knapplc Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 April 18th, 1996. That's the day Brook Berringer's plane crashed, ending the life of a promising young NFL prospect, and a Husker hero. RIP, Brook. Quote Link to comment

Nexus Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 R.I.P. Brook. Video of Brook on T.O. Show after defeating #2 CU in '94 + huskers.com article. Quote Link to comment
Apathy Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 I still can't believe that Brook is gone. He had so much talent and heart to lead any NFL team to the Super Bowl. I've read his mothers book One Final Pass about 20+ times and it still doesn't get old. Quote Link to comment

huskeraddict Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 R.I.P. Brook. I think it's time that we retire #18. He deserves his name up on North Stadium. Quote Link to comment
knapplc Posted April 18, 2011 Author Share Posted April 18, 2011 I'm guessing that won't happen simply because he didn't accomplish as much as those guys on the field. I think the unique situation of being the only player to have a statue at the stadium will be Brook's only legacy. And that's one heck of a legacy, if you think about it. Quote Link to comment
Touchdown Tommie Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 He does deserve to up in North Stadium not only for this football success, but as a person. He is what being a Husker is all about. I know he has the statue with him and Coach Osborne and the award, but he really deserves to be up with the other Husker greats. RIP Brook...you will never be forgotten! Quote Link to comment
