[Husker] Shatel on Bo

[Rod Wellman]

Would you put it past Beebe?  I wouldn't.  But unless someone who was complicit comes forward in a "tell all", there's no way to prove it, so the misconduct will go unpunished unfortunately.  If that's what truly transpired, I applaud Pellini for having the guts to come out and say it.
