Commentary

Shatel

There could be a quarterback 'situation' next fall. Look for Brion Carnes to push Taylor Martinez

Sipple

Turner's quick emergence … is a welcome development for an offense that isn't exactly loaded with explosive and proven playmakers.

Neeley

Will the young guns we saw in Lincoln Saturday be there when the lights come on in the fall? They have to be for this offense to be formidable.

Ryan

It's something that I myself have preached year after year. It's the Spring game. It means nothing. But I actually disagree this time.

I haven't seen Turner throw the ball, but he'd have to be Peyton Manning-like to convince me that he belongs at quarterback.

Here's what I saw: A haphazard three-hour practice with parameters that seemed to clash with each other.
