https://nebraska.247sports.com/Article/Nebraska-basketball-takes-on-Mississippi-State-basketball-in-NIT-How-to-watch-116219987

 This season’s NIT games will be played under modified rules. The 3-point line will be moved back 1-foot, 8 inches and the lane will be widened from 12 feet to 16 feet. The 3-point line is the distance used in international competition, while the lane is consistent with the NBA distance. The teams will also play four, 10-minute quarters, and teams will shoot free throws each quarter beginning with the fifth foul. Finally, the shot clock will only reset to 20 seconds following an offensive rebound.

Nebraska head coach Scott Frost updated a number of injuries on Wednesday morning as the Huskers prepare to start spring practice on Friday.

Among the injuries Frost mentioned:

— Safety Jojo Domann and Luke Gifford are likely out with injuries for the spring. Domann is nursing a knee injury and Gifford has been set back by a hip.

— Outside linebacker Sedrick King has a chance to be back for the spring, but is questionable.

— Running back Tre Bryant could be back in a limited capacity in the spring after undergoing knee surgery in the fall.

— Centers Cole Conrad and Michael Decker are both questionable for the spring. Decker suffered a knee injury last season and Frost said he is getting close to returning, but likely won’t practice this spring.

Nebraska football begins its spring practice schedule on Friday morning with a practice before taking a week off for spring break.

Arizona graduate transfer quarterback Brandon Dawkins has been linked to Nebraska, according to ESPN.

The 6-foot-3, 210-pound Dawkins announced on Twitter last month he was leaving the school after getting his degree in May. He threw for 2,412 yards and 15 touchdowns and rushed for 1,582 yards and 20 touchdowns over three seasons for the Wildcats. He supplanted Anu Solomon as the starter in 2016 and was himself replaced as the starter this season by Khalil Tate. 

According to ESPN, Dawkins is visiting Indiana and Florida Atlantic in upcoming weeks.

There were some rumors he might follow his OC to Illinois too

MC: Living in the home of a head coach and knowing Coach Bo Schembechler personally, and being in the Woody Hayes and Bo Schembechler area, that’s what I understood college football to be like. It was fire and brimstone. But Nebraska was the Midwest. The true Midwest, not the ‘Midwest’ I grew up in. Being around Coach Osborne and the staff, Coach McBride was more of a rust belt guy, but just the whole atmosphere shocked me. How could you be good like this, you know?

Anatomy of an Era: Strong safety Mark “Zeke” Cisco found himself in a different world when he walked on at Nebraska instead of his home-state school, Michigan.
