  1. The top 5 in-state HS football players hold offers from Nebraska. When was the last time that was true? 2019 appears to be a great year for in-state talent.

      The top several Nebraska hs players should *always* get offers.  For too long now we've been slow playing some of the top Nebraska recruits in the hope of getting them to walk-on.  This tactic has bitten us in the ass several times in recent years, causing us to lose top notch recruits from Nebraska because some other team offered them first and got them to commit.  /gets off soapbox.

      I'm not saying there haven't been mistakes (probably a lot, and the thing with Bryson Williams still ticks me off), but you have to draw the line somewhere every year. Some years that line might be 2 players. Other years it might be 6.

      I do think if you have a player of equal talent in Nebraska and equal talent anywhere else, you always go for the one in Nebraska. Maybe even if it's lesser talent, because their motivation to help the team will likely be higher, and the chance they transfer lower.

      Don't the top players in Nebraska also all have offers from Purdue already too?

       

      And considering a couple of those top players are transplants, I don't think we'll bat 1.000, but we should do better than .500.
