Nebraska true freshman quarterback Tristan Gebbia impressed coaches with his work ethic during the spring, closing the season with a strong performance in the Red-White Spring Game.
Although it's been widely assumed that redshirt freshman Patrick O'Brien would be the Huskers' No. 2 quarterback this season, he hasn't locked down that role, NU offensive coordinator Danny Langsdorf said following Thursday's practice at Memorial Stadium.
Asked whether there's a clear-cut No. 2 quarterback based on what he's seen through 10 preseason practices, Langsdorf said, "Ahh, not totally clear."
"I think those guys, being as young as they are, they make rookie mistakes," the coach said.
