Nebraska offensive coordinator Marcus Satterfield is speaking out about the Husker offense heading into the 2024 season. One of the biggest talking points of the off-season has been freshman quarterback Dylan Raiola.
Satterfield was about the expectations for the Cornhusker quarterback as fall camp begins for Nebraska.
“All three quarterbacks, I haven’t really seen them. Coach (Rhule) really made us get away this year and let the players kind of take over. Last time I saw those guys in June, they had taken another step since the spring from throwing the football. That was an emphasis for us going into spring ball was throwing the football. They had a good June, and then I’m anxious to get back to see where they are. I obviously heard people talking about how all those guys are developing. Danny (Daniel Kaelin), Heinrich (Haarberg), and Dylan (Raiola). All of them had great summers. A great last three weeks especially.”
Nebraska’s offense needs to improve markedly this season. Last year, it ranked 115th in the nation in total offense, averaging a paltry 312.8 yards per game.
They also struggled in scoring offense ranking 120th overall and averaging only 18.0 points per game. Satterfield was also asked on how far ahead Dylan Raiola is mentally compared to other true freshmen he’s coached.
“I think it’s his work ethic the way he attacks it. He’ll stay up all night just rewriting notes and rewriting plays just to make sure he can call them in the proper cadence in the proper rhythm. He’s just obsessed with trying to be really good and that shows in the development thus far since he’s been here since January and I’m just anxious to see what it’s going to look like this week for all three of those dudes.”
