Nebraska Football Spring Preview: Wide Receivers
| Photo by Steven Branscombe/Getty Images Who ends up starting on day one? Your guess is as good as mine. Full of potential and promise. Short on guarantees. That is how I view the wide receiving position room going into spring football. The leading returning pass catcher in terms of total catches is Levi Falck with 13 catches. The leading returning pass catcher in terms of total yards is Zavier Betts who had 121 yards on 12 catches all of last season. Not ideal. There is... |
