  • The College Football Hall of Fame Upon His Retirement After the 1997 Season
    CORNHU THIS IS NEBRASKA or more than a century, the legacy of Nebraska Football has been growing. From its humble beginning in 1890 – when two games made an entire schedule – to 2008, where an established, nationally prominent program enjoys a rich history of success, Nebraska’s student-athletes have entertained and excelled on all levels. Five national championships and F43 conference titles highlight the accomplishments of one of college football’s most storied programs. There have been Heisman winners and Outland Trophy recipients, a nation-leading number of Academic All-Americans, a Big 12-best graduation rate and many professional football stars. But underlying all of the countless accolades is a football family that does not rely on wins and losses as the fi nal indicator of excellence. Nebraska Football is much more than talented athletes and coaches taking the fi eld to play a game – it is a family. The fans, support staff and student-athletes are all Dedicated to Excellence through Integrity, Trust, Respect, Teamwork and Loyalty.
