Craziest Husker related football story you have heard?

I have always heard that "now" the LPD can't wait to bust football players where "back in the day" they would always let them off...I don't know when "back in the day" was but that is what I have been told.


Back in the day is whenever the team is winning and doesn't suck  :lol:

 
My ex mother in law, her best friend worked within the Athletic department  during the 90’s and she was in charge of the flights, hotels, etc. Her friend told me that she had to pick up Christian Peter from a Miami jail a day or two before the National Title game against Miami. 

She also told me that she would smoke cigars with Devaney all the time. 

 
Remember Scotty Baldwin?  His story got overshadowed by Phillips and others, but that was when cops looked the other way a LOT.  There were lots of issues in the 90's.


Is he the guy the guy that beat up a woman on a sidewalk during a psychotic episode? Wasn’t he buck naked too? 

 
Not so much a crazy story but I can remember when the skers sucked with BC in charge and then some of the players had their picture taken all dressed up for Halloween after a loss...and the message boards WENT BONKERS!

 
If the team stayed the night there, he'd be there the next morning/day without having to be "seen" going in or out except for when he leaves with the team.
Agreed.  I am just saying that I have never heard that version of it.

This is from the story in the paper

Two months later came a more serious incident. On Oct. 16, 2010, the morning of Nebraska’s showdown with Texas, Pelini contacted a Husker fan and summoned him to the basement of the team hotel. This man supported the program, but he’d also shared inside information on a message board. Pelini confronted him as the team waited outside on the bus.
