Those are not his PR times. Sometimes you only need to run fast enough to just get the win. What I found for PR’s. I’d say this is why he received a Nebraska Track Scholarship. 100m - 10.78 200m - 21.70 LJ - 23’ 10.5” TJ - 48’ 10” Quote Link to comment
Stumpy1 Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 This kid has speed to burn and will be a great addition to the team. His first sport is track and football is an added bonus. Quote Link to comment
huskered17 Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 Nebraska had 40 yrs of greatness using the walkon program, under Bob D and Tom. Some great players came out of them. Let's hope we get it rolling again. This kid just might be the next good one. Scott sees something in him. One question, will he be able to practice with the team, being on a track scholarship ? GBR!!! Quote Link to comment

He was so great at Chadron State, and I think he would have done awesome and earned a scholarship in no time. Granted, Billy Callahan May have had other ideas. I’m sure there are parts of the story I don’t know. 1 Quote Link to comment

BIG ERN Posted December 24, 2019 Share Posted December 24, 2019 Solich wasn't fired until December of 2003....Woodhead would've already finished his SR season of football. Solich nor Bill gave him any sort of looks. In fact, I would blame Frank more since Bill wouldn't have much of a clue that late in the game to get him. Quote Link to comment
