dylan Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 Sarao was #1 by far on their LB board. If his grades are good enough, he's at Stanford. If not, we were his backup. If we accept Santos, Sarao is admitted is the assumption as stated above. that seemed to be the case prior to camp. i don't think it is any more. supposedly he was smaller than expected and rose looked significantly better. i don't know whether we could have pried him away from stanford if we wanted to, but i don't believe we're still trying.

What would anything about Rose have to do with Sarao? Rose is a 2012 commit. Link to comment

Rose is a 2012 commit. agree, not sure Rose would affect their decision on Sarao in any way. the coaches wouldn't shy away from signing a quality LB this year on the chance that Rose survives 2 more years of being recruited. too many things can still happen w/ that.

I think if Sarao would have committed we would have only taken one, but since we are not going to get him we will take Santos and Lewis. Link to comment

I could see us taking three, if Moody decides to jump on board we could still take lewis or santos or maybe both. Moody would be imediate help, which would allow the younger LB's to learn the system and bulk up. Link to comment

Moody would be imediate help, which would allow the younger LB's to learn the system and bulk up. With our limited scholly's for next year, I don't see ANY way we take 3 LB's. We only have 19 departing Seniors, so we only have 6 spots left. We lose 3 WR (if you count McNeill as a WR) this year, so we really need to take at least 2. Then we need 2 DE's, another DT, probably one more DB (or OL if we get Hobbi), a TE and of course a RB. The only way we take 3 LB's is if we have attrition at LB this year, we will obviously oversign, so expect some attrition as the year goes on. I could see a TE, QB and RB at a minimum leave the team this year. 2012 recruiting is going to be really interesting, we only have 12 juniors on scholarship currently so that will likely be an extremely small class.

dylan Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 What would anything about Rose have to do with Sarao? Rose is a 2012 commit. i'm familiar with their classes. as stated, my understanding was that they were less than thrilled with sarao. i also thought the comparison to rose was interesting. sorry if you didn't.

Apathy Posted July 21, 2010 Share Posted July 21, 2010 Will be visiting Nebraska on Thursday July 22 with some family. Apparantly we are his #1 choice and he could quite make a decision after his trip and he's been wanting to come up to Nebraska for quite some time. His top 3 in this order are: Nebraska, Mizzou, and Arkansas 1 Link to comment

RockyMountainOySker Posted July 21, 2010 Share Posted July 21, 2010 Not that it matters but I wish rivals would get off their butts and rate this guy. Scout gives Santos 3 stars and ESPN rates him a very solid 79 (3 star). Link to comment

Scout gives Santos 3 stars and ESPN rates him a very solid 79 (3 star). FWIW Tyler Moore is only a 78 on ESPN's rating system. Everyone says how great Moore is, well ESPN thinks even higher of Santos. I'm cool with that. Link to comment

AndyDufresne Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 Any news on this kids visit? Talman at HI stated that David, his father, and two brothers drove all night to Lincoln last night and didn't arrive until today. I wouldn't expect to hear much of anything today. Link to comment
