Nearly a month into voluntary workouts, it was unclear whether any Nebraska student-athletes had tested positive for the coronavirus because NU wasn't announcing data.
That changed Monday when Husker football coach Scott Frost talked to two local media outlets.
Nebraska has tested roughly 250 athletes and staff, Frost said, and there have been eight positive tests, including five football players and one football staff member.
Of those six members of the football program, two players and one staff member showed up in Lincoln from other locales and tested positive. Three other Husker players acquired the virus in the community.
