It seems a safe bet Nebraska's tight ends will like Mark Whipple's way of doing things this fall.
They certainly seem to like their initial tastes of it.
"We're more pass-catchers in coach Whipple's offense," Husker tight ends coach Sean Beckton said Wednesday after the team completed the 11th of 15 spring practices. "There's more plays designed to get the tight ends the ball on certain plays."
Beckton said Nebraska tight ends are the quarterback's first read on pass plays more often than they were in fifth-year Husker head coach Scott Frost's spread attack. Frost hired Whipple as offensive coordinator in December, and the coaching staff is in the process of formulating a new system in time for autumn.
