Thought this old article from TIME magazine Monday, Nov. 07, 1960 might give all some perspective of where Nebraska has been.
Here are quotes from the article: "In its recruiting competition with the Big Eight, the Big Ten operates under one severe handicap: its prospects must go through the indignity of proving financial need before they can get a full scholarship."
AND
"Out of this flurry of activity the Big Eight this season has produced at least three players who can butt heads with any in the nation: CJ For Iowa State, Tom Watkins is a lightweight Negro fullback (6 ft., 182 Ibs.) who can run the 100 in 9.8 and fill in at tailback in his team's old fashioned, single-wing attack."
