[Husker] walk-ons and SP

[Mike Jaixen]

Not to belabor the point, but here is a Lincoln
Journal-Star story from October 2004 that refers to SP
as saying that $15 million had been raised by April
2004:

I will stand corrected, though on my dates.  My
recollection was the $15 million amount was from
December 2003, but I could not confirm it.  From April
2004 until the last report, which may have been last
summer, Nebraska had raised around $6.5 million.
($21.5 million - $15 million)  $5 million came from
the Myers family, and $1 million from the Erstads.
