[Husker] Pelini is not better than both of the last 2 coaches,

[Tommy Thompson]

Not positive on the details either, but I believe it was his son, rather 
than an analysis of his blood, who stated that he had been slipped GHB.

Personally, I didn't think he was really ready to be the head coach at 
Nebraska...at least not the right guy to follow Tom Osborne.  He seems to be 
doing an excellent job at Ohio, though, and I'm very happy for him.  He was 
an excellent player and assistant coach for the Huskers.
