[Husker] Another Husker leaving and speaking negatively (fwd)

[Mike Jaixen]

Take a step back and look at the bigger picture ---
5-6 record, players playing uninspired in most games,
and yes, players leaving.  Players complaining about
the coaches is just a symptom of a bigger problem.

Some people will put the blame on the players.

Some people will put the blame on the coaches.

Some people will put the blame on both.  Which is
where I fall; I think some players did not buy into
the coaching changes.  That's fine, and it's best for
everyone if they move on.  I think the coaching staff
bears quite a bit of blame for how they mishandled the
transition as well.  I think some players do not fit
the new coaches plans, and that was to be expected. 
But I would have expected guys like Birkel,
Pilkington, and Brungardt to have been treated with
more respect than apparantly they were shown by this
staff.
