[Husker] What Do Husker Fans Want?

[Dick Karre]

The most important aspect of the "walk-ons" (I don't believe it was just 
walk-ons, or even all the walk-ons) not warming up with the team is the fact 
that Callahan recognized he had made a mistake, acknowledged that, and 
changed the policy. There are enough real concerns to rant about (if that is 
your bent); this is a non-issue.
