[Husker] Mr. Keller Comes to Lincoln

[Omar Sharieff]

And so we don't have another harrison beck debacle, Patrick Witt should just 
consider redshirting. There is NO reason for him to not redshirt. He should 
take a year to learn the WCO, and then get ready the following year to 
compete. although he may reneg on his commitment. hope he doesn't do that...
