get huskin! Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 Damian Jackson. Navy SEAL. Walk on Husker. Man killing, meat eating, blood-lust Husker MACHINE. Where is he??? If anyone on this roster know's the Scott Frost mentality of work hard / play hard, eat THRU your opponent, play til the third whistle, eat guts, it's GOTTA be this kid. Did he play in 2017? 1 Quote Link to comment
Moiraine Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 He recorded no stats in 2017. http://www.huskers.com/ViewArticle.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=100&ATCLID=211597942 He had never played football in his life before walking on, and we know nothing about his athletic ability. It's possible to have great measurables for football but not be good at football. If he didn't play it's because he wasn't good enough. Maybe he will be before he graduates. 4 Quote Link to comment

ScottyIce Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 He was a walk-on True Frosh. He is still on the team. Anymore brain busters? 4 Quote Link to comment

NUance Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 (edited) Not sure where that Navy SEAL guy is. But I'd be careful if you see any mud over by north stadium. Edited January 19, 2018 by NUance 2 Quote Link to comment
Nebfanatic Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 I thought he made his way on the field for a few plays blocking 1 Quote Link to comment
ColoradoHusk Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 Are people really counting on a twenty-something walk-on who has barely any football experience to make a deep impact on the team? It's a great story, and I appreciate his service as a Navy SEAL, but I wouldn't put him in the top half of the roster. 6 Quote Link to comment

I wouldn't think that people would expect instant contribution, however, i personally thought maybe he could single-handedly infuse some leadership and toughness into the team. Quote Link to comment

lo country Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 He has the ability to teach/show a "never quit attitude". In the days of participation trophies and kids believing they will immediately excel, his reality (IMHO) would be appreciated in the Frost locker room. 2 Quote Link to comment
BoNeyard Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 Everyone has a role when they are apart of a team. I don't think his role has much to do, or at the least not expected, to be on the playing field. I think his hard work and his mentality will shine under Frost and this current coaching staff. 2 Quote Link to comment
