Saw this on the presser that NU is shutting down HS recruiting for 2022 and looking hard at the Juco ranks to fill the gaps...Great idea.  Think it will help tremendously.  However, a poster had mentioned was this also due to HS kids showing significantly less interest in NU, we are ranked liked 75th and 12th in the B1G and IIRC some local prospects have already passed on NU.....

Told my friend at Michigan game that when the 4 star players in Nebraska don't have Nebraska in top 5 (D. Woods/D. Jackson) then I knew Frost was really done. To win at Nebraska you need the top high school players in the state committed.

The average of #4 -#14 is pretty close.

 

The rest has a lot to do with total # of recruits.  Penn State and Ohio State #1 and 2 isn't surprising.

 

The staff is looking for the right pieces and has done pretty well late in the process before.

I read an athletic article where Frost said 2022 class is going to be 15 players or less. This could just be saving scholarships for transfer portal. 

With family that are Texas fans. One thing I've learned about hiring head coaches from another team is they feel obligated to bring assistants with them at current job or they are unemployed looking for work. Saw it with Herman, Frost, Strong which is why Texas went Sarkisian route so they can bring in Assistants that are top of the line as position coaches. Look at special teams coach at Texas Jeff Banks makes a million a year cause he is supposedly a top notch recruiter. Will it work I have no idea. But what I want is a coach that is gonna use transfer portal like crazy, hire coaches that can recruit Midwest, and bring in top position coaches. Like Mikey Joseph WR coach, Jake Peetz RB or QB coach or OC. Doug Colman special teams coach, corey raymond DB coach.  Who that coach is I don't know. 

Herman had a drinking issue at Texas. He was called vodka Tom. So he needs to show he’s cleared that issue up.

I do like the idea of Peetz, even as OC... also would like to see Corey Raymond return. Do you mean Mickey Joseph as WR coach? 

Ya first thought was OC but was trying to show he can fit in as QB/OC or RB coach. Yes on Mickey Joseph As WR coach. Agree on Raymond. Point is we can upgrade assistants with just alumni and former coaches. 

Lsu offensive coordinator jake peetz as RB coach (Nebraska graduate)

Mike Joseph as WR coach 

Doug Colman special teams coach (now with browns as special teams assistant) 

that improves coaching, team, and recruiting 

Frost being fired depends on who Alberts can get as a head coach. If he can get someone like Jeff Hafley at Boston College, Matt Campbell at Iowa State, or Billy Napier at Lousiana Lafayette then I'd say fire Frost. I just don't want to fire Frost and end up with another Bill Callahan. 

Is there a box score for the game? Trying to see stats for Anderson and the freshman. 

See if Luke fickell or Matt Campbell have interest with big 12 losing OU and Texas maybe Campbell is ready to move doubt it

Jake Peetz OC LSU build staff around him that can recruit Nebraska and Midwest like Mickey Joseph who is receivers coach at lsu national championship team had 3 1st round receivers 
Peetz previously served as an assistant coach for the Carolina Panthers, Alabama, Oakland Raiders, Washington Redskins and Jacksonville Jaguars.
So nfl experience 

(he graduated from Nebraska)

Zac Taylor Cincinnati bengals head coach
billy Napier Louisiana Lafayette

That is awesome!  Going to be really interesting to see if he comes back.  He's in a great spot leverage-wise with 2 years of eligibility left.

Highly unlikely he comes back. Twins wouldn't have drafted him unless he committed to signing with him. He was projected to go round 6-8 so picking him this early means he's gone.

Yep, heard his number was north of $1 Mill. More like 1.5. Feeling good about him, we will need him because I'm sure Cade will be taking the 3rd round money. 

Is Chase Mason in? Saw lot of articles on him more lately then Christo and ESPN had him in top 250 ranked players. 

Christo is good as in. Its Chase Mason who we need to worry about.

Is Povich getting that good of draft grades? He's only a Jr. Steil at 1st. 

Following up. Baseball America has Povich ranked 274 overall. In 2019 pick 274 was 9th round with a signing bonus of $152,300

Side note Justin Seely was an assistant at Texas A&M for 11 years. Be interesting if Bolt brings him or as above poster mentioned Childress back to Nebraska.  Side Note. Logan Sartori IF/OF for A&M has entered transfer portal and went Lincoln Southwest.

Perry- Christo- Shanaman would be an awesome starting 3 however don't believe everything youre hearing about Christo. Posturing to go to play college ball is the negotiating tactic of most high round high school draftees. That ploy can bring MUCH more in initial contract money. 

 

Look no further than Bubba Starling. I hope Christo ends up here, but round 1-2 money would be difficult for almost anyone, including those with deep roots from staying here. Starlings charade went to the extreme point he actually practiced with theHuskers.    https://www.kansas.com/sports/mlb/kansas-city-royals/article1068340.html

 

I like our relievers next year and getting mid week games again finally (If Kevin Warren somehow doesnt screw that up again) will help kids like CJ Hood be ready for the post season tourneys. 

Exactly. I think anything over a million will have us attention. Sounds like a situation where he wants to go to Nebraska and they'll have to make it worth his while to get him to turn him down Nebraska.  If he is available after round 3 I think we have him. 

Hallmark has an extra year of eligibility since his junior year was 2020. That be huge if he came back.

If we can keep one of Christo or Povich we will be in awesome shape. Anyone know how Christo is leaning, I don't have any local baseball connections any longer. Wouldn't blame either kid if they took a chance at the next level - both have more than earned it. 

Christo is in I believe. Pitching they’ll be fine next year. It’s the offense. Replacing hallmark, schwellenbach, roskam, Acker.

Povich will be rounds 6-8 I believe. This website has him round 5 not sure if reliable. He's likely gone. Cade Povich | Lines.com

Rotation

Christo (Freshman)

Olson

Perry

Midweek

Hood (Freshman)

C Everitt

1B Steil

2B Chick

SS Matthews
3B Anderson

OF Banjoff

OF Mason (Freshman)

Any help?

Looks like a 2/3 seed team I think 2023 may be the year Nebraska makes run with Hood and Christo have a year under them and Anderson and Matthews are juniors.

Wasn’t Bolt a Head Coach at a lower level before coming to NU as hitting coach? I know it’s not D1 experience, but he makes up for that lack of qualification with other qualities. Of course, time will tell.

Texarkana Junior college 2008-2011. Did very well.

Feels like Bolt is another Erstad. Needs to get big assistants.

Cliff notes?

Does A&M finishing almost dead last in offense for sec concern anyone with Bolt? Fact Moos said he wants someone with head coaching experience and Childress let’s assume is out based on recent tweets. I think Heefner or O’Connor. If assistants are on the table I think Bolt or Arkansas hitting coach Nate Thompson former volunteer coach at Nebraska.

Ah, gotcha.  Yes, I posted this up in another thread a few days ago when it initially came out.

 

This is behind a paywall so can't post the full details but here is a quick snapshot of the candidates D1baseball put together.  D1 has big writeups on all the candidates I listed.

 

Rick Heller

Childress 

Bolt

Seely

Nate Yeskie-Oregon State asst coach

Ed Servais--ain't happenin but interesting thought

Dan Heefner--Dallas Baptist--would be an awesome hire he's built DBU into an absolute powerhouse.  He's gonna be really expensive as both OU and Baylor took runs at him but couldn't get him to sign due to assistant coach pay.  Money wouldn't an issue for NU obviously.

Matt Deggs--Sam Houston State--Coached under DVH at Arkansas and was also the hitting coach and crootin coordinator for Childress at A&M

Nate Thompson--current hitting coach at Arkansas

Thanks its a mystery. I went to Sam Houston, Matt Deggs stock has gone down since the Super Regionals. Heefner would be solid at Nebraska. A&M was ranked bottom of SEC in hitting so question about Bolt.

I have one.  Where are you seeing the update at?  I was just on the website and didn't see anything.  If you could post a link. I'll give it a read and post some generalities.

Thanks may be old update but this was the tweet that made me think new update. twitter
