re: Tidbit on WR Coach Mickey Joseph

In 1986 Mickey Joseph was the #1 rated recruit in La. as a dual threat QB out of Shaw high school.

Reggie Cooper - Safety (Slidell HS) and Tyrone Hughes - RB (St Aug) were also on the same Nebraska team with Mickey. Sadly MJ's college career came to an end on 11-23-90 during a late hit out of bounds by an OU defender. Lacerated his left leg/calf to the bone on the aluminum bench. I'm Mickey's age and very familiar with NOLA HS recruiting during the mid/late 80's to early 90's. My brother verbally committed to OK State in 1988 and went on multiple recruiting visits to Stillwater when Barry Sanders won the Heisman
