Did you know that Turner Gill played baseball at Nebraska? This was news to me. I feel like his might be something that most Nebraska fans already knew but maybe it depends largely on the age demographic.

Turns out he was good enough to play minor league baseball and was drafted twice by MLB teams. From Huskers.com:
Gill was a skilled baseball player who played three years of minor league baseball in the Detroit and Cleveland organizations after his football career at Nebraska.
