  1. So, has THE RHULER not found a place to live yet? I see he’s still cooking on a hot place and living in the lounge. Guy stays busy - probably sleeps about 30 minutes a day!
  2. In honor of their “county” scholarships?
  3. If Caleb has an offer, he surely long ago knew whether he would be N. He probably feels like not falling in his father’s shadow. Not sure what Damon wants but he may feel it is Caleb’s decision. Kid should be given the latitude to choose freely. I think he’d thrive in Lincoln. He may never be a starter but can have a rewarding Husker career experience nonetheless. Much like his father. GBR!
  4. The class is filling fast. He better commit or get left out.
  5. Can’t have too many great athletes with size and speed and heart.
  6. If Gradney sticks, we’re at 14 commits. With a few more likely in the coming weeks. I’d think 20 is about the max for the class so allowing for say 3 more soon and 3 in the fall, add a few transfers in / out, this class is coming together. Im not into the star ratings. I care about athleticism and heart and mind. It’s impossible to tell how any of the players truly fit and satisfy the coaches preferences. But Rhule is clearly a plan ahead and follow the plan type. A few highlight films without a great deal more information about character and grades and family and attitudes etc. doesn’t tell enough for me to judge much. I like what I’ve seen. I want to watch a season or even two and I’ll see more.
  7. Two thumbs up from me! He just has the look of a good football player!
  8. At that pace, be plenty of energy in reserve! That’s the kind of enthusiasm that can’t be beat! Lol. Hardly working! GBR!
  9. FB / LB / Safety? Good athlete and decent speed.
  10. At this point, NU doesn’t yet have a new Chancellor does it? This is part of it.
  11. At 2550 lbs, this guy IS the pipeline all by himself. Talk about a wall of protection! He’s probably taller laying down than standing up. No way DL can move him out of the way. But the QB may have to be 10’-6” tall to get the pass over the lineman! Just imagine if he simply ‘roll blocks’ his way down the field , crush blocking and literally pancaking defenders. More than Big Red - he’s HUGE Red!
  12. Three brick walls? Better get your head examined by multiple professionals! Literally.
  13. If he has half the FB skills of his daddy, he’s a super player. Can probably play many spots on either side of the ball. Be a ‘jack’ of all trades. We could really use a clone of Neal!
  14. I think Rhule suggested you build teams from the talent you have basically and over time (years), you add the right athletes and turn them into excellent football players. You scheme around the players you have, not the ones you wish you had. Or roughly that’s my impression of Rhule’s approach.
  15. Oops. Sorry. Thot I was in the Allan topic. My bad. It kind of applies I suppose. Lol
  16. It appears the current staff was pretty happy with current roster of tail backs. They recruited/signed only one guy, a high school kid that arrives this summer/fall. From all reports and comments, each one had done fairly well. I have not seen much about the coaches looking for more transfers to help immediately anyway. Maybe, 4 scholarships to that spot is adequate? Time will tell. I’d guess they hoped all would stay and vie for snaps. I’d expect at least 3 will get playing opportunities and the chance to become the dominant guy but that may not ever happen. Multiple guys should be the norm, as it typically has for years. Allen is from Louisiana so the chance to go home probably sounds good to him. A broken collar bone didn’t help him either but he’s had time to reflect. I hope he decides to stay but if not, so be it. Good luck to all concerned.
  17. Another thing is the coaches have to play more players. Basically you have two or even three starters. Even good players won’t be future pros without developing 2-3 years. Jumping around is very risky. I’m of the belief Rhule is not running off any players he feels have real chances to stay and improve and contribute. Guys who are ‘play me now or I leave’ are more likely than not destined to be disappointed. Probably less than 15 guys that are in the category of pro prospects amongst the juniors and seniors levels. And those are only ‘maybes’ after another season or two of significant improvement. Another 15-20 of the recents transfers and recruits have that potential with more time developing. There is no place they’d go that will improve their odds or shorten the time frame. Imo. Playing time does not mean developing or even improving if the guy doesn’t compete for his position.
  18. I’m may be overreacting but it seems Husker Nation is not overreacting. Very odd. It’s feels like the fan base is confidently lacking confidence. It suggests the fan base has finally relaxed and settled in comfortably and quite content with winning a championship in the offseason. We’ve been fully mesmerized by DRhule. Now, when we look real ‘average’ we say nothing almost as though we saw nothing. Perhaps the Emperor’s new clothes are quite striking in an imaginary way. We almost saw something today. Perhaps we should stick to the touch football rules. It is easier to envision great plays? Would it be overstating the obvious to say the defense is fast, hungry and loves to find the ball. Now, if only we could play opponents more like us, we could win championships! GBR! Maybe I’m under reacting?
  19. I expect to see some very good athletes make some above average type plays. Lots of miscues with so many new things that are not ready for prime time. But it should be fun. Curiosity should be everywhere today.
  20. Oh— they can look that up with you phone which of course is being ‘monitored’ for your personal ‘safety’ as well. Big brothers look out for us all ya know!
  21. Actually may benefit NU as this means we can pay for travel for more recruits instead of relying on them to pay their own way. That adds up compared to schools with lots of nearby talent presumably.
  22. I will alert the state patrol boys to ‘escort’ you there safely!
