One of the greatest in a long line of Nebraska I Backs to come out of Omaha Central, Calvin Jones was a star in the Husker backfield. He was All Big 8 as a sophomore and junior, and was a finalist for the Doak Walker award.
Jones will always be remembered for his record-setting performance at Kansas in 1991. He took over for an injured teammate and ran 27 times for a (then) school record 294 yards and six touchdowns.
