Nebraska Game

[Eastside Forever]

Our Gophers will be severely tested tomorrow night. This will be an extremely challenging game. I hope that can keep the score close and try to win in the 4th quarter. No doubt its a BIG GAME!!!!

How did PJ not recruit "Mr. Football" Emmet Johnson, from Minneapolis, who is now Nebraska's top runner, a pass catcher and an All-B10 Academic, and one of the best rushers in the B10? It took him awhile to mature, but his style is exactly what the Gopher running game needs this year. With their super soph QB and a running game, Nebraska should be favored by 10, but that depends on whether the Gophers can finally run themselves.

His whole recruitment was weird, Nebraska offered him very late. Gophers never did offer. I think he was really focused on basketball until his Junior year and didn’t do any camps. His HS coach has said the Gophers had some interest in him as a cornerback but had questions about his speed.
