RedRedJarvisRedwine Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 So with the signing of Josh Banderas whose father played in the 80s, along with Will Shields boy playing for the BBall team, I got to thinking. Conceivably in the next 5-10 years our players from the 90s will have teenagers reaching college age. If you could have just one legacy recruit from a 90s player, who's kid would it be! For arguments sake, let's say the kid is every bit as good as their father. Also, does anyone else wonder why we didn't get more of these legacy kids from the 70s and 80s players?

RedRedJarvisRedwine Posted February 12, 2013 Author Share Posted February 12, 2013 Wistrom, Farley, Mike Brown Good list. Already breaking the rules speed! Just one. I'm racking my mind to remember if we had any franchise LTs in the 90s or if we just had solid guys. Thoughts Quote Link to comment
ADS Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 If I had to pick just one, then Wistrom all the way. Quote Link to comment

Thought about him too but I'm pretty sure he was a right tackle. I'm looking for a dominant LT. Quote Link to comment
dylan Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Left tackle. Zatechka played right. Quote Link to comment
RedRedJarvisRedwine Posted February 12, 2013 Author Share Posted February 12, 2013 Left tackle. Zatechka played right. A second-team All-Big Eight selection on the field as a senior, playing alongside Outland Trophy winner Zach Wiegert and first-team All-Americans Brendan Stai and Aaron Graham (1995), Zatechka helped lead a dominant rushing attack that led the nation with 340 yards per game on the ground, while ranking fifth nationally with 477.8 yards per game in total offense. He started every game at left tackle as a senior, including Nebraska's win over Miami in the Orange Bowl in 1994. Quote Link to comment
dylan Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Weigert, wilks, graham, stai, zatechka. Pretty memorable group. Quote Link to comment
dylan Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Alright, I had the tackles flipped, but you thought zatechka was a guard Quote Link to comment
RedRedJarvisRedwine Posted February 12, 2013 Author Share Posted February 12, 2013 Alright, I had the tackles flipped, but you thought zatechka was a guard I actually had him in my mind graduating later in the decade for some reason:( So I wasn't even remembering him. I like him but I just think our lines were about the unit and not the individual. The work of the units made it hard not to decorate them individually. I'm not sure we had that one guy that could carry the unit on his own. Weigert was probably closest though. Quote Link to comment
