I apologize if this has been posted:

They were saying terrible things about Sam Keller at Arizona State. He was a party guy, or worse. A teammates' dad supposedly had jumped into the character assassination, ripping him behind his back....
"Him and I hit it off right off the bat," McKeon said. "He wanted a chance to roast me all day (in practice). He doesn't have that quarterback attitude where everything has to be precise. He was willing to be cutthroat and willing to be that dangerous player."
That attitude made Keller an honorary member of The Blackshirts, the nickname for Nebraska's vaunted (at least in the past) defense.
The bitterness is gone. It oozed out of Keller about the time McKeon welcomed him to Lincoln.
"I don't consider myself a Sun Devil," Keller now says flatly. "I'm a Husker."
