Nebraska’s new single-digit leader explains why the Huskers are ready to level up
Jordan Prather-Imagn ImagesDane Key has already been singled out as a leader for the Nebraska football team thanks to earning a single-digit designation. Earlier this week, he showed how he's going to be a leader both on and off the field when he talked about why he believes Husker head coach Matt Rhule is about to drag the Huskers' program to the next level.
The Kentucky Wildcats transfer, who will wear No. 6 this season, has talked about wanting to be a leader for Nebraska before. He is walking the walk as well as talking the talk as fall camp winds down and the Huskers start to officially prep for their first game against the Cincinnati Bearcats on August 28.
