[Husker] Execution

[Mark Landin]

1-year scholarships are the norm nationwide. Few schools offer 4-year
scholarships. Some coaches are more prone to pulling scholarships
however, and the SEC seems to have a few of those. They also oversign
their recruiting classes, accepting more commitments than they have
scholarships ... Some new athletes show up and find out they are
greyshirting rather than getting their scholarship.
