Husker spring ball on hold as Big Ten suspends all team activities through April 6

Nebraska spring football is likely on hold after the Big Ten on Friday morning suspended all organized team activities through at least April 6 in the wake of a global novel coronavirus pandemic.

The move comes one day after the Big Ten canceled all remaining winter and spring sports events, essentially halting the conference's athletics for the remainder of the academic year. The league also placed a moratorium on recruiting activities "for the foreseeable future."

Now, with organized team activities on hold for at least the next three weeks, it appears all but assured that Nebraska will not be holding spring football practices for at least that period.
