Shortly after that, it became clear to what Coach Harriman was referring. News came down today that heralded point guard Tai Webster had officially been clerared by the NCAA and it's full steam ahead for him and the Huskers as they head into their first season in Pinnacle Bank Arena.

For Husker fans who have found themselves on the short end of the stick of eligibility decisions over the years, they can breathe easy now. No more waiting for the other shoe to drop or losing sleep fearing for the worst, he's here, he's eligible.
