[Husker] Recruiting

[Andy Knipp]

Depends on the service, though they are national, many have a regional bias,
Lemming loves the Midwest kids, Bobby Burton Texas, and SuperPrep loves CA.
One of the classes had 3 of the top players in the position according to
Wallace, Tommie Frazier, Riley Washington and Lawrence Townsend.  Townsend
never lettered, Washington did but was not spectacular. Tommie was Tommie,
enough said. 

There was also mention of Aaron Graham, but you were thinking of Aaron
Taylor. NU had to beat out SMU and New Mexico State for his services.  Being
(maybe) 6-1, most schools would not even talk to him.

But only the 1990, 1996 and 1997 classes were top 10.  So the bulk of
the juniors and seniors who contributed to the 1993-1997 run (60-3 with
3 national championships, take that, Les Miles!) were from classes 
that were not Top 10 classes.

What schools usually had top 5 classes by most of the experts 
in the early 90's?  Notre Dame, Miami and Texas, most likely.
