The Nebraska football team will practice in the morning throughout the regular season and fall semester for perhaps the first time in program history.
The move to morning practices was largely expected given its importance to Frost and his staff, but it still took extensive coordination and time to get all of the pieces situated in a way that worked, an NU football spokesman confirmed.
Frost has pointed out that if the Huskers finish Wednesday practice in the morning instead of the evening – typically the most physically intense in-season practices of the week are Tuesday and Wednesday – there are more hours for recovery before a game is played Saturday.
