Post-Spring Game Quotes (April 22, 2023)
On Defensive Coordinator Tony White's scheme
“I played against Coach White when I was at Georgia Tech my freshman year when he was at Syracuse. I knew all spring it was going to be a battle because his defense is really good. He threw a lot of looks at us. That’s only going to make us better on offense because we see a lot of looks that we will probably see in the season.”
On the Husker crowd
“It was amazing. I ran out there and was like ‘man this feels like a real game.' It was crazy to see that many people show up to a spring game. That was really one of the big reasons why I came here because on my visit they said the fans were crazy and I know that was something I have always wanted to experience."
On how the other quarterbacks have pushed each other
“Heinrich (Haarberg) is a workhorse. He’s big, physical, strong, and can throw the ball. He’s definitely been working hard. All the quarterbacks have. We’ve been feeding off each other and pushing each other. I think that’s something that has helped us a lot throughout the spring. Helping each other out, pushing each other, competing. I think that always drives us to be better."
