You'll be able to add Baker Steinkuhler to the list after next year. Where is Andre Jones and Marlon Lucky?
"We play to win Championships. If you don't win a Championship it isn't a successful season." Bo's comments during fall camp 2011.

"We didn't win a championship but it isn't always about winning championships." Bo Pelini responds after finishing the regular season 9-3 and a third place finish in the Legends Division.

"We don't point the finger around here we point the thumb." Bo Pelini responds after another sluggish offensive performance. Not sure which game since our offense is always fucking awful.

"I think we can be real stout against the run, and I think our secondary is going to be really good. I mean, there's potential for us to have our best defense we've had here." Carl Pelini assesses the 2011 defense during spring ball.

"We played sloppy." Bo Pelini responds following 2009 TT, 2009 ISU, 2010 SDS, 2010 A&M, 2010 Holiday Bowl, 2011 CHATT, 2011 Fresno ST, 2011 Wisconsin, 2011 Northwestern, and Michigan 2011.

"We didn't execute." Bo Pelini following the 2012 Capital One Bowl.

"Next year if we don't play for the National Championship I'll probably be pretty disappointed." Taylor Martinez's comments following the conclusion of the 2011 season in which NU lost four games by an average of 19.75 points.

So Baker won't start next year? Or is he transfering to a lesser team for playing time?

Baker should have stayed on the O-Line. I never understood the move to d-line.

Running has an uncanny ability to mellow the soul, to take the edge off hard feelings, and put things back into healthy perspective.

Always with the negative about NU.

Tripe.

Old, weak, tired, tripe.

Yeah, Lucky was a complete bust.

I-back Marlon Lucky concluded one of the most productive all-purpose careers in Nebraska history with a solid 2008 campaign. The 6-0, 215-pound Lucky finished his career among the top 20 in school history in rushing, while ranking in the top five in receptions and all-purpose yards. The California native was a play-maker for the Nebraska offense since his true freshman campaign in 2005.
Lucky finished his career with 2,393 rushing yards to rank 17th on Nebraska’s all-time rushing list and his 1,019 yards in 2007 was the first 1,000-yard rushing season by an NU back in three seasons. Lucky also caught 135 career passes to rank fourth on that career list, while his 75 receptions in 2007 is a Nebraska season record. Overall, Lucky played in 50 career games with 29 starts and his 4,214 career all-purpose yards ranks fourth in school history.


Oh, and you're a moron.

Oh, and you're a moron.

Some impressive stats that were inflated by NU's change in offense back in the mid-00's. Care to tell us his signiture moment as a Husker? IMO, for a guy that was a top 13 overall player out of high school to not be considered a bust there has to be that one signiture moment when you looked at the TV and said "Man, did you see what Marlon Lucky did!? Shit, we couldn't have beaten _______ without Marlon Lucky."

Good luck.

Bust.

Oh, this is a new one. Now you have to have a signature moment to not be a bust?

How in the fuck do you come up with this shit?

4th in all purpose yardage at NU. Ever. All-time.

Not a bust for anybody but an NU hater.

Not a bust for anybody but an NU hater.

So he's not a bust but nobody can actually pinpoint a game when he took over the game? How about the game where he scored the winning TD? He's a runnning back so when did he go for 150+ on the ground?

Anything?

I don't even remember him scoring a meaningful TD in his career. I just remember him losing his starting job to Brandon Jackson as a sophmore and missing much of his senior year due to injuries.

I think he had twenty-seven yards against USC in 2006. Amazing. Lets retire his number and induct him into NU's HOF and hang his jersey next to Coop's idol Barrett Ruud.

I'm trying to hijack this thread with conversation and pictures that are more helpful to NU's success at football. Please help by shutting up.

Just asking a question.

Do you remember a time where Marlon took over a football game? Scored a meaningful TD? Bust or not for a guy that had 4k in all purpose yards it just didn't seem like he did anything noteworthy in his four years at NU.

"We didn't execute." Bo Pelini following the 2012 Capital One Bowl.

"Next year if we don't play for the National Championship I'll probably be pretty disappointed." Taylor Martinez's comments following the conclusion of the 2011 season in which NU lost four games by an average of 19.75 points.

Lucky threw a TD Pass to Mike McNeill. One more than Harrison Beck and Curt Dukes combined

EDIT: That was the one I remembered, in looking it up, he threw 4

Keep in mind also, that Lucky was battling for playing time in a 3 RB system and a pass happy offense. No one is saying he's the greatest of all time, but he wasn't a bust

A little research would tell you that Marlon went for 3 TDs in a game twice in his career, holds the Nebraska record for most receptions in a game and went for 233 yards and 3 scores against Nevada on a team that went 5-7

Again, not spectacular, but hardly a bust consdidering Roy Helu was also on that team (and plays Sundays now)

Boxie, you lost the argument on Lucky. Give up. If anything, you seem to want to impress upon us that Stars mean nothing, when we all know that is all you care about.

I guess he wasn't a bust. I just couldn't remember him doing anything of note in his four years at NU. But he played most of his career during the Callahan years so there was only so much he could accomplish anyway.
"We play to win Championships. If you don't win a Championship it isn't a successful season." Bo's comments during fall camp 2011.

"We didn't win a championship but it isn't always about winning championships." Bo Pelini responds after finishing the regular season 9-3 and a third place finish in the Legends Division.

"We don't point the finger around here we point the thumb." Bo Pelini responds after another sluggish offensive performance. Not sure which game since our offense is always fucking awful.

"I think we can be real stout against the run, and I think our secondary is going to be really good. I mean, there's potential for us to have our best defense we've had here." Carl Pelini assesses the 2011 defense during spring ball.

"We played sloppy." Bo Pelini responds following 2009 TT, 2009 ISU, 2010 SDS, 2010 A&M, 2010 Holiday Bowl, 2011 CHATT, 2011 Fresno ST, 2011 Wisconsin, 2011 Northwestern, and Michigan 2011.

"We didn't execute." Bo Pelini following the 2012 Capital One Bowl.

"Next year if we don't play for the National Championship I'll probably be pretty disappointed." Taylor Martinez's comments following the conclusion of the 2011 season in which NU lost four games by an average of 19.75 points.

I just remember Pat Summerall fucking brutalizing and overusing his name during his Cotton Bowl commentary. "He wasn't lucky that time!" "Lucky got lucky there!" You held on way too long, Pat....way too long.
