Raiola's jersey is retired and his name is on the North Stadium facade for winning the very first Rimington Trophy in 2000.
I loved watching Raiola play. He was a beast of a blocker who could steamroll anybody in front of him, but he was also surprisingly quick. Early in his Nebraska career, he was the long snapper on the punt team. Many times, Dom would be one of the first guys down the field. Imagine being a kick returner expecting to have a corner or safety be the first guy you see, then you look up and there is a freaking center bearing down on you.
