well, we could discuss the rampant racism that has been in your program much more recently.
OK, lets discuss. Show me proof of any racism. All of the rules were the same, no matter the color of the skin. There were a few players that washed up and did not make the NFL make claims, but there was never any real proof.
Now the gun used in a felony by a player, it is well documented that Osborne had an assistant lock it away so that the player could play. 1994 I believe?
Lets bring back the good old days!!!!
Crime Capital of College Football?
Tom Osborne might have repaired Nebraska’s damaged image in two years since Lincoln became the crime capital of college football, but the thin line between sainthood and Satan, between right and wrong, can be breached in the matter of one weak moment.
How about Lawrence Philips:
Two years ago, Lawrence Phillips, a talented but troubled running back from a West Covina, Calif., group home, drove to a teammate’s apartment in the early-morning hours after a game, broke in and confronted a former girlfriend, basketball player Kate McEwen.
Despite the presence of 6-foot-3 quarterback Scott Frost, an enraged Phillips grabbed McEwen by her hair and dragged her down several flights of stairs.
How about Christian Peter?
But it was Christian Peter, an outstanding, 6-foot-2, 290-pound defensive tackle from New Jersey who further sullied the program’s image.
Peter was arrested five times from 1991 through ‘93 for exposing himself to a female student, urinating in public and failing to comply with a police officer’s orders, among other indiscretions. Despite the problems, Osborne played Peter because the tackle met his requirements after each incident.
