I know this story is a week old, but living in Minnesota, I don't always 
get wind of the latest Husker news right away.

Apparently, Solich and some of his close friends sponsored a $350,000 
post-graduate scholarship when he became head coach in 1998.  Shortly 
after his firing in 2004, Pedey took down a plaque commemorating the 
scholarship *recipients* in the South Stadium (what a classy move), and 
the scholarship was moved to the NU College of Law.

Regardless of what you thought of his coaching ability, I think this is 
a great move.
