I’m with you on that, I have to think our staff thinks we are in a decent position on cornerbacks, including the 19 recruits. They have some designations we haven’t clarified yet, like Newsome to corner and such. Getting some other weapons in the offense and filling some depth with huge potential in other spots on defense is just as important as CB. Plus who knows if this kid would have come to Nebraska if we had done everything possible, or if he would have panned out.

Granted these are all projections, as far as immediate ideas. But we seem to have a real plan. It has been said that Frost intends to take the best talent at the time, but I doubt he takes a 4 star QB right now if he is the best available. We have identified areas of need, WR, pass rush, and Secondary as areas of immediate need. These areas have been more than covered with our aggressive approach to recruiting. In the past our approach to recruiting hasn't been able to define talent like our new staff, so anybody with some stars has been deemed a desirable recruit. Now we have built relationships across the country with recruits who maybe didn't fit in initially with the same thought process that early enrollees did. I honestly think the early signing period helped everyone involved minus the recruits who get massive coaching changes between signing and enrolling periods. so in conclusion it helped the universities football programs and virtually no one else I was going in a positive direction and then... the rules happened

from what you posted about Andrus Peat in the NFL a few weeks ago, we could use a 6' 5" guard to have a pro offensive line..... I wonder if we don't string some guys along a little bit, because I doubt Canty ends up at Garden City without our influence. Just something to think about, obviously no real absolute knowledge.

relaying the information could have been much more concise. thank you regardless. interesting to see the disparity between 247 and rivals with the bumps/downgrades.

posting the info instead of linking could have been much more concise.

Robinson jumps from #207 overall to #177 overall per 247 sports composite rating.

Benhart jumps from #186 overall to #132 overall per 247 sports composite rating.

Wandale jumps from #156 overall to #112 overall per 247 sports composite rankings.

Houston made it, source is twitter. Can't find much if any twitter presence from Bivens atleast recently. Hopefully he made it.

6'8" 420 lbs would be quite the Tackle

If you had a doll I could show you. Never said Nebraska did, we are past this.

Mack only started two of those games. edit- the lsu game took a decent toll on his completion percentage. 57% down to 51% That game was bad....

I already conceded to you that my prejudice for the transfer was due to Heupel... So maybe we can steer this conversation elsewhere, because I believed it to be over yesterday. Wimbush might be better, but is he really.

.

You brought up the latter. Definitely bring someone in who could start----Don't think Wimbush is that great...btw If we found a grad transfer QB who Frost thought was better I.E. Jalen hurts, are we in a similar situation then? By similar situation I am talking about experience ability and eligibility as of now on the roster. Not if someone is better out there on the grad market.

UCF should not have a better QB than we do, never said they did. In terms of eligibility, experience, and ability relative to the specific tier (conference) of football I would say we are close. As far as the grad transfer bashing, I gave up the argument because I admitted to just not liking Heupel. Still Hate Heupel!!!!!

That escalated quickly...

Just for clarity, Nebraska is the ugly girl in my analogy.

I think we are hoping they get lost in the shuffle. And Nebraska was always there. Just like the ugly girl you don't want to take to prom, right up until the hot girl leaves you the day before prom. Then there she is the ugly girl who always wanted you.

Logic is there +1. Like I said before I believe Mack is enough to keep them relevant, but I guess they need some extra arms to keep healthy. Still hate Heupel though!!!! infinite +1's

Fine have it your way, I may also be showing some disdain for Heupel in general... But in your comparison lets remember we are NEBRASKA. Having better quarterbacks in general is something that should be a given. I liked how Mack played when he had the chance and he would slot at or better than Vedral if we are being really unbiased. But I guess the point of this and any under lying emphasis I would like to further push is: I want UCF to be good, I want Heupel to do bad.

Without turning this into a UCF thread. Ill just say that they are in an identical situation that we are, and I dont see us looking for another juco/grad QB. But we can just agree to disagree

This is where Heupel crumbles... Going for the next best thing, regardless of what he has. Dont say Nebraska should be going for the next best thing, I agree. UCF is a built program right now. Nebraska is still rebuilding. You always have to pick your spots on the grad transfer market.

That's the problem with the Athlete position. Trying to decide who should be rated higher? These two guys are apples and oranges. If you put them both in the RB category then maybe you have a decent comparison.

17-18 Tide won the championship 16-17 Tide lost- this is the team they had rated as the best
