[Husker] Recruits

[j j]

Yeah but when you have a coach who is remembered for being a crappy coach who cares. BC is only remembered because of what happened in Oakland and how he took NU to rock bottom. He has been all over ESPN this season and esp. lately for getting fired. Other wise I doubt anyone would know who he is. I had no clue who he was before he started coaching at Oakland and wish it had stayed that way.

guys who just finished playing 8-man football in Nebraska that are 
available. (sarcasm intended)

Seriously, I have to agree totally with Bob on this issue.  While nearly 
everyone in my area (Metro East, St Louis) has heard of Callahan, not as 
many remember Tom Osborne, and very few have heard of Bo Pelini.  Only the 
die hard college fans have heard of him or anyone on his staff.

Besides Kreikemeier and Cotton, does anyone know of ANY players that have 
been recruited (verbal commits or nearly commits) since Callahan was fired?
