With Nebraska’s record, I would think the investigation would be over really quickly. Clearly, there can’t be any cheating going on.

Zero tolerance for cheating… And losing

I have said it on here numerous times, the story of the hero returning home to coach their alma mater almost never works out.
Also, it’s not the 1990’s anymore and Nebraska is not a place most football players want to spend at least 3 years of their young lives.
I wish I could find a job that I could tend for 3-4 years, fail miserably, and walk away with $15-20,000,000.

Wasn’t one of the reasons the Huskers hated UT was because they made them get rid of their partial qualifiers once the Big 12 was made?
I don’t know all the detail specifics, but 97 would have been the time frame the earlier recruits from Big 8 would have been graduated out.

Yeah for all the talk of the vaunted walk on program NU feasted on partial qualifiers and they were huge components of the teams.
Texas fight and won to get the numbers of partial qualifiers down severely.
This called their probable decline. From Jan 15, 1996.
“On Dec. 20 the Big 12 presidents voted unanimously to
limit each school to four partial qualifiers per year (two men,
two women) and no more than one in a single sport.
Non-qualifiers were excluded entirely.”
“In the Fiesta Bowl, Nebraska started four partial or
non-qualifiers…and two others,…played almost as much as the starters. According to Nebraska officials there were at least 12 partial or non-qualifiers in the program last fall. “Among elite schools Nebraska is a true haven for partial and non-qualifiers,” said the coach of another elite school.”
