One of my favorites as well and extremely talented. He played like a man among boys at times.

He was a great player for us who doesn't get enough credit.

Outstanding player. No doubt about it. I always thought that he and Junior Miller, both from that same era, could star for any Husker team.

+1
They were both a generation ahead of everyone else size wise with how they played.

And can I just say that I loved those jerseys back then. Beats the hell out of what we are wearing now.

Met him a few times, always upbeat, so much living life. Last time I seen him he was working at the pack in Crete. Did he not lead the nfl in rushing one year?

Great player. Anyone know where he's at now and what he's done since college?

He past away.

2006 was his passing, heart failure I believe.

Jack Pierce got Andra for us out of Alabama. Andra started at RB as a true freshman and played like a real man. He was then moved to FB an era where the FB ran, caught passes, as well as blocked.

We sure as heck gave the ball to the FB more with 39 in the backfield........lol
