Visited OkSt recently and visiting KState next weekend. He's close enough could pop up, but it does seem odd. 1 Quote Link to comment

More worried about guys that are coming. Quote Link to comment
Huskers93-97 Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 Win this game. Pick up another nice commitment this week. Play competitive football next weekend against ohio state and everything will take care of itself. Quote Link to comment

Redux Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 Things getting fiesty in recruit threads. Everyone needs to keep this in mind: This class is probably going to change dramatically by February. With all the turmoil surrounding the current staff it's anyones guess who is still here after signing day. Not just that, but we are 3-3 on the year in year 3 of a rebuild. Recruits aren't stupid, they know that's not good. So we are probably going to lose some guys we thought were locks no matter how this shakes out. Recruiting comes down to 3 things: 1) Results a staff can point to 2) Stability the staff can tell them they can count on and 3) Playing time to get to the next level. Right now the best sell we have is #3. 2 Quote Link to comment

Mavric Posted October 12, 2017 Author Share Posted October 12, 2017 Hank Bounds apparently hosted the 11 OVs with their families and the entire football staff for a catered meal last weekend. Not something that usually happens. 1 Quote Link to comment

A comment like this, tells me that is A) True and B) There is a chance Riley will still be here. 1 Quote Link to comment
Caliborn72 Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 Interesting, I initially took it the opposite way, Matty. Thinking it was Bounds’ way of showing recruits that no matter what, Nebraska will still have familiar faces for the recruits. But I can see your point and that it might be a sign that Riley will still be here. At the very least, Riley proved to a lot of national writers that Nebraska could still be a top destination for recruits. I know his last two classes finished similar to Bo’s, but this class started off with a bang and I think it would have only gotten better if the product wasn’t so poor. Riley and some of his assistants used the advantages here perfectly. No more lazy recruiting excuses from our future coaches. 3 Quote Link to comment

If Bounds was thinking Riley would still be here he would leave him to do his thing. Why meddle. But if he is thinking Riley "May" not be here its a good idea to have Riley and staff present with the recruits to break the ice and help him build a relationship with some of these guys and their parents. He is simply hedging his bet. 1 Quote Link to comment
NM11046 Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 Bounds would not have had the entire fb staff attend the dinner if all he wanted to do was show the kids we will suport them no matter what. Quote Link to comment

Eh, I'm not sure you can make a conclusion on that either way. If he has all the recruits and none of the coaches, that would seem to raise some pretty big questions. Especially since the coaches only have a limited amount of time with those recruits in town. Quote Link to comment
