Will Farniok working to join brother as a player on Nebraska offensive line

Will Farniok

Will Farniok is the first of the four college football-playing Farniok brothers from Sioux Falls, South Dakota, to follow their brother to the same college.

Oldest brother Tom played at Iowa State and Derek at Oklahoma. Then Matt came to Nebraska, and two years later, Will followed him to Lincoln.

Now the two youngest brothers are spending the spring football season working to earn one of the jobs playing on the Husker offensive line. Will, a redshirt freshman, is a center. Matt is a junior and a returning starter at tackle.

“He’s my older brother, and it’s been pretty cool to be able to do that,” Will Farniok said.
