Every Husker ever.
These are the players who built Nebraska football.
 
Looking at RB prospects, I find Jamari Peacock's film very intriguing. For a big guy to cut and get up field quickly, it's a thing a beauty to watch. A bit Dan Alexander-ish. Doesn't have top end speed, but with his burst, pass catching and potential to pass block with his size, he could be a great every down back in Riley's offense. I'd be super stoked to see us pick this guy up.

Bonus: seems he played a little bit of DE/LB late in his film clip too..

His Hudl film:
