Lue was better, IMO.

The dynamic recruiting duo of Kermit Anderson and Norm Stewart struck out on Lue and his cousin Cookie Belcher.

Lue because they thought he was too small. Cookie because Kim - his lead recruiter - somehow didn’t hammer the correct name home to Norm.

Stewart spent the entire in-home visit calling him “Corky.” He committed to Nebraska shortly thereafter.
