"Offering" and "seriously recruiting" are two different things. Even the Husker Online guys have commented several times that their biggest criticism is that the current staff doesn't really seem very interested in taking JUCO guys. Not that they haven't looked around but they haven't put a lot of effort into it either. They say the staff really seems to only want guys who will be around 4/5 years. But they point out that taking 1-2 JUCOs each year at positions of need really helps fill in roster gaps. Would be really handy to have taken a JUCO OT or CB sometime in the last couple years.

I made several gripes about that the last 2 seasons with this staff. There were obvious positions where we needed to add Juco/Grad Transfer Quote Link to comment
junior4949 Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 The general consensus is player performance plus recruiting ranking. The older guys in the program are on what their third DC? On field performance can be difficult under these circumstances. Quote Link to comment

That's 100% on the coaches. 1 Quote Link to comment
Enhance Posted September 22, 2017 Author Share Posted September 22, 2017 Interpreting the stats a little bit here. Most people (62%) seem to think judging a team's 'talent' is dependent upon some combination of looking at the recruiting rankings plus their performance on the field. That said, ~51% of you believe Nebraska is 'talented.' To me, this suggests people put more weight on the raw potential of the players when judging whether or not they're talented and that most people in turn believe they are talented. Fair statement?
