Sharpe and Benning discuss the possibility of Osborne and Rex leading tunnel walk on senior day... Would be epic

That would be epic, indeed. I wonder if Tom would really consider it.

I'd hope so. It's be an awesome way to send out TO and the crowd would go absolutely WILD!!

If for whatever reason Rex doesn't dress for this game (which I don't think he won't) I would love to see Nebraska do something truly special for this kid. Rex has been THE figure of Nebraska football over the last 4 years. There is no one on the team with more respect from everyone in the country than Rex Burkhead aka Superman...
I will cheer at the top of my lungs when that young man is introduced for the last time at Memorial Stadium, and I imagine we will see some tears in the crowd. Heck I wouldn't be shocked to see Rex tear up just a bit as well.
Thank god for Rex!

It would be so unfair for Minnesota to walk in to that atmosphere. Let do it!

Heck I will probably tear up from home. What a great representative of the University.

I think they will honor him in some way, but not sure he would agree to that at all.

I thought the same but that is why Bo should step up and ask him to do so... TO wouldn't say no if Bo asked him to I don't think

This is so true. He is one who has gained respect from being so much more than just being a football player.

No, the INS isn't chasing him; Taylor Martinez just runs like that. . . .

So i did my part. I emailed Jamie Williams and Bo Pelini. not that it would make a difference but it can't hurt. I just basically said how meaningful it'd be to convince Tom to go along with this. Because even if they asked they will probably have to push it on him bc Tom isn't about getting attention.

As long as TO walks out dressed in an old school Starter jacket and that tall, rigid Husker cap, I'm for it!!
It would be pretty sweet and the place would be shaking! I sure hope this happens.
