[Husker] a bit of information about Bo's rant

[Lawson, Scott R.]

I thought Coach Pelini explained his actions well and I am fine with it. This stuff has been going on since Harvard played Yale in 1870 or whenever that started, we just see it more now because television networks have ZERO discretion over what they show, they want there to be something to talk about for 40 more minutes during a telecast.

I also found it interesting that the reporters STILL asked about the outburst & Martinez stuff even after the coach explained things pretty clearly and then told them he was done talking about it. It's no wonder he's pissed off all the time.

Didn't watch, but listened to it over the radio.

Bo began with a statement talking about how he strives to make sure the program 
represents the University well, and he admitted that he didn't do that Saturday 
night, and apologized for that.  He wouldn't (couldn't?) go into specifics, but 
he clarified that he talked with Taylor Martinez after the game, and that 
Martinez was excused from walkthroughs yesterday. He also indicated that 
Martinez wouldn't have participated anyway due to his injury.  He expects 
Martinez to start if he's able, if not, then Cody Green would start.  Zac Lee 
was apparently available to play, but he's still not recovered from his injury. 
Pelini denied that Martinez had been suspended, or that they'd use the injury to 
cover up any suspension.

My take was that he came right out and addressed what happened, and said what 
needed to be said. (Unlike his predecessor five years ago...)

He also was asked about the situation with his brother Carl; Bo said that Carl 
was attempting to shepherd a player off the field in the commotion, and that the 
camera got bumped in the process.

Was anyone able to watch the press conference?  I thought there might
be posts here about it.
