[Husker] Kansas State Preview

[Robert Christensen]

As far as I know, any "reprimand" was not public.  You don't like his 
behavior.  Your not his boss.  Big deal.  I know his relationship with 
his assistants, his AD, his players and the officials is really none of 
my business.  I am not making excuses for him.  I would have to have 
some power in this situation for any excuse from me to be even relevant 
.  It does seem like some people are saying "I want him to be 
successful" then badger and berate him like they perceive he badgers and 
berates others.  I find it pretty hypocritical.
