Manufactured star? What's that mean?
Home cooking boosted his stats. There were many plays when I had him buried and he got credit for tackles. Used to piss me off. "Jeff Jamrog on the takle," when it was actually "Jeff Jamrog on his backside, 7 yards down field."
Interesting... considering the guy lettered three times at NU and was a starter, after walking on. Or were the Huskers manufacturing him at that point, too?
Great coaching and a great Weight training program will get you that. I'm just calling it like I see (or saw) it. I was not impressed with him on the field.
