  1. Haven't seen any. Pretty tough to get here from much of anywhere for an 11:00 am kick. Ah I see that makes sense, but with zero visitors that day wouldn't a kid want tons of exposure or one on one time on his visit? This would be the opportune time for that, I am thinking more of the midwest kids like that DE from KC or some other midwest kids we are after.
  2. Alright thx Mav, do you think we have a shot at him or should we just wait and see? Kind of tough to tell. I think we're in the mix but I don't think we're at the top of his list. Not holding my breath on him. Yea it seems we are slipping with Darnay for whatever reason. I hope to be wrong though. Do we know of any visitors for Wyoming yet or do we not have any currently?
  3. I believe it was that Darnay didn't take the SAT yet or something like that. His dad shot that down later, I am not sure if that is the rumor, I just remember people talking about it.

  5. I mean if we schedule Kentucky or Vanderbilt or a lower power 5 team instead of Wyoming on our schedule, I think it would look way better because we would have one easy opponent and it would show we aren't afraid to schedule one tough and one unknown p5 school. We don't control those teams seasons, so if they have a good season that makes us look good. If they don't, people will see we still have 11 p5 teams on our schedule, and not a lot of teams can say that anymore. If we scheduled the likes of USC, Oregon and Oklahoma State for our OOC that is going to beat us up for the whole season and we would probably drop two of those three games and lose two or three in conference because we would be so beat up from it. I am fine with one tough OOC, one cupcake and one semi-good team whether it be a lower level p5 team or a good non power 5 team like Cincy or Boise and the teams like them.
  6. Who was the last five star recruit to commit to NU? Didn't Bo get only one in his tenure here. I am not sure if this is right but wasn't it a running back by the name of Aaron Green. I am not sure if he was a consensus five star or just a five star according to ESPN. If anyone can tell me if we got any other five star other then Aaron Green in the last few years. Its great to get a five star at least once every few years, so this weekend is maybe one of the biggest recruiting weekends in some time.
  7. What happens if Fresno State beats Nebraska?

      We would be insanely "Riled Up." But not in a good way.

  8. Nebraska- 49 Fresno State- 17 Rushing- 267 Passing - 255
  9. All of them. Probably 4, 17, 24,27 Also you should add in the guys that yell at the refs for not calling holding on the opponents o-lineman until the refs finally call holding.
  10. So, did we send him two offers? In all seriousness this guy looks like a stud, and coach Stew has great ties around the Maryland area if I recall correctly. Also is he a CB or Safety or is it undecided at this point?
  11. I hear they make good QBs too. Need some Tebow time. Oh, don't forget they make excellent punters too, because they can chase down the punter returner really easily after a booming punt! Also they make fine special teams players in general, so you can just put them at whatever position in need! Back to crutin' I say only take a really good TE or else give the scholly to a different position. If we take another TE we should probably go after a really great blocking one to help out the run game.
  12. playing coy for when he breaks the Internet and becomes the first 5* WR to commit to Nebraska Purify is our best commit at wr according to 247 composite I believe because he was borderline 5 star. So JL is a big time wideout who will be in the rotation in 2017 if he pledges N.
  13. I don't think I'd agree that we're set at DE. I think we have a lot of players on the position, but whether or not they're quality is another debate. Graves is a 4* player close to Lincoln, we need to do a better job of not letting them slip away. People thought we would take 5 wrs in this class, so three DE isn't that big of a stretch. Although with Grimm gone we might take 5 total, but I'll let the coaches decide that. If this kid is good enough why would we not take him, We could always move someone inside since we are behind on DT numbers.
  14. 500 mile radius kid. We are set at DE but I wouldn't mind adding him, and I think he is Missouri's to lose.
  15. If Ozigbo isn't our running back, this year won't be Devine.
  16. Donald Trump wins either way, he can't lose. If he wins he gets president, if he loses his name and company will boom because he got his brand out to the public. History is made either way to, if he wins our first lady is the first foreign born first lady in a long time(since Adams) and if he loses "make america great again" will be 2-1 in the election.
  17. I say Keith Williams is suspended have the year without pay, He meets with a counselor daily and can watch practice on occasion. He comes back week six and is monitored by a team manager to make sure he gets a ride home.

      I still like the Yakuza punishment. We could leave *half* a finger.

  18. I really hope so but I think Clouse is a bit too much of a homer on a lot of these. There isn't a single Crystal Ball for us and I haven't seen any national guys say we're leading. I think we're in his top group and could still land him but Clouse would be in a pretty small minority of guys who cover recruiting. I think we are on good terms with Lewis after the visit. I am not sure if the DUI influences anything on his decision. If KW is suspended we still have a shot, if he is let go we have a little chance of landing him, same with Calvin.
  19. Is it just me or did Nate Gerry look bad against the run last year. I saw a few times he was in position to make a great tackle, also he was the last one to beat, and then he whiffed on the play and din't make the tackle. I like Nate Gerry in the pass but he needs to improve tackling in the open field. Gerry is great at pass D, lets just hope he doesn't get ejected for staring down receivers and get hit with targeting. I think the new year gives him new life and he improves on run tackling, also I think with the new year he doesn't feel like he has a target on his back after all those targeting calls on him last year.
  20. On the news about Keith Williams..... Insert Stephen A. Smith Rant.

  21. Keith Williams loves Nebraska, he didn't imagine there was a place like this. He grew up in a rough part of Louisiana and also lived in some bad neighborhoods. He absolutely loved Nebraska and was committed to staying here because of the great people. Now, he makes a horrific mistake, one that could cost him his job. A man who has been through a lot now has made a terrible mistake. I hope he stays in Nebraska for rehab and finds a job to help his kids, but he is done. I love KW but its over its over its over its over. I hope rehab goes well, and he makes smart choices in life. One time, he had to drink so much, he almost lost his liver to get KJJ. True story, he would drink with keyshawn senior downtown and it payed off immensely, we got KJJ. That's not the only reason we got him, but it was important he got to know Keyshawn senior well. But if you even THINK about drinking a little over the limit, you need to have the judgment to call a cab or an Uber. So long to a great recruiter and all the best KW.
  22. All right thanks Mav! I say we take these positions for the remainder of the class: 1 Running Back 2-3 Wide receivers 2 Defensive Tackles 1 Linebacker 2 Defensive backs 1 Offensive Tackle 1 Athlete/ Safety(If someone doesn't qualify) 1 Tight End(if we take only one db or DT) I put 3 wrs, I am counting the 5 star transfer guy, if we don't get him we take two WRs in my opinion. Also open to thoughts on this list, I don't have names just positions for discussion.
