Tom Osborne reveals regrets in new book
LINCOLN, Neb. — Tom Osborne writes in his latest book that he may have made a mistake in his handling of troubled running back Lawrence Phillips in 1995.
"Even today, I'm not sure I made
the right decision in regard to Lawrence Phillips," the former Nebraska football coach says in "Faith in The Game." "He has done nothing to this point to indicate that he is willing to make changes after having been given another chance," Osborne says.
Osborne, who retired in 1998 after 25 years as the Huskers' head coach, says in the book's introduction that writing it provided a formal sense of closure to his experience as a football coach at the University of Nebraska.
In the book, published by New York-based Broadway Books, Osborne touches on some of the troubled players and difficult times he encountered during his tenure.

Osborne said drug use among his players was rare overall, but marijuana and alcohol used had to be dealt with more frequently.
"I was proud we never had a player arrested for selling or using drugs," he writes. "We avoided any major drug scandal."
Osborne also speaks of former Nebraska defensive lineman Christian Peter, now a backup defensive tackle for the New York Giants.
Peter is a recovering alcoholic who had run-ins with the law while at Nebraska. He was drafted by the New England Patriots in the fifth round of the 1996 NFL draft but was cut within days when the team took flak because of his off-the-field problem.

Starzr coach, 16 games into career, resigns
SALT LAKE CITY — Frank Landy resigned as coach of the WNBA's Utah Starz Monday, less than one year after taking the job.
Layden, the former coach of the Utah Jazz, was 2-2 with the Starzz this season. He will be replaced by assistant Fred Williams.
"I think I have succeeded in doing all that I feel I possibly could and can do," Layden said. "I'm passing the reins on. We're changing the face of the team. We've changed the attitude of the team and I think we're headed in the right direction."
Layden took over the team July 27, 1998, replacing Denise Taylor, and won only two of 11 games last season.
Williams has been with the team since the 1998 season. He was the head coach of the women's team at USC between 1995 to 1997.
