Dedrick Mills, Nebraska, Player News

Nebraska senior running back Dedrick Mills sought out Scott Frost right before the regular-season finale at Rutgers. There was a sense of urgency in Mills' voice. "I told Coach Frost, 'I ain't going to lie to you, this game I just need the ball," Mills s aid Tuesday. "He was already talking about the cold and how there wasn't going to be much of a passing game. I knew it was going to be more of a running-type game. "He even asked me what my favorite play was." Mills prefers the inside zone game. He wante d to test the middle of Rutgers' defense. The plan worked extremely well. He rushed 25 times for 191 yards in his team's 28-21 win Dec. 18 in Piscataway, New Jersey. It ended up being Mills' final game as a Husker. The 24-year-old Georgia native announce d Tuesday that he is turning his sights to professional football rather than returning to Nebraska and using the extra year of eligibility granted by the NCAA. The 5-foot-11, 220-pound Mills finished the season with 84 carries for 396 yards (4.7 yards pe r carry) and three touchdowns. He also had 12 receptions for 85 yards. - Lincoln Journal Star

Dedrick Mills, the new Nebraska running back who already has NCAA Division I playing experience, continues to impress his teammates, and now it comes after four days of official fall practice. A transfer from Garden City (Kansas) Community College, Mills has two seasons of eligibility remaining. He rushed for 1,358 yards and 19 touchdowns last season at Garden City. He was the No. 1-ranked junior college running back according to 247Sports. In 2016, Mills rushed for 771 yards and 12 touchdowns in nine g ames at Georgia Tech, capping the year with a 31-carry, 169-yard performance against Kentucky to earn MVP honors in the TaxSlayer Bowl.Husker defensive lineman Darrion Daniels has been impressed with Mills. "Mills gets it done," Daniels said after practice on Monday morning. "I had a little pent-up aggression against him the first day because we were in helmets and that's it, and he was running through the hole like we got full pads on. That's the type of intensity we need for the defense to get better. And him running hard forces all the other running backs to run hard, and so when you got running backs running hard you got linebackers having to push harder, too, and it's like a domino effect every time somebody steps up their level of intensit y." - Lincoln Journal Star
