Lane Grindle made the transition from play-by-play booth to P. A. booth in Nebraska’s hope opener on September 5.  Grindle, a radio man by nature, hadn’t done P.A. since his high school days in Hastings, Iowa. With short preparation for his new gig, he studied two to three hours of old HuskerVision game film that had only the public-address feed, so he could get a feel for the necessary style.

Husker Extra: The Scene: Grindle admirably makes most of the new P. A. job

Two spotters, a 15-page script and 90,000 fans, not a bad way to make your splash behind the P. A. mic.
