Congrats on a great season! Now kill it at the combine

Congratulations to Amba. And to Dino's scheme and ED and fellow delivery men.

Two decades!!! Two decades since the Orange have produced a Sporting News AA. That requires one heck of a lot of ineptitude for a college football program over a significant period of time. Guess that's what we lived through.

Hope we don't have to wait long for the next ones.

So, a fifth year transfer can work out well. Someone tell the basketball team.

Congratulations to A E-T. So often, he was a man among boys this year.

I wouldn't want to see what our hoop team would look like without White. How few pts would we score?

Freeney wasn't on the Sporting News first or second team in 2001? That is weak.

He was. Freeney was a consensus All-American.

The PS was wrong?! Can't be. Thanks Tomcat, I remember that Peppers got the most accolades that year but it made no sense that Freeney wasn't on TSNs team

We are trending upward. How long until our next Heisman?

Does that mean that McNabb wasn't a Sporting News All-American?

That's weird.

This is fantastic. Terrible terrible week for most of us basketball fans. This really made my day. Congratulations Amba. A definite, concrete positive step in our program and offense. F the non believers.

Tim Couch was a pretty good college QB. Just saying.

Hopefully Amba also does well in the draft - this will be a great example for future grad transfers to show them that they don't have to go to Alabama, FSU, USC, etc in order to get considered for national awards and to improve their draft status.

Now we just need to get the winning thing down and we'll be cooking with gas.

The craziest part about this post... is that it makes me realize that the last time we were OK at football Eric Crouch was playing and Nebraska was still great, still in the big 12, and still coached by Tom Osborne.
