Because he knew that team in Lincoln is going nowhere.And that QB transferred to Oregon.
We are talking about the Big 8 in the 70’s and 80’s. Rules were optionalThe eligibility rules at the time were such that anyone close to qualifying went to prep school for a year, thereby preserving a year of eligibility. One-year jucos were limited to prospects who wanted better offers (see Joe Germaine, Aaron Rodgers). Prospects in academic holes large enough to be forced to follow the juco route were locked in for two years.
Chose to be a backup at Oregon rather than a starter for miserable Nebraska. And his dad freaking played there.And that QB transferred to Oregon.
