The Nebraska tight end discusses leadership and more in a five-minute video feature.
In the 2021 season's second "Through Our Eyes" installment, Nebraska tight end Austin Allen tells how an injury in high school allowed him to become a better leader.
Defensive back Marquel Dismuke, wide receiver Samori Toure and quarterback Adrian Martinez comment about Austin's motivating the team both vocally and by example.
Austin discusses the qualities of Nebraska's wide receivers, including Toure ("very fluid") and Omar Manning ("pure athlete").
Austin, a fifth-year junior from Aurora, says he draws motivation from the people of Nebraska: "We owe it to the state to give it our all because the state has given it all to us."
