosive players, like (Maurice) Purify. And you see young guys coming along like Menelik Holt and Will Henry. There have been several guys in that unit that just strengthen it.”
