This letter is from KoKo Tacha SAAC President at the University of Nebraska.


Joe - Thank you so much for coming to talk to the student-athletes here at Nebraska. I think it was great for all of us to get to hear about the struggle that you experienced and the challenges you overcame to get where you are today. I have been hearing a lot of people say that they are now buckling up every time they get in their car. Sometimes as student-athletes we feel invincible, and you gave us a good reminder that we are not, and that the number one way to protect ourselves when getting behind the wheel or stepping foot in a car is simply to buckle up. We appreciate your time and willingness to come educate us. I know that your video and story affected a lot of us and I am grateful that maybe it will come to protect or save one of our friends, or ourself, in the future. Thank you!

KoKo Tacha Student-Athlete Advisory Committee President January 28th, 2007
