    Huskers mb crop of early recruits
RECRUITS from pagq 5
Ross of Thomas Jefferson High
School in Denver. The 2000 class
included linemen Martin Flaum
and Jake Andersen of Denver, as
well as receiver Ross Pilkington
from Loveland. PiUrington, a 204*
round draft choice of the Colorado
Rockies, has opted to play baseball
and will not join the Huskers.
Ross, whose brother Roger
Ross Jr. plays at Kansas, is the
16*-best comeiback in die coun
try according to Rivalsl00.com.
The S-foot-9-inch, 182-pound
Ross boasts a 4.4 electronic 40
yard dash and a 36-inch vertial
leap. Ross also could see time at
running bade and kick returner. He
chose the Huskers over Texas,
Colorado, Miami, Tennessee,
USC, Kansas and Washington
state.
Even though Nebraska lost
prized Texas quarterback prospect
Kendal Briles to the Longhorns,
another area field general decided
to stay close to home and play for
the Huskers.
Mike Stuntz (6 feet 2 inches,
180 pounds), a quarterback from
St. Albert’s High School in
Council Bluffs, Iowa, chose the
Huskers over Iowa, Iowa State and
Texas A&M. Stuntz, whq joins
Millard North Is Mike McLaughlin
as Nebraska Is only 2001 quarter
back recruits so far, runs a 4.5-sec
ond 40-yard dash and is consid
ered one of the best run-pass quar
terbacks in the Midwest Stuntz is
thenatkn^ 25*-best quarterback
and boasts a three-out-of-four star
ranking, according to RivalslOO.
Also staying close to home is
Lincoln Southeast^ Barrett Ruud
(6 feet 2 inches, 220 pounds).
Ruud, whose father played at
Nebraska, is the 40th-best line
backer in the country, according to
Rivals 100. Ruud runs a 4.7-sec
ond 40-yard dash and can bench
press 280 pounds. He also earned
all-state honors as a junior. Ruud
picked die Huskers over Michigan
and Notre Dame.
Perhaps the most intriguing -
not to mention biggest - 2001
recruit is Seppo Evwaraye, a
Finnish exchange student from
Laurel
Evwaraye, Rival's 65th-best
offensive lineman, stands 6 feet 5
inches tall and weighs 325 pounds.
He runs a 5-second 40-yard dash
and bench presses 350 pounds.
Evwaraye picked Nebraska
over Iowa State.
‘Rocky’ a real horror to witness unfold
FILMS from page 9
movie that portrayed all FBI
agents as paper pushers. Until this
one.
The very premise of the movie
is built on, well, nothing. Neva is
it made clear why, exactly, Rocky
and Bullwinkle are needed for any
reason whatsoever. Can’t Fearless
Leada and his cronies be arrested
and detained like everybody else?
The conclusion of the movie
proves this true; fa no special rea
son were they needed at all. They
are simply present in the movie
and no more, and the occasional
pop-culture joke occurs around
them. Or maybe they say it with
out knowing it What irony.
If “Rocky and Bullwinkle”
wasn’t destined to be bad, it was
destined to flop in the theaters.
There is no audience for this
movie that I can discern. One
child in theater said, “That was the
weirdest movie I’ve ever seen,”
and he meant it
I cannot deny liking Perabo
somewhat; she’s a cross between
two actresses that you can’t quite
name, and her performance, while
not something I’d ever care to
watch again, was impressive in a
strange way. She acted against a
green screen, after all. I get the
same feeling whenever I see
Robert Downey Jr., though he’s
acting with humans.
Maybe people with spilt per
sonalities can enjoy this movie. Of
course, they’ll have to drag them
selves from die “Me, Myself and
Irene” picket lines long enough to
see it. My advice: Stay right
where you (and you, too) are. No
need confusing people Anther.
No stars.

Rotation highlights Rep’s season
REP from page 2
“I went online and found a Web
site that had pictures of
(Habersham Road) in Atlanta,
where the house is supposed to be
located,” Naversen said
The entire set is elevated more
than a food above foe stage floor.
Upstage left is foe front door, and
upstage right is a staircase which
leads to unseen bedrooms. A door
to the kitchen, a hall closet and a
Christmas tree displayed in the
front window span the center part
offoe upstage area.
Two window seats dominate
the downstage-right and down
stage-center edges of the set.
Naversen said the window seats
were included to give the actors a
reason to look out toward the audi
ence on the sides.
