[Husker] Stick or Quit

[Theodore Heise]

I tend toward David's line of thinking here.

I agree that Sam McKewon has a pretty good analysis (he has been 
consistently good for what seems a long time now--will be sad to see 
him graduate and move on), but I have to wonder at his statment 
that, " If the Huskers stay, Texas  stays..."  I'm not sure what 
this is based on.
