Spring Game notes: Huskers work run game in second half; Honas injury ‘doesn’t look good’; Manning coming on | Football



Frost said NU doesn’t have an official diagnosis yet. 

Honas suffered a torn ACL midway through the 2018 season and missed the rest of the year. He played well down the stretch last year and opted to return to Lincoln for a fourth year after a two-year stint in junior college ball in Kansas. 

“Will’s been a just awesome teammate and I care about him so much, so it really hurt me to see him down on the ground on Wednesday,” Frost said. “Doesn’t look like he’s going to be ready for the start of the season and we’ll see where it is beyond that.”

Redshirt freshman Nick Henrich did not play Saturday, leaving junior Chris Kolarevic and sophomore Luke Reimer as the starting inside linebacker pair. 

Manning coming on: Nebraska fans got their most extensive look at wide receivers Samori Toure and Omar Manning.

Toure is a transfer from Montana, while Manning only appeared in one game in 2020.

Toure had three receptions for 47 yards, while Manning had three catches for 24 yards.

Toure feels good about what he and Manning can do.

“Me and Omar have actually gotten pretty close. I love the guy,” Toure said. “He’s just starting to have a handle on everything. He’s getting the playbook down more, and he’s just putting in maximum effort all of the time. You can just tell he wants to be great. I’ve heard things about last year, and I don’t know what happened, but from what I’ve seen Omar wants to be great, and I think he can be.”
