Husker Legends Weekend - February 22nd

Isn't Jerry Bush the grandfather of former ISU star and current coach Fred Hoiberg...perhaps a little bit of irony there.

Jerry Bush, c. 1959

 

Probably about as close the 'Clones will ever get to inclusion in the B1G. ((shrugs))

Anyone know of anyone selling tickets for this game?   I'm trying to get 3 for the game

Throwbacks in the house!!!

Those are sweet. Must be from the Jerry Bush era from '54-'63.

Nailed it, Auroran

Here's betting the shorts ain't quite that short!

Nooooooooo, we want the short shorts or it ain't throw backs.

I agree. They ain't real throwbacks unless the short satin trunks are worn. They show off the contours of the leg so well. And will make it easier to study the hyperbendability of Moses' knees.

Also have to have the long snap front warm ups with the pants. Does anybody but Indiana still have warm up pants?

Also have to have the fake belt buckle on the shorts.

Who said anything about 'fake'?  We need to wear the real thing.

I bet the language was cleaned up a bit for that practice!

That is really cool. Great to see families getting to be there with their former Husker dad to see how they were BMOC. Back in the day.

Randy York article about Jerry Bush

I wonder what our past legends thought about our effort today?

That's Kenny Bell in 50 years.

My favorite part of Husker Legend day is seeing that Wilson Fitzpatrick is still around.

I wonder what our past legends thought about our effort today?

Especially with how that 1st half concluded. ((gulp))

Thankfully they were all down in the tunnel getting lined up during the final 3.5 minutes of the first half, right when Iowa was on their 21-2 run.
