TPB X thread

How did DONU both this ole boy’s recruitment?
I actually asked Gale that question about 10 years ago but can't remember what his whole answer was. I believe he was originally committed to ISU then us and later switched to KU. He did mention the pressure he was receiving from Husker fans as being a bit much. He appeared to be a pretty reserved and a very laid back person. I can see how he didn't like the spotlight and pressure. Super nice guy. If you didn't know he was an NFL great when you met him you would assume he was just some normal Joe. He did not want to be in the spotlight.

I got a chance to hang out with Gale & Paul Hornung for a bit one evening in Chicago. Very nice guys. Paul really struggled to get around as his body was shot but Gale was in good shape and didn't show any visible signs of physical problems from playing years of football. They are good friends.
