LINCOLN, Nebraska — He looks the part of a quarterback. Tall. Powerful. Fluid.
As he takes reps on Nebraska's practice field a little more than two weeks before the team's season opener against Akron, his spirals are snug, every throw landing where it's intended.
Unlike the other QBs on this mid-August day, though, he's not wearing a green no-contact jersey. Instead, he is outfitted in a red Nebraska hat, black shorts and a black shirt with "DAY BY DAY" etched appropriately across the front.
If it weren't for the differences in wardrobe, Scott Frost might be able to pull this off.
