Young Husker quarterbacks already learning to live in the spotlight

If the next four weeks proceed the way Scott Frost hopes, the Nebraska football program will begin game preparations for Akron with a set starting quarterback.

Most Husker fans know the drill by now: Redshirt freshman Tristan Gebbia and freshman Adrian Martinez are competing for the job, as is sophomore walk-on Andrew Bunch.

Because most fans know the drill, and because there are a whole lot of fans, the young signal-callers have had a crash-course in learning how to operate as public figures.

“The most important lesson they have to learn is they can’t go anywhere in Lincoln or the state of Nebraska without everybody knowing what they’re doing,” Husker coach Frost said at Big Ten Media Days in Chicago.
