Huskers Continue Fall Practice and Two-a-Days

Lincoln - The Nebraska football team practiced for two and one half hours Friday morning at the Ed and Joyanne Gass practice field outside of the Hawks Championship Center before preparing for another practice Friday afternoon. The Huskers practiced in full pads and it was a practice that Head Coach Bo Pelini said he was happy with.

"I thought it was good tempo," Pelini said. "I think we are getting better in a lot of areas, I really do. I'm seeing progress."Pelini also spoke on the possibility of a scrimmage in the future and when it might happen.

"It's coming," Pelini said. "Yesterday afternoon was the first day we were allowed, by rule, to tackle so we scrimmaged some yesterday. We will scrimmage a little bit tomorrow. Little by little we are easing into it."

Pelini noted that Jermarcus "Yoshi" Hardrick returned to practice after missing the past few days.

"Yoshi is back out there," Pelini said. "When he initially had the cramping, we couldn't get the fluids and we couldn't get an IV in him. But he is fine and doing really well."

The Huskers will continue on the practice field Friday afternoon for their 8th practice of fall camp.
