Should Tom Osborne lead the team out of the Tunnel?

[ladyhawke]

Saturday is Tom Osborne's final home game as AD at UNL. WOWT asked this question: Since this is Dr. Tom's last home game as UNL AD, should he lead the Cornhuskers out of the Tunnel on Saturday? What do you think?

Hey why not .............. The guy is a legend and this is his last Home Game as an Employee. If coming out first is bad form how about last .......... About 5 seconds after the team hits the Field have shot of Tom coming down the tunnel then out onto the field. The place would go nuts.

And give him a headset

He's the AD, not the coach. No

Once a coach, always a coach.

Once a coach, always a coach.

And our Greatest coach!

So YES, give him a headset one last time. Hell, let him call a play. If he did, it would probably be fullback up the gut.

 

[RedNLeader]

Why not let him guide the players out onto the field? The coach did so much for our program, and sure give him the head set one last time and send him out right!

As much as I appreciate Tom and everything he's done for the University, I feel like it would heavily overshadow the seniors. I don't think Tom would want to do that.

Look for something at halftime...not pregame !

 

[Mierin]

I don't think it's something he'd be willing to do, but I'd like to be wrong.

God this needs to happen. Definitely would be the loudest non-game moment in Memorial Stadium

 

[darkhorse85]

The fan in me thinks it would be pretty cool but knowing how humble Dr. Tom is I doubt it happens.

 

[True2tRA]

I don't think it's something he'd be willing to do, but I'd like to be wrong.

Me too.

After 500 games, he can do whatever he wants...though I think it would be awesome!
