gbr93 Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Saw a little teaser on 247sports that a psychology book is being passed around throughout the team. Anybody have a little more info or anything? Quote Link to comment
onlyHskrfaninIL Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Hope they paid full price for it. We don't need any more "scandals". 3 Quote Link to comment

The Maudfather Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 This is how you get put on NCAA probation. I'm sweating bullets, hoping it's not one of those "recommended textbooks". Quote Link to comment
gbr93 Posted March 29, 2012 Author Share Posted March 29, 2012 I think I saw somewhere that the book is called "the mental edge" which I'm guessing is not a textbook for any class. Most likely just a book someone bought and thinks everyone else should read as well. Who knows Quote Link to comment
GSG Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 I think this is it: Â Â I lent it to the team from my personal "For Dummies" collection Quote Link to comment
95huskers Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 if the players gain a competitive advantage, the Nc2a might come knocking............ Quote Link to comment
mitch7 Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 It is a book that Burkhead read and it is now circulating through the team. Quote Link to comment
Enhance Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Maybe I'm just slow today, but I'm confused as to the point of this thread. Quote Link to comment
gbr93 Posted March 29, 2012 Author Share Posted March 29, 2012 Sorry, just wondering whether anybody knew anything else about it. Let's be honest, there isn't much else to talk about anyways. Quote Link to comment
HuskerShark Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 if the players gain a competitive advantage, the Nc2a might come knocking............ Â It's true, because everybody knows that as soon as a person reads a psych book, he/she can instantly lift twice as much weight, run the 40 in half the time, and become impossible to be tackled.

Â It's true, because everybody knows that as soon as a person reads a psych book, he/she can instantly lift twice as much weight, run the 40 in half the time, and become impossible to be tackled. Â I've read 4 psychology books and I can now bench press nearly 600 pounds and run a 40 in 1.8 seconds. Oh yeah, did I mention I only weigh ~ 140lbs? Quote Link to comment
girlknowsfootball Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 Â This is the book. Burkhead bought it, read it, some other guys on the team saw him reading it... they look up to him and thus wanted to read it because he was reading it. So now it's making its way through the team... some guys went out and bought copies of their own, so there's a few circulating around the team. Quote Link to comment
kchusker_chris Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 we had a german foreign exchange student when I was in high school. he was about 5'9", 145lbs. he set a good chunk of the schools weightlifting records. he was just a freak of human being when it came to strength. he was always preaching something about lifting being mental, etc. i'm still weak, but give me a 12-pack and i'm the strongest guy in the bar. i think that's what he was talking about.

I still don't understand. Are we worried that the book is illegal to circulate through the players? Quote Link to comment
