[Husker] McCloughan

[Tommy Thompson]

Kent McCloughan has 3 sons.

I think the reason David might have gone to Colorado was that he grew up in 
Loveland, CO.  I think he is the recruiting coordinator for the 49ers.

Scot, the one who is the new GM for the 49ers, went to Wichita St, where he 
played baseball.
