Most popular recruit in the history of Husker Board
- Thread starter CatColumbia
- Start date
What about Kendall Bussey? He was going to win a Heisman here before he flipped to LSU.
Rocky Hinds was going to lead us to the West Coast promised land.
Where in the F is Santino Panico?Where the hell is Mason Wald?
How about Tommy Zbikowski.
Tommy Z is a poll option. That's who I voted for.
Santino is now a vegan living in NYC and was only a 2 star recruit. If only had he removed those bricks from under his cleats..
What about that other QB right around Zbikowski time that also chose Notre Dame over Nebraska. He accomplished next to nothing there. Anyone with a better memory than me?
This is the exact reason I don't even bother following recruiting. Half of them decommit. Half of the ones who do probably won't even finish their careers here. I'll take a gander on signing day and then move on. But watching a bunch of 17 year olds change their minds a bunch of times isn't exactly fascinating.
Yep Carlyle Holiday burned the board.
Lucky. I was one of those idiots who thought Callahan was going to do good things. I was excited to land a 5* recruit.
Suh caused quite a stir. Who was the D end from the Pacific northwest. Odiziwezi or something like that. He committed, de-comitted, left us in the mix then went elsewhere. Very similar saga to Wandale. Lots of threads and pages about him.
Definitely Marlon Lucky. A 5-star running back with the name "Lucky" sent Husker nation into such a frenzy it resulted in a collective orgasm.
His film was insane - he was a heat-seeking missile!Where the hell is Mason Wald?
I can't believe nobody has brought up the guy that really lit the board up. Moose Buzzard. Only the old timers will remember him.
Recruiting is weird. Middle aged men trying to relate to 16 year olds, you run out of stuff to talk about pretty quick. listen to Calipari talk recruiting these kids

Calipari is legit. One of the good guys in college basketball. I have no problem seeing that guy win titles.
Probably a minority here but I love Calipari. He’s got a swagger about him. 80% career win percentage speaks for itself. And don’t anybody throw the 2 vacant final fours crap at me. Those situations could have happened to any coach.
"Santino is now a vegan living in NYC"
Why is nobody surprised?
That's what happens when vegans are allowed to return punts.
So surprised how nobody is mentioning Josh Freeman. When he decommitted, this board was in flames.
I’m going off all the hype I remember on this board during the year they were recruited.

Is this anywhere near the All-Time message board hype list that you all remember?
