Mavric Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 (edited) Sounds like the new coaching staff will have a different way of recruiting the fabled "500 mile radius." Each coach will have a designated area within that radius. Assigned areas will be: Nebraska and the Dakotas Kansas including Kansas JUCOs and Kansas City - Read Oklahoma and Northern Arkansas Colorado - Bray - Also has Arizona and Dallas Wisconsin/Minnesota Iowa Illinois Missouri - Langsdorf Indiana Brian Stewart - Also has Georgia, Florida, Maryland & Virginia Keith Williams - Louisiana and Los Angeles Reggie Davis - Houston The Kansas guy will pick up Kansas City so the Missouri guy can devote more time to St. Louis. They haven't assigned coaches to the regions yet. Edited May 5, 2015 by Mavric Added Indiana per OWH Quote Link to comment

corncraze Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 Well, Charlton Warren is almost certainly our Colorado guy. Anyone have any idea where the rest of these coaches will be assigned to? Also, didn't Bo originally have something like this set up? Could have sworn he at least split up different Nebraska, Kansas, South Dakota, Iowa and Missouri areas between the coaches...

Mavric Posted January 21, 2015 Author Share Posted January 21, 2015 Yeah, Warren would make a lot of sense for Colorado. I don't know if the previous staff had anything like this. Definitely not as detailed. Warren obviously did Colorado for the last year and Garrison did a lot in Kansas in Missouri but I thin that was more just their primary recruiting areas. Sounds like these 500 mile states with be a "primary" recruiting area for each member of the new staff and then they'll have a "secondary" area outside the radius. Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted January 21, 2015 Author Share Posted January 21, 2015 World-Herald Big Red @OWHbigred now The 500-mile recruiting radius will be the #Huskers' focus. @Coach_Riley's plan of attack: http://bit.ly/1yHY8hV Quote Link to comment
Hedley Lamarr Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 Plenty of talent in that area to be a top 15 program. Build a solid base and cherry pick from across the country Quote Link to comment
QMany Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 That Northern Arkansas arm caught my attention. Is there much talent there? Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted January 21, 2015 Author Share Posted January 21, 2015 That Northern Arkansas arm caught my attention. Is there much talent there? I thought that was interesting as well. It would include Fayetteville and a few other cities but not Little Rock. Doesn't seem to be a place we've gotten much out of before but you never know. Quote Link to comment
GSG Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 That Northern Arkansas arm caught my attention. Is there much talent there? Idk about talent, but that area covers 7 of the top 10 most populated cities in Arkansas Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted January 21, 2015 Author Share Posted January 21, 2015 According to this, Arkansas had two of the original Rivals250 for 2015, tied for 22nd. They finished with four but only one of them was in that area. GSG probably has a good point about having some population base. Quote Link to comment
Stumpy1 Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 Didn't NUance make a graph with the 500 mile radius on it along with all the top250 players on it and where they went? I know I just seen it and can't seem to find it. Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted January 21, 2015 Author Share Posted January 21, 2015 I think it was saunders45 and someone else. Quote Link to comment
TITANIC VS LUSITANIA Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 World-Herald Big Red @OWHbigred now The 500-mile recruiting radius will be the #Huskers' focus. @Coach_Riley's plan of attack: http://bit.ly/1yHY8hV Did you know that the corridor Minnesota-Iowa-Missouri-Arkansas-Louisiana looks like a guy with a chef hat 1 Quote Link to comment
