NUance Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 Has an ex-Husker ever been successful after getting kicked off the team, or transferring to another school? The Castille thing got me to thinking about this. Richie Incognito has had a decent pro career. But I can’t think of anyone else having much success in college or the pros after being shown the door, or transferring. Quote Link to comment

Glenn, we will never know... still a secret. hmmm, mostly QBs too... thats weird. Quote Link to comment

NUance Posted August 27, 2009 Author Share Posted August 27, 2009 Even LP—with world class talent—crashed and burned. Maybe the biggest bust of all. (Yeah, "bust" was a pun.) Quote Link to comment
Pedro Guerrero Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 David Horne started for Northern Iowa in a couple of National Championship Games. Zac Miller and Souder had pretty good careers at UNO as well. Quote Link to comment
default_28 Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 Andy Birkel was a good player for Northern Colorado. Probably not considered successful, but he managed to not get stabbed by the punter while there so maybe it was a success. Quote Link to comment
VA Husker Fan Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 Evans - bust Stella - didn't he do ok at UNO or somewhere? Go way back...does Tom Kropp count? Shortly after coming to UNL, he reconsidered and went to Kearney, and was All-America at both sports. He was drafted by the NBA, ABA, and NFL, and played a couple years in the NBA.

Glenn, we will never know... still a secret. hmmm, mostly QBs too... thats weird. Glenn is now playing LB in the NFL and has a 4 year contract...I'd say that qualifies as a success. To the point of the thread: DeAngelo Evans...bust. Terrell Farley...bust. Quote Link to comment

So I can understand why no success after NU. But Terrell Farley. Wow. Hard to believe a guy with so much raw talent did not parlay it into an NFL career. Quote Link to comment

Should Ronnell Grixby be on the list? if so, "busted" by the po-leece! Quote Link to comment

VA Husker Fan Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 condon- starting at USC I had no idea who you were talking about until I looked at USC's roster and found Jordan Congdon, with a g, a former kicker. Quote Link to comment

Rawhide used “Condon” because everybody hates the Congdon family. Quote Link to comment
