I could see our top 3 targets now ending up at USC.. Johnson Lenoir and Lewis

Silent commit to Ohio State and then USC earlier this week. Picked UCLA today. So far from him coming here..

Clouse, and Matt are never to be trusted again!

Honestly will never buy a Rivals subscription after that bogus talk. We were 4th plain and simple. Mattyice get rid of your crap source.

Sooo.. we probably should have been going after Jeff Thomas.. STL kid who looked great at UA game

So.... where are these other videos for Holmes??? Lol

Josh Harvey just stated we won't get anybody. Unbelievable... Crickets from Matty and Clouse the rest of the day?

Calabasas twitter just posted. GBR fans you already won. You got Gebbia and KJJ. Pretty sure we aren't in contention with Holmes and they know it..

Bleacher Report video leaked of Darnay committing to USC. Yes I know there are probably different endings. Also why have a video if you're committing at the game?

 

Sounds like USC sold mom on playing close-to-home and sold Darnay on being the next Adoree Jackson.

We're selling him on being the first Darnay Holmes at Nebraska.

Which is great and all.. I get it.. He could become his own brand at NU but you don't get the exposure if you can't win big games. Now do I see him getting the exposure next year at USC that he would at Nebraska? No way. He has a plan of playing 3 years and being a 1st round draft pick. No matter what Nebraska says we don't do that as well as Ohio State or USC.

Darnay to USC

Sarell to Stanford

Filliaga to Michigan

Calvin to Nebraska

No offense to Chris, but was he really the next Olineman on the board? That ain't good.

Wasn't overly impressed when I saw him in team camp. Farniok and his little brother have been more dominate when watching live.. Just my 2 cents. Congrats on the offer and if he flips hopefully he will work his butt off!!!

USC offered his girlfriend a scholarship for track this week apparently..

USC gets my CB.

I get the love for USC. They are a hot team with a stud QB and a great business school. Coaches worked with Adoree and had him exploding at the end of the year. I think dad may want more playing time. Not sure what else he wouldn't like.. I actually thought it would have been him voting for USC.. I do think OSU is out.

He did with Martin Andrus

 

 

Any truth to us offering his GF for Track and Field?

Wow I missed a lot for the 5 hours I was gone.. She probably does have a track offer here as she's one of the best sprinters in California after her freshmen year. Obviously though UCLA and USC have better programs and she would only be with him for year so it shouldn't affect his decision.. On the news that the family is split is crazy but fun news. Mom and GF = UCLA Dad= USC and Darnay= Nebraska or Ohio State.. I think dad thinks USC will get him to the pros the fastest with the same kind of role Adoree played for them the past couple years. GF has been all about UCLA and took a visit with him there. Thinking Darnay likes OSU with the way they send players to the league. I didn't believe that Nebraska had a shot until yesterday. He loves Donte Williams. He has 3 Calabasas teammates here. Playing time on both of sides of the ball would be easy. Johnson Sr has sold Darnay that Riley knows how to utilize him on offense and special teams. Easy for his parents to come to games with Gebbia and Johnson SR flying back and forth and most likely buying a house or two. Let's face it Darnay commits to NU and he's the biggest thing in Lincoln since.... Dude would be the face of this team for 3 years. He'd be the Jabrill Peppers/Adoree Jackson/ Charles Woodson of Nebraska.. Do I think he commits to NU? No. But if he does he puts this program at a different level.

Not doubting you, but you follow freshman female sprinting in California???!!!????

Haha no I don't.. but last spring when it really seemed like Darnay would be N I followed him on twitter.. He always posted or retweeted about her.

Welcome aboard!!! GBR!!!

Quick summary. Schaefer believes we have a better shot at Johnson than Lewis. Feels like Lewis is leaning towards USC. Watched the Rose Bowl with Carr and other SC commits. Has no idea about Holmes. Seemed hesitant that we are in it with no official and his parents not coming to Lincoln or meeting Coach Riley. Said that having the papers in at Nebraska does make it interesting because most athletes don't do that unless serious. Thinks Sarell goes to Stanford. Says Stanford is just tough to beat in recruiting and feels like Nebraska did everything they could. Talked about Lenoir possibly going to USC as well opening up the door for Johnson to Nebraska. He likes Johnson more as a prospect because he could play some offense but thinks Lenoir is better on D. Doesn't say much about the OT from Texas other than we won't get him. I think he thinks Calvin is N but just because he commits isn't the end with him.

The recruiting starts about the 17:00 minute mark of the podcast. Greg Johnson is about the 18:00 minute mark. Lewis is covered about the 19:00 minute mark. Holmes is at 22:00 mark ... thinks he is considering but a OSU lean. Lenoir around 28:40.

I'd put my money on Darnay being N

How much?

My next four paychecks

Must be unemployed.. : ) Seriously though as much as I'd love Darnay coming to Nebraska I just don't see it. Parent never came to UNL and we didn't see a coach visit him before the dead period. He did post Michigan and Ohio State visiting. I'd be stunned.. and so excited!!

Had a periscope tonight.. USC and Nebraska. For the first time I'm starting to believe he's going to USC

The kneeler?

Guessing Rose-Ivey

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hope Bray sees something. His offer list is concerning

He didn't - that's why he offered him. That's why he was the first guy i the kids house for an in home when recruiting opened up, and Riley went with him.

 

(sarcasm)

Must be why other P5 coaches did the same!

I don't see the need for 2 middle line backers in this class when we have glaring needs in other areas.

The kid may turn out to be a baller, but I'm not excited about this commit.

He's an OLB

You could be right. 247 had him listed as an ILB when I checked today.It wouldn't be the first time this staff has had guys playing out of position if he is a ILB made to play at OLB.

I'm still underwhelmed, regardless.

Curious, what are the other times?

 

Also you're underwhelmed, what didn't you like about his film?

Bando should have been playing the Sam while the kneeler should have been at Mike. Gates should have stayed on the right side.

Who did you want to protect the QBs blindside? I would love to hear. Tyron Smith played right tackle his whole career at USC but plays left tackle for the Cowboys. Stupid coaches

 

When can we un-relax? This class is falling apart.

 

We've lost two commitments from guys who were projects.

 

If we lose Gebbia or KJJ, you can start panicking.

I'm betting Lewis was talking about him and Jamire Calvin. Bookie has stated Florida was his leader. Don't feel great about Greg Johnson. His brother committing to USC adds some pressure on him. Hafiz is probably N but I doubt Lewis has talked to him. Wish we would get one of the tackles.
