Incredible stats for a walk-on RB.

Dean H

hard to find speedy runniing backs to walk on during those days. 30 scholarships and 120 max meant there was little quality left to get studs like him to walk on.

While I.M. Hipp has the all time greatest name for a college football player and was a great runner, I think Tomich's impact was greater. He was a big part of those championship defenses.

Johnny Joyce

He was a killer on defense and he wears an NC ring.

Luke Jay Cochran

Class guy Lost only 3 games when he played here All Husker

Ann Pinaire

He is the best!!! So proud of him!!

Randy Waterhouse

IM Hipp was good in his day, taking nothing from him. Jared Tomich was a beast on defense. Defense wins championships.

Ricky Herman

Great guy and good player

Mary Pugh

Because he deserves it

Randy Moss

Seems to me to have had the better career. Without looking into stats. One offense one defense. So it could be a difficult comparison.

Randy Petersen

Dominating DE on a dominating defense.

We have talent in the room. They will have the same learning curve that Emmett had. He was an average back at the beginning of last season and look how he blossomed. That said, if a solid back is available, take him of course

Bill Scheef

Nebraska is a 3rd Tier team in the BIG 10 and an after thought nationally and our expectations for recruiting should reflect that. With the powers in the BIG 10 nationally Nebraska's "good old days..." are just. Swept into the dust bin of what once was...Sorry, but...it's the truth as I see it.

Mr L is from Socal, therefore highly motivated to excel...Huskers by 15

Adveresity often brings out the best in a team.

AK-460Mag Nurse

We have yet to lose two in a row this season, and I think I formation with TJ and EJ has the potential to be devastating. GBR 🤘

Brad Bredenkamp

They won’t come out flat like they did last year. It will be a team win with a defensive or special teams score.

James Key

yes if EJ has plus 100 and TJ has 50 Run and 166 Pass. Then yes. All bets off if over 2 TO.

Ron Joseph

Time for the O to show their potential in support TJ. Once he gets comfortable with the game, he will add a dimension to the game we haven't had- dual threat QB.

Not enough players with the "it factor".

VAHuskerFan

Unfortunately we still have a terrible O-line and now Freshman QB a Defense that can’t stop anyone, I don’t have much hope for the season ending on a positive note. Lose by 17
