[Husker] Making the Blackshirt something more than a jersey color

[Mike Jaixen]

Neil Smith, Broderick Thomas, and Marvin Sanders are trying to teach the Husker defenders the meaning and history of the Blackshirt.  Over the last couple of years, it devolved into merely meaning just the starting eleven on defense.  

Smith, Thomas, and Sanders say it used to mean much more than that...and they are teaching the NU defense the tradition behind the Blackshirt.
