Congratulations to Eric. Completes the hat trick of Husker Heisman winners. Here is the list of all 19 Huskers in the HOF. I had the opportunity to attend the 2018 induction of Aaron Taylor. May have to make it back to NYC this December.

Congratulations Eric! From one Millard North alum to another! He is truly one of Nebraska's All-Time Greats.

He had the agility to make you miss in a phone-booth:

Could absolutely TRUCK-YOU-OVER:

The speed to fly right by you:

And was absolutely TOUGH-AS-NAILS:

Tom Osborne on when he was recruiting Eric Crouch back in high school:

"The thing that really struck me about Eric is that he was so much stronger than you would have thought. When I was recruiting him in high school and watched him in the weight room, it struck me that he was lifting amounts of weight that would have made an offensive lineman proud. He was really gifted and his skills fit Nebraska very well." - Tom Osborne

Rather famous (in Nebraska) non-call by the official who was looking straight at that face mask grab.

Biggest missed call in a football game that I've ever seen.

What about the two illegal blocks ("clips") in Johnny Rodgers' punt return in the "game of the century" against Oklahoma?  Those non-calls resulted in an erroneous TD.

lmao .. just kidding .. sort of.

First game I remember seeing, But I don't remember that return being questionable..Even with today's rules..

Crouch was a stud.  He should have been elected to the HOF long ago.
