The University of Nebraska football team has granted an 8-year-old boy's wish through the Make-A-Wish Foundation to become a Husker for the day.
According to the Lincoln Journal Star, Jack Johnson of Norfolk signed his letter of intent to join the Huskers Tuesday. While Jack will be an honorary member of the team Saturday, the Huskers have also been showing Jack around the facilities this afternoon.
