Potential transfer (to here) ------ Jonathon Rose - Husker

From what I've read, seen, heard - it is more family persuasion than it is Auburn. Drug related issue - needs to get out of the crowd.

 
Is anyone else worried about this guy? He got dismissed from Auburn...you know...the team that paid 180,000 dollars for Cam Newton. He doesn't sound like a Bo Pelini guy.

If Bo is bringing him in, he is a Bo Pelini guy and we should trust in it. If there is one thing Bo has done an exemplary and entirely respectable job of, it's been running a clean program and keeping people accountable. The same head coach that showed Quentin Castille the door out and had enough of his brother defaming the program with his deplorable adulteration should be trusted if he's giving the okay for this kid to transfer into our program.

 
In Bo we trust. I agree. If Bo thinks he is alright then I have no problem with it either.

+1. Could not have said it better myself.

 
I think this reflects how much we're struggling to get CBs in this class. Depth could a potential problem if we don't start getting some commits at that position. This is one possible quick fix.
We still have Minter would be a sure commit. And if he is anything like his dad i'll take him.
Glad that you brought Minter up. I was doing some missions work in Lincoln this past weekend at the Salvation Army. Some of the guys (all high school age) were playing basketball. I just wanted to relate to them so that they would trust me a bit more, so I chit-chatted with a few of them. A few of the kids went to Northstar with Minter. They said that he has a horrible attitude and has actually caused a few other players to transfer to other schools. One of the kids even said that Bo came to talk to Minter and things didn't go so well. He said that Minter ended throwing a few swear words Bo's direction. He said that Minter says that he will end up at North Carolina. Again, this is just from another kid that goes to high school with him. Take it for what its worth.
if minter is this bad then to hell with him, we dont need a player like that in the husker program. and i firmly believe that bo wouldnt offer a kid that acted like this. sometimes it only takes one or two to become a cancer to the team and bring the team down. sounds to me that minter is one of those kind of kids

I kind of doubt this. Bo can't come talk to a kid about his attitude because it would be a recruiting violation.

 
@JHokanson: Jonathan Rose is officially headed to Nebraska to finish his career.

And so everyone's clear, he sits this year and plays next year.

No matter what happens this year, 2013 looks like it's set up to be a special year. Lots of experience across the O Line, D Line, Martinez' senior year, Cross and Abdullah at RB, Green and Seisay (among others) at CB along with Rose, up-and-comers at LB...

I hate to look ahead, but with the schedule we have and the guys coming back, if we don't make a big splash next year I'll eat my hat.
