Football Continued from Page 7 y to Turman and Frost, both Osborne and offensive line coach Milt Tenopir said Taylor would be fine at center. “It’s going to take a little time to get ironed out,” Osborne said. “Aaron’s built well to be a center, so I think he’ll work out well.” Tenopir said the idea to move Tay lor to center as Graham’s backup oc curred to him during fall practice last season. But since Graham was able to complete his senior season injury-free, Taylor was never used at center. Shortly after the Huskers’ 62-24 Fiesta Bowl win over Florida, however, Tenopir decided moving Taylor to cen ter was the best decision for the offen sive line. “He was a logical move there sim ply because of his savvy,” Tenopir said. “He picks up things very well and is a smart guy. He's very quick and he can move, but he’s just a good player.” Taylor said he finally agreed to make the move after he realized it would be good for both him and the team. Last season Taylor led the Huskers in pancake blocks, averaging 11.64 per game while the Husker offensive line paved the way for a nation-best 399.8 rushing yards per game. “Nebraska does have a great tradi tion at center,” Taylor said. “It’s just a situation where I felt I could help my self and^my team. If I go out and play as good as I can, there won’t be any drop-off.” NOTE: •The pre-spring depth chart lists Jared Tomich and Grant Wistrom’s positions as left rush and right rush for the first time. The spot, which has been re-defined since Nebraska switched to a 4-3 alignment three years ago, was formerly known as outside linebacker.

Tulane Continued from Page 7 per game, scored only 12. In the quarterfinal win over the Bulldogs, All-WAC guard Kendric Brooks scored nine points, 10 fewer than his 19.7 average coming into the game. Now the Huskers have to contain Tulane’s All-Conference USA forward Honeycutt. Honeycutt averages 18.1 points per game and is averaging 21.7 points, nine rebounds and five assists per game in the NIT. Taking care of the basketball, Coach Danny Nee said, and contain ing Honeycutt would be keys to win ning the game. “At this time of the season we just have to be fundamentally sound and take care of the ball,” Nee said. “The last time we faced a pressing team, we had 30 turnovers, and if we have 30 turnovers, it’s not going to be much of a game.” Nee was referring to Nebraska’s game against Texas. In the Jan. 3 con test against the Longhorns, the Husk ers committed a season-high 30 turn overs, but still managed an 85-69 win. Playing at Madison Square Garden may force Nebraska into some turn overs. In the Garden, the Huskers are 1-3, its lone win a 76-67 overtime de cision over Arkansas State in the 1987 NIT consolation game. The Huskers are 0-2 in semifinal games, losing to Southern Mississippi in 1987 andDePaul in 1983. Marshall handed Nebraska its other loss in 1967. Since making the NIT, four seniors have been the catalyst toward putting Nebraska in the semifinals. Together, Tom Wald, Terrance Badgett, Erick Strickland and Boone have averaged 52.3 points per game in the NIT. Wald (11) and Badgett (11.3) are averaging double figures coming off the bench. Junior Bernard Gamer has helped out the seniors, av eraging 10.7 points per game. “The seniors are playing great and have done an unbelievable job,” Nee said. “They have taken it to another level.” qgjgjgi: i vnhifc jt» 1 r: j: 1996 Cornhusker Marching Band Auditions for New Members April 13, May 4, June 1 and June 8 First round playing auditions consist of a prepared solo (your choice of music), sight reading and major scales.
