McCaffrey has stones.
It shows a lot of chutzpah to not only wear your coaches number but a heisman trophy winner's number. Reminds me of Marlon Lucky wearing 20 for a couple of years and he ended up not liking the comparisons between he and Rogers and switched his number to 5.

There isn’t as many kids now that play QB in this day in age that favor #10-19...

Especially #19..

It Could have been some of that, too but I could have sworn he took number 20 because he was a big Barry Sanders fan and he claimed he changed to number 5 because he wasn’t putting up the Barry Sanders type numbers and felt it was a kind of disgrace to B Sanders if he wore it. But maybe I remember wrong.

Other than Johnny U., who wore #19. Honest question, I don't remember that many.

Yea, I even have trouble thinking of Husker players who wore 19 besides Randy Borg in the early 70’s...

No offense too Marquel Dismarke and Mike Williams.

I guess I was going for other famous QB's who wore #19, as far as Huskers go I don't have anything there either. I'll see if I can come up with somebody.

Without looking, I think Clint Finley did, and he’s a long-time underrated player.
Kyle Larsen, Quentin Castille, and Mike Marrow are the only #19 contributors to play since Clint Finley I could find.

Let's hope this highly rated #1 does a lot better than the last one. That guy sucked..

Wasn’t Castille a weed casualty? Bailed NU out big time in the Gator Bowl when Roy and Lucky couldn’t make a go of it.
