LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — Nebraska coach Bo Pelini has barred media from practices until Saturday.

Athletic department spokesman Keith Mann said Wednesday that Pelini didn't give a reason.

Media members aren't allowed to watch practices, except for the first 15 minutes most days. Interviews are conducted after practices.

Pelini's lockout came after Mann told media members this week to not use the open period of practice to compile injury lists.

Pelini has said he would be relating any injury news.

Several media outlets, citing eyewitnesses, reported Tuesday that linebacker Sean Fisher was taken off the field with a leg injury and that there were a number of fights at practice.
