Some Husker summer debates are better than others.
Please don’t ever get involved in the “Best Husker to wear number ?,” moronic marathon countdown, which seems to be prevalent annually on the information super highway just as the fireworks are going off on July 4th.
That one specifically is just dumb and a waste of time…but Mike Brown gets #21 over Roger Craig as it’s not about what they did in the pros, only as a Cornhusker.
And that leads us to “The best athlete ever to play football at Nebraska?”
We will go with modern era in 1964 with 2-platoon football with apologies to Tom “Trainwreck” Novack and Bobby Reynolds.
