Heck of a recruiter, stocked the cupboard to allow Stoops to succeed early at OU.

 

[RChrisReade]

He could recruit really well. Obviously he had a mark on recruiting here also.

Guy could recruit.

 

[Suhrreal]

RIP I'm pretty sure he was the reason why Suh came to Nebraska.

Shook the man's hand once. Pretty soft hand shake. Nice rings though.

I shook President Ford's hand and it was soft and greasy. It's something that always stuck with me.

Don't want to take away from remembering Blake, but please help me out. Who in 2002 was better than Suh?

Weird phrasing... I'm guessing he is saying that we had Crouch in 2001, and that since 2002.. Suh is the best guy we've had.

Maybe he is referring to recruited players? From that time frame I think Demorrio Williams was a 5-star equivalent player that we recruited.

Chris septak was rated higher than Suh, but that was 2000. 2002 wasn't a stellar year for anything but early in that recruiting year Brandon Greeson was very highly rated. Dropped off dramatically during the season, but i can't remember why.

I honestly think that tells you something about a man.
