To think that they ran Solich out of town because he wasn't "good enough" to the boosters who are used to national champions. Callahan comes in and Nebraska might not even be eligible for a bowl for the first time in 35 years. OUCH!

Charges recommended for NU player

By The Associated Press
NORMAN -- The University of Oklahoma Police Department has recommended that a University of Nebraska football player be prosecuted for felony assault and battery for injuring a member of an OU spirit group.
A report asking for the charge against Cornhusker offensive lineman Darren DeLone was being presented to the Cleveland County District Attorney's Office, Sgt. Gary Robinson said Friday.

Robinson declined comment on details in the police report.

"The district attorney will review the report and will make the decision on whether to file charges," Robinson said.

District Attorney Tim Kuykendall was in a meeting and did not immediately return telephone calls.

Adam Merritt, a member of the spirit groups, Ruf/Neks, lost two teeth after an encounter described by witnesses as an attack on Merritt by DeLone prior to Saturday's OU-Nebraska football game.

Witnesses claimed DeLone, who was going through pre-game drills on the northeast corner of Owen Field, charged Merritt, rammed his helmet into Merritt's face and then shoved the freshman into a brick wall.

Merritt, 19, was knocked unconscious by the blow and was treated and released from Norman Regional Hospital.

In a statement, the University of Nebraska's athletic department referred to the incident as a "collision."

Good grief I think Nebraska needs to make anger management apart of their requirements to play on the football team. First they clobber a Missouri fan post game and now they clobber a Oklahoma spirit group member with his helmet!

Which, sadly, leaves him with only one more tooth.

It's nice to see Nebraska going to back to their criminal roots...
