John Parrella is sure he'll be able to tell in early August who on that Husker defensive line wants it most.

"If you're an NFL player and you go to practice and you just go home, you're not going to be worth a (crap)," the defensive line coach said Tuesday. "So guys have to work after practice, they've got to work pre-practice, they've got to work all summer. And you'll find out real quick how good someone is when they come back from the offseason."

It's perhaps no surprise Parrella's group was the last unit off the field after Saturday's practice.
