“Pelini was accompanied on the home visit by Cornhuskers recruiting coordinator Terry Joseph and tight ends coach Barney Cotton.”

.. Oh really now?? RT @HuskerInsanity: Barney Cotton to coach TE? 4th paragraph: http://tinyurl.com/bsm8f25 #Huskers

"... #Huskers Recruiting coordinator Terry Joseph and tight ends coach Barney Cotton". http://bit.ly/14MO4Dc Wonder if this is true?

Barney Cotton to coach TE? This article is from January but read the 4th paragraph: http://tinyurl.com/bsm8f25 #Huskers

Looks like they all cite the same source, but hopefully officials announce something today about the move.

All sorts of speculation, but the Twitterverse is talking like Barney will be moving from OL Coach to TE Coach.

Anybody have an inside scoop on this?

Sounds like he's sticking with his commitment to ULL.

Spoke with Devin Scott after his Nebraska visit. Didn't indicate one way or another, but I think NU is sitting good:

 

Take this kid, and let Veii go....

 

What was this kid's 40-time...

4.4 according to Rivals page.

I know he's a long ways away from deciding, but the fact that his Twitter display pic is him in a Gamecock jersey just sucks.

Can't stand Spurrier.

Being recruited as a CB.

Would've loved to see what Heard could do with more carries. He'll be a great back wherever he goes.

Just hypothesizing: It's been said that the players who don't understand the playbook won't see as much playing time as those that do. What if that's the issue? Heard is a natural talent when the ball is in his hands, but I'm curious how well he knew blocking schemes, where to lineup, etc.

Also, it concerns me quite a bit that he wouldn't have spoken with the coaches prior to announcing his transfer. Maybe he did? Maybe he just told a close family member and they leaked it? However, if he hasn't gone to the coaches yet to discuss matters, that says, to me, that he doesn't know how to address the problem.

As a whole, it's not ideal to lose a quality back like Heard, but I'm a little more concerned that our momentum seems to be trending downward within the last week or so (Dom Walker, McWilson, now Heard). At the end of the day, I hope that Nebraska continues to search for team players that want the competition to make themselves better.

It's the good life and it only get better

Good Life=Nebraska? Hope so.

If we miss on Clark and lose Walker, is there a chance we offer him?

 

Badet and Kevin Maurice seem to be good friends and would appear that Badet would like to come here.

 

Just hypothesizing.

After his recent tweets, my question was answered for me.

Im really starting to think he will be our first commit, maybe even this weekend

To add to that hypothesis...

Peyton Newell #40 ‏@p_newell

One of my childhood dreams will come true tomorrow

Visit went well, but he's still visiting with Auburns coaches tomorrow.

If we miss on Clark and lose Walker, is there a chance we offer him?

Badet and Kevin Maurice seem to be good friends and would appear that Badet would like to come here.

Just hypothesizing.

@michaelbruntz: Per @SWiltfong247 Nebraska has received a commitment from Top100 JUCO OT Matt Finnin. More at http://t.co/e0njUAya

Seconding Amacc's comment.

James Clark ‏@GotEmCoach2

So Coach Fisher From Nebraska Comes in My Room and I Had To Give Him a Beating in Madden

Take that FWIW.

http://www.goleathernecks.com/ViewArticle.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=12000&ATCLID=204975400

According to this, he's a junior right now. So he's got 1 year left of eligibility?

Anybody know anything about the kicker visiting Nebraska this weekend that may be transferring in?

@GotEmCoach2: Had a Fun Time at Nebraska! Great School, I Loved it!

Committed to Iowa according to his Twitter account.

Best of luck.

Tweeted that we are out of the running. Said coaches called him yesterday to tell him that they forgot to update him that we won't be taking a JUCO TE this year.

Also RT'd one of the responses he received from his original tweet:

"@MCollins_72: Commited two days ago now Arkansas wanna call. Damn!!!" Can you decommit yo ass need to be in the sec

To be fair, he did RT some others in support of Nebraska.

Tweet from Maliek this morning:

BlaCC ‏@MCollins_72

Commited two days ago now Arkansas wanna call. Damn!!!

Seems like we've been going after slot receivers (Clark in particular). How does he fit with the rest of the class? Too talented to pass up? Do we take Clark if he wants in too?

Love to have him be a Husker, just curious how he fits in.

Clouse tweeted that he committed.

Welcome Mr. Collins!

Nate Clouse tweeted Newby would be deciding between Bruins and Huskers on either Tues or Wed.

I don't think it's new info but its nice to know its confirmed.

EDIT: my apologies to Amacc who posted this 10 minutes earlier. Didn't see it.
