Its like Bubby Brister standing next to John Elway....
Tim Dwight standing next to Johnny Rogers....
- Thread starter Chief Wiggum
- Start date
He's the guy who everyone outside of Iowa watching the game is calling "some guy standing next to Johnny Rodgers"...
wow, you guys are seriously ignorant. Dwight had a great career in the NFL. 10 years. He's a class guy too, and never robbed any liquor stores as far as I can recollect. Please, learn a little bit about what you're doing.
Tim Dwight had a better NFL career than the other guy.
one guy returned a kick for a TD in a Super Bowl and one didn't
Jet won a Heisman. If Dwight so good why they feel the need to add Rodgers name to Dwight's trophy???
Falcons and Chargers for the majority of his career. Also played for New England, Oakland, and the JETS.
Johnny Rogers must have played when Nebraska football was relevant; that's why most under 40 years old don't know who he is. 
That was Tim Dwight?
I just figured Johnny was on weekend furlough and that was his PO.

I see your point but we are in the B1G now even though it has only been 5 years.
Johnny was better than both those two at returning punts and Kickoffs.
I think both of those guys would have loved to return kicks in the B8.
They could name it the Dwight/Howard Award!
Also, when he went to the pros, he left college as the best punt returner in Big Ten history. Broke the then punt return yardage and TD records. Two time All-American. He was in the Heisman talk his senior year before Iowa fell out of the rankings. He ended up 7th in the voting.
When Rodgers did it his junior year the conference finished 1,2 and 3 in the country at seasons end.
That has never happen again in College football.
Shows you how much you know about College football history.
I didn't know that.
Just like most posters in this thread don't know their B10 history.
And I never said Dwight wasn't a good player he was he was one of your best players in school history and I remember him well... But you never seen JR jet play 1970-73 UTUBE is your friend.
Very familiar with The Jet.
Some here wanted to glorify Johnny by tearing down TD.(good YouTube vids too)
Part of the reason why NU fans get a bad rap is stuff like this.
Think you're going to cake-walk to championships, print up championship tshirts, disrespect the league's history etc.
Not surprised hawk fans don't know difference between a gas station and a liquor store. Just so you know what your suppose to do at each, one's to fill your empty tank, the other to fill your empty skull.
