Damon B. brought up an interesting topic on 1620 the Zone this morning. He was sharing a quote by a former husker player who said, “We (Huskers) need to find a coach that can bridge the gap between the ‘glory days’ fans with the fans of today. Then he asked this question, “Why am I a husker fan? Is it because my parents were? Is it because I live in the state of Nebraska?
Is it because (for the young kids in our state) I want to be in the next Rex Burkhead?
For myself, I’m a ‘glory days’ fan. I am also a Tom Osborne fan.
What about you HB folks: Why are you a Husker fan. An even better question is this:
Why are the younger folks Husker fans? Most of them weren’t even alive during the glory days. Do what draws them to be Husker fans?
