Shields not yet practicing with Huskers

Nebraska coach Tim Miles said senior forward Shavon Shields is still experiencing some health issues related to his concussion and hasn't yet practiced with the Husker men's basketball team.

Miles said Friday at his news conference he was to meet with Shields again after practice. Shields has conducted workouts but not practiced.

"It's day by day," Miles said.

Nebraska (14-13, 6-8 Big Ten Conference) hosts Ohio State (17-10, 9-5) on Saturday.

"He must be cleared by the athletic trainer, doctor "and his mom" before returning to action, Miles said.

"He would have to go through some practices to where they feel confident and he feels confident he's ready to go it.
