Lavonte David was a difference maker. He was extremely explosive and had unbelievable ball instincts. He single handedly turned the momentum around in the 2011 Ohio State game!

His hit during the OSU game in Lincoln. Tackle, strip, turnover. Changed the whole direction of the game.

He, like Suh, could change a game by himself. He was a disrupt-er, smart and had an uncanny ability to seem to know where the play was going. Ruud was great also but imagine David wt 4 years here!

Dude was a beast, wish we had him for 4 years. Ruud was great, but David's ability has also transferred to the NFL very well.

This is not even close. David is a nfl hall of fame talent. If tampa bay actually gets success he may get national attention. He is under est. By thr general public....Nebraska Fans and true football

He may not be as purely talented, but there is nothing but winning in Scott Frosts veins. He is a champion. That is why he'll be a fantastic head coach too. He is a winner. Simple as that.

Crouch could beat you with his legs but Frost was the best leader and the toughest.

Both were great, but Frost could do everything Crouch did and was more of a leader.

I'd go with Frost as he was a fierce competitor who wasn't afraid to run someone over when necessary. The national championship was icing on the cake. Why wasn't this Frazier vs Frost?

Agree, no offense but they're competing for second place after Touchdown Tommy.

Scott for leadership qualities, drive and toughness. While Eric was the better runner, Scott was the better option QB.

Scott Frost was just the better athlete and competitor. He the one with the undeafeated season and National Championship.

Could have picked either one and been happy. Scott wasn't as fast but I do believe he was the tougher runner.

He is a born winner who would do anything to win or help his team. Play offense or defense and do it well.

tough call for me, Scott Frost just had or has an attitude about him, he ran angry. I guess the question i would have is what would crouch have done with that 97 offensive line and coach Osborne

Eric Crouch had to carry the load of the offense. Scott was good too, but had better support and more weapons. Eric was faster, quicker as a runner, better instincts on the option. He also had better arm strength. Scott was bigger and stronger as a runner, a more vocal leader though. Close call

They were both terrific, but if we are comparing players (not teams) - it isn't very close. Eric Crouch could carry a team; he wasn't just 'fast' - he was tough and had a great will to win.

Scott had a better team around him. I believe Crouch was the better athlete and overall quarterback. I would pick him as my QB. Now compare to Gill, Gdowski, Taylor, Frazier...

If Crouch played for Osborne he'd have had even a better career. Not knocking Solich but it was clear the team fell off after Tom Os' departure.

I guess Tommy F, is assumed to be preferred choice over either Frost or Crouch?

These are impossible questions, but Turner Gill is my all time favorite. He changed the position at Nebraska, and had the ideal combination of elusiveness, toughness, leadership, and passing skills.

Develop players. Year after year we get beat by teams we consistently out-recruit that develop players better.

I believe defense feeds on offense on Frost coached team more than the flip side. If the offense can move the ball consistently we'll have a great team next year.

To me, the game starts with D. Rock solid D will keep our team in most games.

To hang wt OSU and to finally beat Wisc again, we need a D that can compete and limit their offense. I think we will have a better OL this year & we have many skilled players on the O. Time defense..

Points on the board is fun, but defense wins championships. Play defense, and our offense will take care of itself!

We returned a lot more starters on offense than on defense, and at LB where we did return some guys, we weren't very good last year. D has a lot more work to do heading into the season.
