“The best part (of recruiting) was all the dinners and food." NdamuKong Suh

Okay - I will never again be able to see Suh playing without thinking of this quote.

I met him during a pregame tour, he was getting his ankle taped up. It was the really bad game in 09 I think that we lost at home to Iowa St, 9-7, where we turned it over 8 times.... 4 times inside their 20.

the man didnt have a wrinkle on him, he was just chiseled out of granite it seemed. The rest of our players looked like teenage boys next to him in the locker room. He was a beast. He was very polite, and quite engaging with me, my buddy and his kid, he even volunteered to get a pix with us.

Suh was unstoppable in college! Flat out decimated Texas almost by himself. He had some really good talent around him. NFL talent and a lot of it. That 2009 defense showed me it can 100% still be done here.

This is a great observation. That defense was loaded with NFL talent.

I'd say over the last 30 years we've had more defensive talent come through NU than offensive talent. We do okay with running banks (Helu, Burkhead, Abdullah, Janovich) and occasionally get some OL drafted. But we've produced way more defensive drafts recently.
