[Husker] Ganz on Witt

[David Strong]

After reading both these articles, my take is that both Joe Ganz and the Corn Nation article are presumptuous to the extreme.  What sounds the most reliable and accurate is when Patrick Witt says that Joe Ganz has no idea why he left.  It seems that Patrick and his father has conducted themselves with class and dignity and, in my opinion only, Joe Ganz, Steve Sipple (and his "sources"), and anyone else who mouths off about this situation does so from ignorance.  Patrick made a decision he has every right to make, hasn't uttered one negative thing about anything or anyone, and is moving on.  Why tear him down?

Joe Ganz talked a lot yesterday about his future, Zac Lee as a potential successor, as well as Cody Green.

But he also had some comments about Patrick Witt's departure:

"Stuff is not going to be given to you here.

"Things are not going to be handed to people. People are not playing favorites. You have to work for everything you get."

Witt today responded in a statement to the World-Herald:

"Joe clearly has no idea why I made the decision that I did, and I don't expect him to. There is more to my life than football, and that will be evident when I decide upon my next school."

If that means that academics is the reason why he wants to leave, more power to him.  If that's the case, he might follow his brother to an Ivy League school.  (His brother played quarterback for Harvard.)
