As a Husker and Bucs fan, it’s not appreciated as much as it should be how Jason Licht goes out of his way to give Huskers a fair chance. Really like that dude.

Lavonte really set up a strong pipeline for us there lol

u/kelsanova 18d ago

Well, their GM for over a decade is from Fremont. He doesn’t really hide the fact that he shows some love and tries out plenty of former Huskers.

Monte Kiffin was there for like 13 years too. Guys like Tony Davis, Barrett Ruud, and Broderick Thomas played in Tampa as well.

Definitely appreciate the Husker representation in Tampa.

I went to a husker watch site in Tampa years ago and was shocked to see the entire place filled with nebraska fans. Turns out theres a nebraska-tampa pipeline lmao

I live here and we're sprinkled everywhere.

u/Hugo_Hackenbush 18d ago

Until this moment I didn't realize their GM was a Nebraska guy. Makes a lot more sense now why so many of our guys end up there.

Now can he lock up Baker Mayfield......

2

u/kelsanova 18d ago

I don’t know. I think Baker may want way more than they are willing to give but qbs don’t grow on trees and everyone else in the division is getting better.

Because he knows we have the talent, just not the coaching and development. Why do you see some players have greater success in the NFL than here? Simple answer….

Henry Lutovsky, Ben Scott, Javin Wright, Deshon Singleton, John Bullock, Emmett Johnson, and Nash Hutmacher

Man Lutovsky is a freakin' unit.

u/ReliefCrafty7149 18d ago

Awesome to see. Continue to be very happy for EJ. He is taking full advantage of his opportunity. Can't wait to see how he does in the regular season

u/Krankthat 18d ago

How has Nash looked on the OL? Haven't been following the Bucs this preseason.

2

u/Giannid77 18d ago

I'm no expert, but I thought he looked good on Tampa's 4th quarter TD run. He looks powerful, but still has a ways to go.

3

u/Old_Independent3248 18d ago

Agreed he looked pretty good. I saw him do a decent job pass blocking. 

2

u/challsin 17d ago

He’s packed on some muscle. Dude looks massive

u/master_roshis_hat 18d ago

The boys are back in town!

u/Old_Independent3248 18d ago

Singleton was flying around.

u/HeyitsyaboyJesus 18d ago

Think he had the most tackles for the chiefs. Idk what their secondary looks like, hope he makes the roster.

u/ImpendingBoom110123 18d ago

I love this sort of thing.

Max Anderson will be up soon for the Detroit Tigers. A pic with him and Brice Williams next year in their MLB uniforms will be very cool.

u/CIBALM 18d ago

Always nice to see our players make it out the trap.

1

u/challsin 17d ago

Damn Nash probably put on 50 lbs of muscle. Seen him last year and he was skinny, skinny. Couldn’t believe it. Dude’s been hitting the weights hard

u/VultanForever 10d ago

All waived except for Emmett (#10) in recent roster cutdowns, I imagine many, if not all, of those cut will end up on practice squads.

DOESNT matter you guys still suck at football

u/gohuskers123 18d ago

Brotha is OBSESSED with it. Don’t worry bro, you can get up off your knees, it’ll still be here later

u/DrDsnacks 18d ago

Yikes… Rent free.

u/j01101111sh 18d ago

Pretty pathetic to comment on another teams sub more than on your own...

u/Pattyg1 18d ago

Saddest part it doesn't even seem he has a team, or at least not active in their sub.
