IS ANYTHING FUCKING SACRED IN THIS WORLD ANYMORE!?!?!?

If I remember right Bobby wasn’t real happy here after he got benched for Crouch. I thought he was throwing shade at Solich and Nebraska after he graduated? Anyone else remember that or was it someone else?

I wish Riley/Frost era didn’t kill Nebraska. So much harder to recruit to N right now.

 

[Goskers07]

Were we even really recruiting him? I don't remember his name getting thrown around much if at all.

Probably not…but there should be outrage none-the-less.

Thought he had another kid who walked on here? But maybe I'm mis remmbering

There was…. It got Frost fired for crap like this. Letting legacy recruits get away without a fight. That is unless Bobby steered him completely clear of Nebraska due to his experience here (see my earlier post about Bobby being unhappy here). I choose to blame this one on Frost. He and his merry band of misfits caused a LOT of damage for the program.

He has never had much attachment to the program after graduating. I agree.

I'm outraged. I was team Newcombe ftr.

 

[Herbie]

Doesn’t his other kid play at ucla?

 

[Herbie]

I’d be curious to see a list of all 90s early 2000s players kids who committed to Nebraska or elsewhere and how they performed.

Is clesters son the went to sdsu and now a reserve wr in the nfl the best one?

 

[Papa...Football]

Daddy still butthurt Crouch beat him out, and won the fucking Heisman?!

Ftr, Crouch won the Heisman. Good thing you weren’t QB coach.

fwiw his older brother ended up at UCLA after Frost, being the Wile E Coyote tier Super Genius that he is decided to use his DB scholarships on *checks notes* Malik Williams and Koby Bretz instead of offering him.

if i recall from an article from that recruitment, Bobby seemed pretty positive about his time in Lincoln and was open to letting his kid go here if we offered but I don't think frost paid him much mind

Newcombe is currently a head HS corch in the Phoenix area and given the explosion of talent in that area and our current interests, maybe a guy Rhule should build a relationship with, if there are any hard feelings.

Didn’t Rhule already stop by and see Bobbie Newcomb when he was in AZ last year when he saw DR? Thought I saw a Twitter post about it, but could be wrong.

Newcombe could have won the Heisman too. How do you know he wouldn't have?

Newcombe was a better receiver than Crouch though so probably best lineup that way.

Plus he probably would have quit unlike Newcombe.

Lots of probablies and could haves there, lol.

I dunno, Crouch’s catch from Stuntz against the Sooners in 2001 was pretty spectacular and he showed amazing speed. Loudest I’ve ever heard the stadium.

His speed alone would have made for a decent receiver. He might have quit though.
