HuskerNation1 Posted January 30, 2018 Author Share Posted January 30, 2018 This thread was created just after Frost was hired, and we are about 10 days away from seeing whose guess was the closest. At the time of origination, NU was 75th to 85 depending on the service. I am still sticking by my prediction of finishing 18th to 20th. It should be an exciting finish. Quote Link to comment

Our class last year(Riley's best?) was 216 points and ranked 26th,... On 1/29/2018 at 10:26 PM, HuskerNation1 said: ...

So Riley's best class would be the "basement" for Frost's first transition class? I'll predict 20-23. Excellent, given the circumstances. 1 Quote Link to comment

Still like you said its pretty crazy that this should be Frost's worst class. I will also add that while this does happen, Elijah Blades dropping from that class would drop it down to 215 points and 27th. If you look at Riley's transitional class it sits 4 or so points below what we currently are at and well below where we are looking to finish. This could be revisionist history, but it also seemed like he had a much stronger class to start with since Bo didn't have a terrible season that year. Pretty much all of the big names Riley had this year had one foot out the door by the time Frost was hired. Feeling pretty good about this right now 1 Quote Link to comment
HuskerNation1 Posted February 7, 2018 Author Share Posted February 7, 2018 We are currently at 21 on 247 sports and only a few points behind #20 Michigan. If Hunt, Jackson or Robinson sign we should leapfrog Michigan for the 3rd best class in the BIG. Not bad Quote Link to comment

Not bad 3rd place in the Big10 would be a success, and frankly should be the spot we are fighting for every year. Quote Link to comment

I agree about third place but hope in coming years we can get to top 12 or 15. This staff has done an amazing job in 8 weeks and if they can get wins on the field in 2018 it will help greatly with the 2019 class. Quote Link to comment
