I would say yes. Even if he doesn't he's worth a try.

Fran has always bugged me. Kind of like Bo Pelini. Except Bo didn't have athletically talented children.

Found that out last March when Was looking to see if his contract might be up soon.

It was done in secret and was not announced to the press until someone caught wind of it.

We Nebraskans don't have a lot of famous fellow natives, so we claim who we can, even if they left as infants.

If you've ever been to the Gerald R. Ford Birthplace in Omaha, you'll know. I think Ford (Leslie King at birth) might have been 48 hours old when he left Omaha, but we get to claim him!
