Roy Manning’s Pocket Control Push | Nebraska Cornhuskers Football News
Description
Roy Manning’s no-nonsense edge coaching philosophy is all about squeezing the pocket to force sacks, and he’s bringing that intensity from his San Diego State days to Nebraska, where his old squad racked up 19.5 sacks while the Huskers only managed 22. Manning’s demanding approach is already paying off with players like UCLA transfer Anthony Jones, a reliable leader, and five-star recruit Williams Nwaneri, who needs to dial up consistency. Manning’s goal? A deep rotation of at least six edge rushers who can consistently pressure the QB — even Mac Markway, a converted tight end, is showing promise. This isn’t just about sacks — it’s about building a unit that dominates the pocket from the start.
