C N Red Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 Wow, such a different feel from the previous posts on this board about Witt leaving. Amazing what a nice presser will do for a young man. I never degraded him. If you look back at the post about him leaving I wrote I felt he would sign with an Ivy league. Quote Link to comment
T_O_Bull Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 Ivy League diploma = $100,000 in the very near future. A shot at a meaningful future. Witt obviously has the mental acquieties to take advanage of an Ivy League education and all that comes with it. Go Pat Go. T_O_B Quote Link to comment

Meaning he has the mental sharpness to put a degree from Yale to good use. Dictionary: ACUITY (a·cu·i·ty) n. Acuteness of vision or perception; keenness; sharpness. Quote Link to comment
Oldschool Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 Could he not get into Yale coming out of HS?? Why go to NE and be the front runner for QB, and all of a sudden, decide to transfer to another school? If he's a smart dude, then he could have gone for a Master's in an Ivy League school. BTW - he was pursuing a degree in finance. It still is confusing, and I don't think we are getting 100% of the story. For being such a smart guy, it seems like a boneheaded move to throw away all the time you spent to get to the top of an organization. Quote Link to comment
drmathprog Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 Maybe Yale was his backup school too! Quote Link to comment

A lot of young men are dazzled by the bright lights cast from being recruited. Couple that with the adolation that you experience, and it's possible that he simply wanted it all to continue - and only later realized the right choice, for him, was Yale. Quote Link to comment
HuskerJen Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 Wow, such a different feel from the previous posts on this board about Witt leaving. Amazing what a nice presser will do for a young man. I found this interesting... Witt denied speculation that he made demands to Pelini about playing time or requested that NU name a starting QB in the spring. I don't believe him... Because, people I know, who are much closer to the daily ins and outs of the program than I am, say that this is exactly what happened. As for Witt denying he made demands for PT or to be named a stater...just look at what we witnessed recently with the Cody Glenn fiasco. I have nothing against Patrick Witt, I wish him all the best and I know he'll go a hell of a lot further in life with a diploma from Yale than he would Dear Old Nebraska U. Quote Link to comment

After a couple attempts at googling it, I thought it was a lack of that sound your brain makes the first time you try doing a hard Calculus problem. Quote Link to comment
