Go Big Read: Nebraska football special teams is a complicated project and other kernels

The Nebraska football team is working to set its special teams units and other Huskers kernels in this morning’s Go Big Read.

Nebraska football assistant coach Jovan Dewitt might have the toughest job on the staff. He needs to try and put together a special teams unit out of thin air. The good news is that DeWitt seems to know just how tough this job is.
