I don't like the sound of that because he doesn't know who his position coach will be (which he said is very important) and he won't know by then... I suspect TA&M

Just keep your fingers crossed that he doesn't commit to one of these schools and cancel his visit here... It happens often.

Shawn Eichorst. November 30, 2014. Makes me believe he made a bad decision or something. But I shouldn't speculate on something like that. Or maybe just not eligible.

Just saw this...wow! Anybody know what happened? It sounds bad, but I hope he did something to make them revoke it. Otherwise I am disappointing at this decision from a fairness standpoint. Didn't SE say we would honor all scholarship offers?

They pulled his scholarship.... I am speechless. This according to KD's twitter

I just wish there was still an NCAA Football video game so I could prove who the better rb's were! What a damn shame!

This I agree with. Bussey would be most talented back on our roster. We will be fine without him though. Wilbon was a plan b or c that decommitted from vandy right? Bussey is and has always been our only guy and we have fended off the wolves until right up until signing day. Too bad we couldn't hold the sec off any longer. Kid will be special. Definitely was not plan B or C. Was a Rivals top170 guy who committed to Vandy VERY early (April of Jr. Year), then decommitted when Franklin left. We then held off PennSt and others for him. Well he wasn't our number 1 guy. Our top guy was the back from Colorado that ended up at Arizona state who plays as a true freshmen. But back to bussey. Good to hear he still considers us.Not saying it's the case but when Wilbon was committed to Vandy from April-Dec he was solid as could be...so not sure we saw him as a legit target. However we accepted Wilbon's commitment before Ballage decided so we musta been pretty happy with him. And lastly let's not act like Ballage did anything special as a true freshman, he ran for 112 yards all year. He didn't do anything special but he is going to be. I don't know if you watched when he did get to play but he looked impressive. I think he is a better back at this stage than Newby is for our team, and definitely than WIlbon is for our team right now. Lol, Wilbon didn't play...not sure I would begin to compare Ballage and Wilbon today. By process of elimination, I think Ballage is better than Newby and Newby is better than Wilbon (or Wilbon would have played, if you believe that Bo always gave the kids a shot at competing to play) so Ballage is better than Wilbon... and this thread is getting out of control haha

After following Nebraska's recruiting for a while, I have come to find this question kind of funny. Maybe I am missing something, but when was the last time that Nebraska stopped "actively pursuing" an elite (meaning highly rated) recruit who had us in their top 2 or 3. I would be surprised if they were not actively pursuing. That being said, Oklahoma does have 5 OL recruits and maybe Nebraska just hasn't been in a position where they could not take another elite prospect at a particular position since I began following. I am sure you guys will remember situations and slam me for this, so please enlighten me! haha

Are we just trying to make ourselves believe we wouldn't be hurt if Bussey didn't come to Lincoln? I think the name Wilbon sounds better than the name Bussey.

One did this morning. ... Well said haha

Can recruits commit during the dead period?

But boy is he a load to move. That is the kind of body that wears down defensive lines.

According to his coach, he almost committed to Nebraska on his visit. I like our chances with this guy.

Do you all think that Riley is going to keep going after dual threat Qbs?? I am curious how he is going to mold the offense.

My favorite school to take recruits from goes Colorado then Wisconsin.

Looks thrilled!! haha

Hude day tomorrow! 2 Big time play makers! Hope you like Coach Riley! GBR

If Riley is able to secure Bussey... "You're a wizard [Riley]."

Will see Bussey tomorrow

I am very surprised that Riley has been able to retain so much of Bo's class! Very impressed with Riley! Hopefully the Bo to Wisconsin rumors are as long of a shot as I think they are, so that Bo doesn't recruit them back.

He met with Riley yesterday? I don't think that happened.

"H-Back" is nothing like RB. EDIT: Blitz covered it. Ah I see! Thanks!
