[Husker] Recruiting

[Tommy Thompson]

Bob Devaney probably had a pretty good idea of how to recruit when he became 
the AD at Nebraska.

I brought up this same point when he contacted the Nebraska player and 
offered him a scholarship.  He did that after Pelini was officially 
announced as the HC and had already had his first press conference.

I agree that if it is legal, I don't have a problem with it.  Tom Osborne 
has obviously demonstrated that he can recruit very well.

Hmmm...will he also recruit for the volleyball team, baseball team, etc? 
Or, are those programs now being ignored by the athletic department?
