[Husker] Westerkamp Weighing His Options

[David Strong]

Andy you're right for sure about Taylor getting the ball there.  There were
times he'd let that ugly pass fly and I'd think What??? and darned if it
wouldn't end up where it should be. He did it a lot, maybe he just looks so
bad that you think this is a disaster coming!  Plenty of times where the
result was as ugly as the start though.  He seemed to get picked less
toward the end of the season, but there were games where I would think "You
keep letting this guy heave it around like that and something bad is going
to happen" and generally it did.  I said early in the season that every
pass with Taylor is an adventure and I haven't any reason to come off that.
