The bug eaters could afford to bring in home grown and midwestern nobodies, when they could feed those kids dianabol, let them bulge to mindboggling strength and size....until the NCAA would no longer turn their heads. That's when they had to start recruiting outside their old recruiting grounds.

IMO it is important up read the article

"Historically, few schools cover as much ground on the recruiting trail as Nebraska. Memorial Stadium has always been a melting pot of geographic diversity. But the Great Plains served as the foundation."

As to the passing comment about juicing - in the 70's - 80's it was as common as waking up in the morning all across the landscape of college football. Implying that NU had the edge over everyone else is crazy. Lots of the fair skinned types used the needles - and the stuff is/was easy to obtain.

Hell Toots - just in the recent past some NW yapped about Alabama and all their players going the synthetic route - thus their domination of college football.
