Voices of Husker Nation For fans, the statue feels less like an addition than a reunion. “We still chant ‘There is no place like Nebraska,’ and that starts with Coach,” said 1983 linebacker Steve Damkroger, one of hundreds of former players who formed a human tunnel for Osborne’s ceremonial first walk past the statue. Current quarterback Daniel Kaelin touched the bronze shoe for luck and promised to make it a pre-game ritual. Families lingered to snap pictures, children emulating the coach’s stride, creating new memories atop old traditions.
