Easy XMAS gift of an autographed new Husker book (Rozier and/or Murtaugh). But let me say it is an excellent Husker book. And yes, I'm biased.
I co-authored "If These Walls Could Talk" with Jerry Murtaugh and Brian Rosenthal of the LJS. It is 20 profiles of Devaney era guys like Mike Kennedy/Alvarez to Rozier to Wilhite to Carriker to Ameer. There are numerous stories and photos in print for most likely for the first time.
---"Canadian Jeff" fleeing north b/c of Coach Corrigan in mid-1960s.
---Devaney coming out at Murtaugh at 2am and the coaches holding him back with Murt yelling "Let him go"--lol
---Why Jim Pillen kept holding the ball for the ref to see at end of 1978 OU game?
---"Paying rent" in the varsity locker room in the late 1990s.
Here is a recent review from Amazon:

Love this book. As as a true Nebraska fan this book contains humor, stories you can't find anywhere else and will educate you about the Cornhuskers. Great read and gift! So happy Amazon had them in stock.
If you have any interest, an autographed copy from Rozier and/or Murt can be purchased through me. Look at my screen name for Facebook or message me on HuskerOnline.
