When Nebraska cornerback Lamar Jackson appeared in the northwest tunnel of Memorial Stadium before Friday's game, tears in his eyes on Senior Day, my thoughts shifted to a hazy morning in Fremont in June 2018.
As Nebraska's football coaches fanned out around the state that day to meet the Big Red masses, Husker secondary coach Travis Fisher found himself in an automobile dealership showroom in Fremont. He gave about 100 fans a glimpse into his coaching mindset, telling the crowd how he goes about challenging players. He also said he's particular about whom he recruits to his group.
