First of all get to six wins. The Huskers need to 3 weeks of bowl practice for next year.
IF/when NU gets to six wins, SF should hang a blank depth chart in the locker. Then he should tell the team, I don't care who you are, where you came from, how many "stars" where after your name or what grade you are in..........give me 22 guys who want to play football. I am going to start anyone with "want to"...........I would rather lose with guys who are football players than go .500 with guys who play football. Let me restate that gentlemen........ I am going to start anyone with "want to"!!!!
I have seen or watched tape of over 1000 football games, been on the sidelines for many. "Want to" wins a helluva a lot of games. So do football players...........against Minnesota Wandale was the only football player Nebraska had.
What is a "football player"? It starts with Butkus & Nagurski and goes on with Lambert, Lott, Ditka, Hines Ward, Jack Youngblood, Csonka etc.
Kenny Bell was a football player, Terrel Farley, Wistrom, Peters, Tomich, Rathman......just to name a few. A football player will play anyone, anywhere, anytime in any conditions and will try to destroy the will of the other team. I believe it was Jared Tomich that said "Every man has his breaking point, and we are going to find his" about Danny Wuerffel. and they did.
If you don't subscribe to Tomich's theory.............clear out your locker. End of story.
