[Husker] NU AD - Glenn said what ?

I know that speculation is half the fun of the Internet, but I think we are
making some big assumptions.

What we know is the Cody Glenn said he sold some tickets and he attributes
this to his being suspended. BP has said "No Comment." and the athletic
department is saying selling tickets wasn't an issue they knew about and are
trying to talk to Cody Glenn.

There are many things that can be going on here. Including BP not wanting to
air a kid's dirty laundry in the press. What he says to the press is not
necessarily what he shares with the NCAA? That Cody was suspended when this
apparently came to light will go a long way with the NCAA. They tend to
reward quick suspensions when things come to a coach or AD's attention.

It doesn't make sense to me for BP to suspend a kid publically and then try
to sweep it under the rug. It does make sense for him to take action against
an infraction and then refuse to discuss the details in the press.
