How would you like him to talk about it?  Or would you rather him not say
anything at all?  As far as I can tell he doesn't know why he's been 
dismissed,
but I've only read what's been linked to here on the list.  It certainly isn't
easy to not say a word when you feel you've been unfairly treated.  Or to say
you had a great relationship when you didn't.

Except they won't say anything.  And the one side we've heard hasn't exactly
been dragging Pederson and Callahan through the muck.  But here's the thing, I
would wager most Nebraska fans feel closer to Doak than they do to Steve
Pederson.

The microscope is focused on the football program and the scrutiny is 
their own
doing.

Thank goodness for baseball.  Unfortunately, NU melted down in the 
fourth. Anderson's comment was something like Rice got about 7 outs in 
their six run
inning.  Nebraska was up early 5-0 on a 4 run first with a great 2 out rally,
but maybe relaxed a little bit too much and didn't score after that.  
Final was
9-5 Rice.

3rd game against Florida Atlantic starts shortly.
