Travis Vokolek, Nebraska, Player News
|
As he sat at a podium Tuesday on the Lucas Oil Stadium turf for Big Ten media days, Nebraska tight end Travis Vokolek was asked about the individual goals he's set for this fall as his final season of college football approaches. In the midst of discussi ng his focus on becoming a leader, he had an epiphany. "I'm like the oldest guy on the team," the Nebraska tight end said. "I'm 24! It's crazy." A bonafide starter with a show-stealing mullet and a 6-foot-7, 260-pound frame that screams Sundays, Vokolek has a chance to be a breakout player in the Big Ten.He'll need to be for the Cornhuskers and head coach Scott Frost, a program and coach facing a fork in the road. They went 3-9 last season, with all nine losses coming by single digits, and anythi ng less than reaching a bowl game would be a crisis in Lincoln. Vokolek is taking it all in stride. "There's noise every year, positive and negative," Vokolek said. "Something we just have been focusing on is that it's about us in the locker room and in the facility, it's not about what everyone else thinks." However the season goes, it is guaranteed to be Vokolek's last, marking the end of a long college football journey that began at Rutgers. He spent two seasons there, right in the middle of Chris As h's disastrous four-year tenure as head coach. - Star Ledger

Travis Vokolek's long wait is nearly over. The last time the Nebraska junior tight end played in a football game that counted, he hauled in four catches for a career-best 69 yards and a touchdown for Rutgers against Michigan State. That was Nov. 24, 2018 . On Saturday, 23 months to the day later, he will finally be back in action. This time, it will be as a member of the Cornhuskers' veteran tight end group. "It means a lot to finally be able to get out there with the guys and take on Ohio State," Vokole k said Tuesday. The Springfield, Missouri, native chatted with reporters for the first time since he signed with NU last summer. When he first verbally committed to the Huskers over Iowa and others, he said he wanted to be recruited by Nebraska out of hi gh school, but wasn't and eventually signed with the Scarlet Knights.Now he's got a chance to make an impact in Lincoln even though NU has senior Jack Stoll and fellow juniors Austin Allen and Kurt Rafdal back, too. "We're expecting him to come in and be a dominant force in the run game and a dominant force in the pass game, just like Jack Stoll and Austin Allen performed last year," tight ends coach Sean Beckton said earlier this month. Vokolek is listed at 6-foot-6 and 260 pounds and was known previously as mostly a receiving threat at the position, which the Huskers have been looking for more of essentially since Scott Frost took over the program. "When I first got here, knowing I was going to have to sit out, one of my goals was to really le arn a lot over that year and not waste that year on the scout team," he said. "So I was still doing the drills, footwork and stuff, really working on blocking and then route running as well. I think I've learned a lot over the last year and gained a lot from it." - Lincoln Journal Star
