  1. Never thought a thread I started would ever have gotten 10k views. Darn I miss sock puppet! At least he was darn entertaining!
  2. First Nebraska game ever. 1995. Nebraska home vs mizzou i had 50 yard line 6 row tickets!!!! I got to see Ahman Green boat race Mizzou. It was glorious
  3. Least that is story Balfour and appraiser told me separately
  4. 14 years ago I always dreamed of having a piece of Nebraska. I found a National championship ring for sale but was wary of a fake. So I called Balfour. Balfour confirmed ring was real and told me this story which my appraiser confirmed. Apparently the ring is one of Lance Brown wr rings. Lane would tell Balfour he lost a ring then get a new one made and then sell it on line. He did this 3 times. So if Nebraska 150 rings in 97 then that year they made 153. Balfour stated it was 100 percent same as all the 97 rings. Since lance did this the ncaa put in the Lance Brown rule where if u want to get ur broken or lost ring replacement you have to have athletic director permission. So my appraiser finds this out and tells me that essentially this ring is priceless because it can’t be replaced by normal person. All ncaa rings are with roughy 500$ in 10k gold but the intrinsic value of this ring with a National championship and the irreplaceable nature of it makes it more valuable. Like a misprint of money at mint.
  5. Trust me. He has already held it. After awesome awesome advice. And my son saying it will help him remember me when he is old. I’m gonna keep it. If if someone wants to hear the story of the ring. I’ll share
  6. I am now rethinking my position about selling it that I had yesterday. Good advice so far
  7. That’s an awesome post tg. Your right it is a piece of my heart. And don’t need the money. Just felt a lil guilty for having a toy per se that could maybe put to better use if liquidated. I am still on fence but leaning towards keeping it unless I was made an unbelievable offer in the future
  8. It does have a wonderful story. Told it once on 1620 unsportsmanlike conduct but had never shared story outside of family before that. It would be in thousands range. I love having it but it but feel a parental responsibility to despose of item for benefit of my child. It is cool to have though!!
  9. Hey all on the horns of a little dilemma. About 14 years ago I acquired my one piece of Husker memorabilia that I always desired. A National championship ring. 1997 to be exact. I loved the Huskers since I was in diapers and it was a dream item. Of course I was single and had disposable income. Now onto to my dilemma. Now I’m married, have a child and the ring sits in a safe deposit box. I bring it out maybe once every couple of years to show Husker family that haven’t seen it yet. Im wondering if it’s time to sell the item or hold onto it? As I said It’s in a safe deposit box and I’m wondering if the responsible adult thing would be sell it and take that money and invest it for my son. I’ve had my years of enjoyment and it has a great story attached to it. I don’t NEED to sell it but I have a gut feeling it might be time to pass on to another owner?
  10. Does anyone know why we haven’t named a new S&C coach yet? Is it because Zach is getting the UCF guys ready for bowl game?
  11. I’m N. Time to come together
  12. Forgot to add. I would have fired him after Minnesota game (but that’s why I’m not the ad) crow isn’t bad if u can handle the feathers as I swallow it down
  13. I would have fired him after Minnesota game. But I cannot deny moos results. Crow isn’t bad if u can handle the feathers going down.
  14. I didn’t say he had. Just was asking Hedley if there is a chance it’s signed and maybe sitting in moos drawer. We all have heard it’s a done deal via Lars, espn guy. So was wondering if Hedley sources knew yet
  15. Sure was!!! And you have zero clue he hasn’t or he wouldn’t. I have been wanting frost at NU for years and will feel better once his signature is onnpaper
