Rapid Reaction: Robinson not in pads; NU not taking Maryland lightly; Terps defense athletic

Nebraska freshman running back/wide receiver Wan'Dale Robinson was not in pads Wednesday when the Huskers left practice.

Robinson was injured late in the game against Purdue, and was listed by head coach Scott Frost as a gametime decision for last week's game against Wisconsin.

Running backs coach Ryan held did offer insight into what role they envision for Robinson down the road. The NU coaching staff does not want Robinson to get nearly as many carries as he's gotten this year, Held said, noting that the freshman carried a heavy load out of necessity.

Held was unconcerned that Nebraska would take Maryland lightly, despite the Terrapins struggles since the start of the season.
