2024 Transfer Portal Ins/Outs

Very nice job done by the Husker staff, if I may say so.  Addressing all areas of need, some starters and some depth/rotational guys.   :clap   

2 athletic freaks on Def - Nwaneri (Missouri) & McCullough (OU) - Young defenders that will get to the QB - both may have been 5 stars out of HS...

Got a Punter
Got a Long Snapper

2 stud wideouts/Receivers for Dylan - Hunter (Cal), Key (Kentucky)

QB2 - Dylan's backup (and a good one - Marcos Davila)

New OT - Pritchett (Alabama starter, 5 star kid, sky is the limit)

New OG - Rocco (Notre Dame) likely starter or rotational guy / depth

Some DLine beef - Moore (Miss State), George (E Tenn State) 

Talented LB - Watson-Trent (Georgia Tech) - much needed area

Some DBs and a third WR

Agree. Only area of weakness Rhule didn’t address sufficiently, in my eyes, is DT. Not sure the 2 DL we got in the portal will be anything but depth. We likely needed a plug and play starter. Otherwise, outstanding portal class.

Agree we didn't get a stud replacement for Nash.  But, it did take him awhile to become a stud.  So don't forget about that.  I think with the 2 new DL guys it will bring out more competition and the cream will rise to the top.  And also, with Butler as DC, we might see more concepts using 4-3 in certain Big Ten games without a NT of course.  So the more bigger beefy guys you have for a rotation, the better.  Keep them fresh.  They will get better.

Just saw that Spindler didn't allow a sack in 400 pass attempts last year.

First, that's an amazing stat regardless of your level of competition.  Then, imho, even more so looking at who they played.  Hope he brings some winning attitude with him.

Wake me up when that average rating score looks like Oregon's. The high ranking is mostly just from quantity; the quality is about the same as we've had for the last 20 years.

I would add to that, let me know when we get an incoming class that actually develops into greater than 50% solid contributors instead of our usual 23% hit rate.

If you go to ON3 team transfer rankings Nebraska is ranked 40th compared to 247's 5th.  That is a huge discrepancy.

The portal rankings are inexplicably more erratic than the HS rankings.   Pitts #1 CB last season (Ryland Gandy) is rated around 45 by 247 and 115 by ON3 at the CB position alone.  Those should be his overall rankings.  Indiana got a steal.

I don’t believe we will ever be averaging 50% of every class being major contributors. I don’t think anyone actually does that. 
 

What we need is for the ones that end up playing a lot, to be contributing at a much higher quality level.
