[QUOTE=White's Husker teams played the run very well. But I think it had less to do with White's scheme as it did with having Ty and Nash anchoring it. AMEN!!! If they had those two this year, they'd have an elite defense.

And probably most notable...Gayle Sayers to KU.

Subic Bay, P.I. 1969, we were out of Vietnam for R & R. Joe N., Jerry Wright, Jim Otto, and Marv Fleming had been visiting the troops and needed a ride to Clark AFB to fly home. Our XO met them in the O Club and offered our helo if they would have breakfast with the sailors and marines on the...

I would have rather had FSt win and Mlaml lose. But Texass lost...yahoo!!! I don't know how many of you watched Navy/Air force, but that was a terrific game with two talented dual threat QBs. Of course, Navy won...

I know arm length is an advantage for DL, in order to keep the OL from getting hands on them, where as, the OL keep hands inside the shoulders and in close to the body grabbing the jersey of the opposing DL if possible. Thus, arm length would not necessarily be an advantage for OL. But then, I...

No, but TV was... :tongue0015: Also, I believe the scoreboard was manually operated by hanging numbered cards to indicate the score.

I'm not going for one-ups-man-ship here, but I saw my first game in Memorial stadium 75 years ago. It seated 33,000 back then.

It helps if they are all rowing in the same direction for the same purpose...

I read somewhere back when he first came aboard that he had behavioral problems at his other football stops. Was wondering then if signing him was a good idea.

I ended up picking the old Scout board (now it's morphed into Huskers 247) because I thought the people I found posting there (Mrjfb, Crazyhole, HuskerMo, DarthHusker, and others) would be fun to post with. A little off the subject, I also came over from the old Scout board (and all of its...

1973 Bowl game, NU vs ND. Johnny Rogers 4 TDs, 3 rushing, 1 receiving, and another passing. Absolutely proved he was indeed worthy of the Heisman Trophy. There was a NU vs UCLA game in the 80's, and I can't remember the QB, but he threw 5 TD passes to win the game because of UCLA loading the...

Count Wayne Meylan in that group.

I may have misinterpreted something, but it looked like Steele ranked NU ahead of USC in the conference ranking, but USC ahead of NU in the national ranking. If what I observed is true, it doesn't give me much confidence in his ranking system.

Fumbler, I have to go all the way back to Bill Glassford toget my all time favorite - Bobby Reynolds, and first favorite Tom Novak. Out of the loop pretty much until the Devaney years, but then Bob Brown and Frank Solich. Osborne is tough because so many, but Gerry Gdowski and Mike Minter...

When it comes to ‘buddy hires,’ Satt is like a son to Rhule. We’re all human and when adversity hits, there’s a natural tendency to circle the wagons and go down fighting. That’s what Bill Callahan did with Cosgrove. But Rhule knew his first priority was winning and he made the unprecedented...

Nah, you are still a kid at 70. Fossil starts about 90, and I'm getting close. BTW, Happy Birthday, Fumbler!!!

You may have inferred that, but that is not what I said. TO won several conference championships before 1994. Other factors may be involved, but to be a high quality coach there must be championships....IMHO.

A high quality coach is one that wins championships....so, NO.

You guys had just Riley and Frost. I had them AND Glassford, Clark, and Jennings. :)
