He's done a ton for UNL and not just for the program. Look forward to seeing him play on Sunday.

Best of luck to Rex, left it all out on the field, a hell of a player. Proud to have him as a Husker, I too look forward to seeing him play on Sundays.

 

[Blackshirts]

His work ethic will get him a Sunday job. I wish there were more like him. Football on any level would be better for it.

 

[HuskerInSecLand]

He will be one of my favorite players through the years not only for his work horse ethics on the field but his compassion off the field.

Crazy how time flies seem like yesterday Rex was splitting time with helu or trying to catch punts in the monsoon Mizzou game. He will play NFL just needs to find the right team. Thanks again Rex

I recall thinking how he would step up after Helu left, yeah. Rex is a good man and will do great things unrelated to football. Unbeknownst to the Saban/Miles/Meyers+Auburn, there's things bigger than your bank account in this life

This might be the game I remember most when thinking of Ol' Rexy.

 

[BigRedMoe]

But mostly I'll remember him for things like this...

 

[iruletheskool]

I always remember this one too..

I always remember this one too..

Wow, his freshman year. His first 100 yard game?

I believe so.. when Roy was a bit hampered

Nice. Rex painted that Black Friday Scarlet and Cream.

Here's a piece on Rex and Jack from Fox. A lot of it has been written before but still tugs at you a bit.

Burkhead runs with purpose, both on and off the field
