In the season's third "Through Our Eyes" installment, wide receiver Samori Toure describes his transition from Montana to Nebraska and gives his assessment of the Huskers as they get set to embark on the 2021 season.

Transferring to Lincoln meant not only getting acquainted with a different coaching staff and 100-plus new teammates, but also adjusting to the jump from to FBS-level football. 

He says he feels good mentally and physically, and he likes "where the team's at right now. ... I feel like everything's all coming together at the right time."
