I watched a little bit of the 2nd half of the Nebraska/Washington game on Saturday. Being a fan of good offensive line play, I noticed one of their linemen just working people over. One play that stuck out was when Nebraska was inside the UW 10 and the guard drove the D-lineman about 8-10 yards off the ball, deep into his own endzone.

The announcers started talking about him and he is Korean, didn't move here until HS, knew nothing of football, played a few years in HS, then walked on at Nebraska. Said he can bench 450 and is considered the hardest worker on the team.

I did a quick google on him and his photo had me laughing.








Good on him, though. I like stories like this. Maybe Nebraska will open up a recruiting pipeline in Korea for other linemen. :laugh:

Won't ever be a tackle because he didn't have the vision.

What makes you say that?

I think they jobbed themselves by giving up 51 points and pulling stuff like this...
