I'm a bit "meow" on him.  What do you and others love about this guy?

Probably a mixture of good weight on his frame and that NC State as of recently has developed DL talent like crazy, so if they want him, he projects well. 

Is this really happening?

But all of the players in the 2020 recruiting class don't actually count until next years class. That's what this group of signees is- 'next year's class.'

 

Obviously early enrollees are different, and I've heard they can be counted against the previous class and that appears to play in here a little.

 

But if his scholly doesn't start until fall, that is when all the other incoming players start too right? So why is this not a regular part of the class?

Because it is setup as a new fiscal year. Fall 2020 & spring 21 are under the same academic schedule. Which is where his scholarship would fall.

Serious question, when was he around Laquon Treadwell? Treadwell played at Ole Miss in college and Walters was at Colorado that entire time.

My bad, I dunno why I was thinking Treadwell.  Tre’quan Smith.. My point stands, he’s developed receivers at every coaching destination. Also, has had more receivers drafted than previous coaches.

Hes good at taking pictures with phones, so thats why hes never in the shot. Honestly, i dont like Walters. Listening to him talk about young wrs last year he was never ready to trust them enough to know offense to play. Well, why are they not getting better? Youre the wrs coach. No worse than putting in older players that didnt know the offense well. What are his credentials in developing wrs? Anybody know? What good wrs has he produced? Asking seriously.

Paul Richardson, Laquon Treadwell, Ryan Swope... 7 total 1000 receivers, two of which were each schools first ever. You guys love to create narratives. Maybe he’s trying to help his position group right now and that’s why he’s not on the trail. He’s a good coach, a coach who instead of leaving frost and co for a head coaching gig, stuck around and came to Nebraska. 

Shows him as a 5.5 3 star on rivals, but 247 doesn’t have a composite.

I tried not to laugh, but I did.

Tell that to the person that provided the results.  I'm going to trust the doctor that ran the program and his grad students.

Here you go, a detailed article discussing how what you’ve said above is impossible. I could’ve used google scholar and really debunked your BS/

Also, sure.. I’d love to talk to said doctors, if you did it at UNO, I know the guy that currently runs that program and 3-4 of his GA’s. I’ve also taken said hydro weigh-in 3-4 times while prepping for shows.

I wonder what happened here. From Baton Rouge...top 200 player...

Once an OU commit, might still be some interest.

Last year we didn't let some guys sign if there were academic concerns.  So that's one possibility.

 

I'm not trying to insinuate that's the case here.  Just there are a lot of factors that go into these things and we often don't know a lot of them.

Kind of hope this would be the exception with the extra scholarships we have, but maybe the graduate and transfer market will be a little kinder this year.

Don’t really like these threads, especially after the season we just had, but Miami has had 18 decomitts. Unsure of how many were in state and are considering other instate schools. Also goes to show that a lot of recruits don’t have faith in Manny staff.

Decomitted from Tennessee, hoping the staff makes contact.

Well good luck to him. Next man up. 

It was more so disappointment in the fact they would drop someone that marginally in the rankings.

It actually isnt hard to consume 2500 in a sitting, especially if you're a top-notch athlete.  

 

You can consume 2-12oz steaks, a baked sweet potato and a cup or two of brown rice and you are at your 2500 mark.  

 

Hell, Im not a top notch athlete and I can eat that much. 

I wasn’t stating that the consumption of 2500 calories is hard, but in a 3-4 hour period you body can really only consume around 40-50g of protein, which is why bodybuilder eats 5-6 meals daily to spread out the macros. 

Also, 2 cups of brown rice, 8 oz of sweet potato and 10 oz of steak are around 1200 calories. So again, people often overestimate the calories consumed when they trying to bulk.

I also can guarantee an athlete who has been training for 4-6 years isn’t going to put on 30 lbs of muscle while losing a percentage of fat.

Wow, so much piss and vinegar.  You really show how little you know with these comments.  Training table after practice was targeted at 2,500 calories alone.  I guess our team nutritionists did it wrong, too.  I arrived on campus every day at 7 AM and film kept me there until around 9 PM.  We had one scheduled lift session every day where the trainers set the lifts.  If you wanted to specialize on anything then you went back.  That's the difference between chumps and champs, put in the time or shut up.  Sure sounds like what Frost is trying to restore.

I can guarantee that a nutritionist would not have you consume 2500 calories in one sitting because you would not consume most of the macronutrients. Please do everyone a favor and stop blowing smoke up all of our a$$es

S & C had nothing to do with Martinez's bad knee that was fully visible with a brace.  Martinez had to two step turns which is the hesitation people witnesses.  Opposing coaches had no problem identifying this issue which adds even more bewilderment why Frost stuck to him when he had become ineffective at running laterally and repetitive failing to deliver on time to his teammates.  Martinez has an old man knee and it seem to have been worse over the course of the season.  His delivery mechanics were very poor and did not reflect his throwing motion the previous year.  He often short armed his throws with no thumbs down follow through, which made even simple passes needlessly more dramatic.  The sudden decline in his throwing motion hints at a shoulder injury, which again has nothing to do with S & C. 

 

Wandale had a hip injury that was serious enough to hold him out of practice yet he was allowed to participate at game time.  Clearly he was not anywhere near full speed against Iowa.  Instead of Duval, maybe fans should be asking about the athletic trainers letting injured athletes continue to play.

... A shoulder injury from lifting heavy would be from the S & C. Should’ve had him focus on staying around 215, instead of ballooning up. A bum knee can be from improper form when heavy lifting too.

By the way, the athletic trainer leaves injuries that can be played through up to the head coach. 

If your quarterback is already heavy enough to take hits from what was a terrible OL at the start of the season, tell him to work on the accessories important to him being healthy... A la what Alabama did with Jalen Hurts.

Doesn’t “no love lost” imply a bad relationship when used correctly?

I think it implies, “make what looks like a good coaching choice, and I’ll be back.”

Is now a composite 4 star on 247.

I can sort of see that in HS. But, when you miss out on going Div 1 the first time because of grades... then you still might not be doing what you need to do in the classroom,  no excuse. 

Or they just fell that far behind in HS and were struggling to catch up in JUCO.

Normally I wouldn’t do this, but coming from the person that uses 4 periods for an ellipsis? The irony is real.

Those ratings aren't any lower than guys at Iowa, Minn, or Wiscy. 

What has been our weakest point on defense? The linebackers. Who were the lowest rated recruits on defense? The linebackers that are currently starting.

I honestly don’t believe that we are so low on talent on defense. I simply believe that Chin has not been able to coach these guys to execute what he thinks he wants from them. Let us face it, the defense always looks confused and there are gaping holes in many key locations in the field. If it sounds like a horse and looks like a horse, it is a horse and not a zebra. With the same token, I refuse to believe that all our players on defense are talentless. It is up to the coach to get them ready and simplify the play book for them.

Sorry, but...

Mo Barry, composite .8397

Collin Miller, composite .8496 @ OLB.

Alex Davis, composite .8058.

DiCapario Bootle, composite .8280.

The older players on the field have not developed well, and people really need to realize other than Lamar that there isn’t a single composite 4 star who honestly will probably play safety in the nfl.

OK...the play in question is at 23:30.  Please  tell me how Hixon is just standing around watching and had anything to do with the sack.

I agree that it wasn’t Hixson’s fault. I was trying to figure out how it could be when the LBer was a spy.

Also, Wilson is definitely the weakest link.

3 minutes ago, BigRedBuster said:

What sack are you talking about where Hixon whiffed his block?  I've watched the 40 minute version and don't see that.

 

 

He wasn’t paying attention. The play Martinez loses 20 yards and doesn’t throw the ball away. It definitely wasn’t Hixson’s fault. I also can’t imagine why they would bench a RS SO who has been given 9 starts, if anything he’ll compete with Wilson at G.
