Steven M. Sipple: Husker QBs' summer itinerary buoyed by pep talk from Crouch

Nebraska offensive coordinator Danny Langsdorf last week noticed Eric Crouch showing people around North Stadium.

Langsdorf wisely seized an opportunity, asking the all-time Husker great to address NU's quarterbacks.

"Eric told them a story about his battle with (Bobby Newcombe) and how it didn't always go his way early on," Langsdorf said Wednesday. "It was a great story about continuing to help out and be a great teammate. That was how Eric said he became a better leader -- by how he gelled with the line and other guys on the team by having a good attitude and continuing to work.
