Farniok, Jaimes, work to improve while establishing themselves at tackle positions

In a sea of media after a recent practice that swarmed around players who will provide the flash this season — quarterbacks Adrian Martinez, Tristan Gebbia and Andrew Bunch and running back Tre Bryant — sophomore tackle Matt Farniok walked into a room at the Hawks Championship Center as unnoticed as a 6-foot-6, 330-pound man can.

He was so unnoticed, in fact, that after a Nebraska athletic department staffer announced his presence and no one initially responded, Farniok took a step toward the exit before a couple of stragglers finally made their way over.

Nebraska's offense won't go far, though, without improved play up front.
