The Nebraska football staff is still “fighting” over the positions for some of the most talented players. That and other kernels in this morning’s Go Big Read.

As we head into the second attempt of a season opener for the Nebraska football team, it should be pointed out that the coaches are not set at every position. While there is a depth chart, it appears there could be big changes coming soon.

At the center of those depth chart changes is freshman tight end Cameron Jurgens. While he’s going to be playing TE for now, it appears as though Scott Frost and the rest of the staff are duking it out over where he might eventually move.

Read about that and other kernels in this morning’s Go Big Read.
