Nebraska Backup QB Missing (Has left the team)

sportsline

OMAHA, Neb. -- Nebraska backup quarterback Harrison Beck is leaving the Cornhuskers.

"I'm disappointed that things occurred the way they did," coach Bill Callahan said after practice Monday. "I was hopeful that (the situation) could be rectified. But it's Harrison's choice."

Callahan said he spoke with Beck earlier in the day and the sophomore would be released from his scholarship.

Beck was a no-show at practice Friday and Saturday.

Considered one of the top Nebraska recruits in 2005, Beck burned his redshirt late last season when he replaced injured starter Zac Taylor in a 27-25 victory over Kansas State on Nov. 12.

Beck missed his first four passes and threw an interception on the fifth against the Wildcats, then led the Huskers on a seven-play, 55-yard drive, capped by a game-winning 40 yard field goal.

I compared smith/zwick because, ever one thought zwick was the next starter no matter what and that would cause him to transfer when smith became a star/starter

Tressel could have brought in superman and he still would have backed up Krenzel:)
