And there is this. Perhaps the Ziggy issue is overblown.
As for the running back position, Nebraska has given the ball to only two this season -- Bryant and junior Mikale Wilbon, who has five carries for 23 yards and two touchdowns. Another junior, Devine Ozigbo, has to be ready, Riley said.
"All three of them have improved from a year go," Riley said.
As for Ozigbo, "Our thought is whenever Devine is called upon, he'll play well," the coach said.
Riley also said true freshman Jaylin Bradley, who has saw action on special teams, "will train as one of the running backs this week."

From the article, it appears they've done a full 180 on the rotation thing. If Wilbon produces, he will get the carries. If Tre's knee is a go, he will get the lions share of the touches.

Good God I agree with towel-boy. Now I need a shower. Only in Nebraska is the 3rd running back in the plan a concern after that **** show.

I watched Riley's Monday presser, and full 180 on rotation sounds like a good description to me.
