I was there and it looked better in person, with the intense wind. He just threw his hand up there and somehow caught it without really looking!

JT Skarda

The ball was way high, and behind him a bit. Plus he was in traffic, which makes it pretty hairy.. And to top it off, he scored. Phenomenal.

Watch for yourself

Phil Wojtalewicz

There's been none better in Husker history (IMHO).

Paul Billesbach

He ran a great route, jumped and had full extension just to reach the ball, caught and secured the ball and then accelerated into the endzone untouched. A very remarkable catch, with 4 defenders cover

Tay Thomsen

Because, he scored onthe play as well.

Janet Eckard

Lets see, the leap higher than I am tall, the fingertip grab out of the air, the stride thru the whole play, it doesn't get any better!

John Dixson

it was a awesome catch in the open when he knew he was surrounded by defenders

There's been a few others that rival this one. Anybody remember Johnny Mitchell's one-handed catch?

Cuz this is America!

It was awesome, but... not the very best.

Rich Crotty

The Catch in 1997 by Matt Davidson will rank as the #1 all time Husker Catch.. it won the 5th National Championship!

Harley Morrissey

Good catch but not the great even this Saturday saw several that were better.

Rick Redfield

Remember Scott Frost to Shevin Wiggins to Matt Davison?

Bob Crockford

As great as it was, others have also made great catches. Just want to say, though, when it was caught, I was, totally, impressed and went nuts!! :) I do believe, it was the greatest by a Husker!!!

Larry Schucht

Davison's catch was better and meant more at the time. That's #1.

Give him time to see if he can figure out a winning formula here. It's not like anyone else has been successful. Not much to lose. It's too bad there has been so little success. I think Husker fans would be overly supportive of the program especially with some improvement.

Randy Weitzenkamp

Let's face it. With a few rare exceptions, Husker basketball has never been better than mediocre at best. Let's give Fred plenty of runway to turn things around. We certainly don't have much to lose (pun not intended).

Just needs players that play DEFENCE they all know offence

The defense has made progress. The offense not so much. The real problem is Frost's dedication to Martinez. Adrian is a great guy, but his minuses exceed his pluses.

Toby Leach

The production was there from those coaches. Better to make the decision then, so you can still have a positive impact with recruiting.

Randy Wolf

I imagine the transfer portal had a lot to do with the timing.

Nate Stineman

It had to be done and it clear that things are going to happen at NU.

Frank Johnson

The team was not going to become better with their existing staff. Make the cut and start improving.

If you are not going to make new hires before the end of the season anyway, what was the purpose in firing them now? It will be interesting to see how the offense performs, but I can't see this as beneficial.
