[Husker] Thoughts on Today

[jon johnston]

Being on a kick return is all about the willingness to sacrifice your  
body, running full speed down the field and running into other guys as  
hard and as fast as you can. Great for game day, really dumb in  
practice - if you lose a guy to that kind of injury during a spring  
game or a scrimmage, it would be pretty stupid.
