Redshirt freshman Austin Hemphill worked as a fullback on the scout team in his first year in the Nebraska program in 2015. The 6-0, 220-pound Hemphill joined the Huskers after a strong prep career at Gretna High School. Hemphill will enter 2016 in hopes of competing for playing time at fullback, a position where fellow Gretna product Andy Janovich excelled a year ago.
A proactive approach with Nebraska’s new coaching staff helped Austin Hemphill become the first player to accept a walk-on offer during Mike Riley’s tenure at Nebraska.
