[Husker] Update on Skippy & the Buffies

[Sean McGrath]

I believe the nickname 'Skippy' came from the fact that Neuheisel would
always take his teams to go rafting, camping and other outdoor things
that earned him the nickname Skippy the Scoutmaster.

Actually, I was happy to see Coach Neuheisel take on the NCAA and win.
I thought his firing from UW was unwarranted and orchestrated by the
NCAA.  I'm glad he got his day in court and that he won.

PS, why is there such animosity towards Coach Neuheisel?  What's with
the nickname Skippy?  What did he ever do to the Huskers?  I certainly
like our record against the teams he coached.  : )

And Rick Neuheisel wins $4.7 million in a settlement
with the NCAA and Washington over Neuheisel's firing.
Apparantly, the case was headed for a mistrial, and
they decided to settle.
