TOM DIENHART
I ask Tim Beck who would start on o line today, he said Long and Cotton at G; Rodriguez, Sirles at T with Qvale working in; Pelini at C.

This d line unit was working together: Ankrah and Gregory at DE; Valentine and Curry inside. Gregory looks good. #Huskers

Tim Beck likes true frosh TE Cethan Carter. Can run. WR Kevin Gladney another true frosh staff likes. #Huskers
— Tom Dienhart (@TomDienhart1) August 19, 2013
Tim Beck told me Terrell Newby reminds him of Ameer Abdullah; Beck called Adam Taylor a "faster Imani Cross." Nice RBs in Lincoln. #Huskers
— Tom Dienhart (@TomDienhart1) August 19, 2013
John Papuchis likes his LBs. Says true frosh LBs Nathan Gerry and Josh Banderas have impressed and likely will play. #Huskers
— Tom Dienhart (@TomDienhart1) August 19, 2013
Papuchis likes Thad Randle up front at DT. A true frosh he says to watch is DT Maliek Collins. Big kid. #Huskers

Kenny Bell's hair is in midseason form. #Huskers http://t.co/q9CyHQoSQ3

Tim Beck says Tommy Armstrong and Ron Kellogg still battling for No. 2 QB spot. #Huskers
— Tom Dienhart (@TomDienhart1) August 19, 2013
Mauro Bondi is dueling with Western Ill. transfer Pat Smith, who told me staff has given no indication when decision will be made. #Huskers

GERRY DINARDO
BTN Camp Tour 2013 #Huskers Overall this is the most improved team talent and depth wise from spring that we've seen in 11 stops
— Gerry DiNardo (@gerrydinardo) August 19, 2013
BTN Camp Tour 2013 #Huskers Defense very talented, deep, young. D Line Gregory, Valentine, Curry ,Ankrah, Collins, impressive

— Gerry DiNardo (@gerrydinardo) August 19, 2013
BTN Camp Tour 2013 #Huskers UCLA game one of the most important games in recent years – great game to find out how good before B1G starts
— Gerry DiNardo (@gerrydinardo) August 19, 2013
BTN Camp Tour 2013 #Huskers They have the experience to reduce turnovers and talent on defense to reduce big plays and improve overall
— Gerry DiNardo (@gerrydinardo) August 19, 2013

— Gerry DiNardo (@gerrydinardo) August 19, 2013
BTN Camp Tour 2013 #Huskers Off talk about multiple -Spread,Pistol,Wg Tee like,Wishbone like – and on and on – interesting to say the least
— Gerry DiNardo (@gerrydinardo) August 19, 2013
BTN Camp Tour 2013 #Huskers In the big games TM has to beat them with his legs along with IB then pass. Tricky keeping TM safe until then.

DAVE REVSINE
At #Nebraska practice. Tough not to be impressed w OLine – as physically imposing a group as we've seen on our tour
— Dave Revsine (@BTNDaveRevsine) August 19, 2013
Doing walk through stuff now, so you can't read too much into it, but Nathan Gerry out there w 1st group of LB's
— Dave Revsine (@BTNDaveRevsine) August 19, 2013
Same disclaimer as before – but #Huskers 1st DL in team walk through – Ankrah, Gregory, Curry, Valentine
— Dave Revsine (@BTNDaveRevsine) August 19, 2013
DL certainly big enough physically – athletic as well. Youth is obvious concern. Gregory really looks the part. #Huskers
— Dave Revsine (@BTNDaveRevsine) August 19, 2013
Kellogg rotating in 2nd w QB's. Armstrong injury recovery could be a factor there. Love Armstrong's skill set. #Huskers.
— Dave Revsine (@BTNDaveRevsine) August 19, 2013
Haven't done team drills yet (when O goes against D), but component pieces of #Huskers offense all look very strong.
— Dave Revsine (@BTNDaveRevsine) August 19, 2013
Pretty clear from the way the #Huskers are rotating guys that Terrell Newby has a good shot at seeing the field. Can see why – smooth
— Dave Revsine (@BTNDaveRevsine) August 19, 2013
Bo Pelini said one if the most important parts of Martinez's development is the realization that "we don't have to score a td on every play"
— Dave Revsine (@BTNDaveRevsine) August 19, 2013
DC John Papuchis said they worked a lot on fundamentals to get D back up to snuff – tackling a particular point of emphasis.
— Dave Revsine (@BTNDaveRevsine) August 19, 2013
Kenny Bell talked a lot about his route running – said he can't rely solely on his speed when he goes up against best CB's.
— Dave Revsine (@BTNDaveRevsine) August 19, 2013
We asked Martinez about scrutiny that comes w playing QB for #Huskers – said it comes w territory – family has helped him a lot
— Dave Revsine (@BTNDaveRevsine) August 19, 2013
Despite lack of team drill, still pretty evident will be good #Huskers team. Legends race will be great w Neb, Mich, N'western, MSU
