  1. I don't who the starting RB will be next year. You would think it would've been between B. Jackson, Lucky, Glenn, and now L. Jackson, with Brandon having the inside track. However, with Coach Callahan bringing in K. Wilson, and Jackson's injury, the coach doesn't feel real solid about the RB position. Why else bring in a juco RB for only two years. You know Kenny's not coming in to redshirt.
  2. Fwiw. I've been told by several people " who subscribe" over on a pay site that they were told when Lucky and Glenn run sprints in practice they are neck and neck. You would think that Lucky is faster than Glenn, but according to people who've watched them run against each other this isn't the case. Maybe Lucky is having trouble adjusting to playing against good-great competition here at Nebraska, because in HS Lucky played against horrible competition to say the least.
  3. Major commits to Nebraska, and then says he's taking another trip.
  4. Henry, is going to commit on his visit tomorrow.
  5. USC, is playing the we're not going to offer you, until another high profile school does. Then we'll offer you because we can and that's that. Must be nice.
  6. He's trying to set up a visit. He's the cousin of the Colts Edgerran James.
  7. This is still the same Vince Young who was knocked around by ( below. 500) Texas A&M along with being out gained yardage wise by Texas A&M this year. Sure Texas still won, but they should've blown A&M out. A&M was below. 500 record wise. (4-7) Oklahoma St, had Texas on the ropes before Texas got it together. Vince Young is a great QB, but not one of the best. IMO. As for USC. Notre Dame, Fresno St, Arizona St and back to back 3-8 losing seasons Arizona Wildcats, all had USC on the ropes this year. Going into the fourth quarter USC was only up 28-21 over Arizona. USC needed a push to beat ND, and 5 turnovers in order to beat both Arizona St and Fresno St, had they not had this push and 5 turnovers, well you know the out come. USC would've lost at least 3 maybe four games. Again great win, not trying to take anything away from Texas, but not that big of a deal beating USC. IMO
  8. I wonder how many National Titles Nebraska would of had, if the games played down in the Orange bowl over the past 20 something years, were played in Lincoln, in Jan instead of Miami, in Jan?
  9. If USC offers him he's more than likely going to SC. A coach at USC told Green to call them before he commits.
  10. Refs were bad on both sides. So it's lame for anyone to use that as an excuse. Hell in the paper and the media Michigan, was just going to roll in and beat Nebraska's a$$ without breaking a sweat. No one gave Nebraska, a snowballs chance in hell. Well the media, paper, and even Michigan can talk all the trash they want or come up with all the excuses they want, but the bottom line is, Nebraska came in and scored 18 points ( in the second half) to beat that A$$. Nebraska, wasn't even suppose to put up a fight in this game. Mark May, even said Michigan, had much more talent, and would roll Nebraska and score more than 40 points. Michigan fans you've been reading way too much into your teams hype. This game proves it.
  11. Michigan, has only score 40 points or more, twice this year, and it was against two 4-7 teams. Eastern Michigan & Indiana. In every other game Michigan only averaged 25 points.
  12. No surprise. Rulon's not coming to NU.
  13. Josh was commited all this time... It sure didn't didn't take much push from Coach Prince. I hope from now on "100% commited" or not, that this staff will keep their options open on all positions.
  14. Michigan's secondary all range from 5'10-6'0. Hopefully some of our bigger & taller WR's will be able to take advantage of the size difference.
  15. Here's what a 4.17 40 time really equals out to. The accepted standard to convert a hand-timed event to its automatically timed equivalent is to round up to the nearest tenth of a second -- in this case 4.17 -- and add .24 seconds. 4.17 would equal 4.41. Most football 40s don't go on a starter's pistol but on an athlete's motion. The average reaction time among elite sprinters (from the gun to the moment they exert pressure on the starting block's electronic pads) is about .15 seconds; for a football player with little track experience it probably would be closer to .2. Add that in, and you have 4.61. So in the real world a 4.17 would equal 4.61. And if you happen to be running outside you might have to compensate for wind. You could be looking at upwards of 5.0 40 yard dash out of a 4.17 handheld. The fastest 40 ever is believed to come from Ben Johnson, with the assistance of the anabolic steroid "stanazolol". His time was 4.38. Here's the read on that. The shortest distance that the IAAF, track and field's international governing body, recognizes for world-record purposes is an indoor 50 meters, or about 54 yards. It is 5.56 seconds and it was set by Canadian sprinter Donovan Bailey in 1996. There is also a world record for 60 meters -- 6.39 seconds by American Maurice Greene in 1998. But it is another Canadian, Ben Johnson, who is believed to have run 40 yards faster than any human in history. Johnson is best known for injecting copious amounts of steroids and winning the 100 meters at the 1988 Olympics in Seoul in 9.79 seconds, only to have his gold medal and world record stripped after failing a post-race drug test. Timing officials have since broken down that famed race into 10-meter increments, and Johnson was so preposterously fast that he went through 50 meters in 5.52 seconds and 60 meters in 6.37 -- both under the current world records at those distances. He went through 40 yards that day in 4.38 seconds. He was running in spikes . . . on a warm afternoon perfectly suited for sprinting . . . with a slight tailwind . . . with years of training from arguably track's top coach, Charlie Francis . . . with Carl Lewis and six others of the fastest men on the planet chasing him . . . with 69,000 people roaring at Seoul's Olympic Stadium . . . with hundreds of millions of people watching on TV . . . with the ultimate prize in sports, an Olympic gold medal, at stake. And, as we learned later, with muscles built with the assistance of the anabolic steroid stanazolol. Four-point-three-eight seconds. Then again, maybe Ben Johnson isn't the fastest 40-yard man in the world. Maybe many college players and half the NFL is faster than a stanazolol Ben Johnson.. NOT.
  16. It's not just Juco's that have to prove it. 4-5 star high school players have to prove it on the field as well. How many of the 4-5 star players that " big" named schools are going after can walk onto the field and command a starting spot right away? Not many. The two main recruiting services "think highly" enough of Purify, to name him the # 1 rated JC WR at both Rivals and Scout. About Bowman, he's had hamstring problems most of the year. But go right ahead schestev, and keep bagging on Nebraska's players and the team like you always do.
  17. http://www.omaha.com/index.php?u_pg=528&u_...3&u_sid=2082670 Maurice Purify, a 6-foot-4, 215-pound star at the City College of San Francisco, accepted the Huskers offer more than two months after he visited Lincoln to watch Nebraska play Texas Tech. He is the 21st member of this NU class, the sixth Californian and the ninth junior-college player. He might also be one of the best. "You've got a big receiver who can run like a deer and jump like a gazelle," said George Rush, his juco head coach. "He's tough. He can make all the catches. Sign him up. You're going to want to be his agent." Purify, originally from Eureka, Calif., earned similar praise from Brad Hoiseth of JCGridon.com. "Mo is a man among boys," Hoiseth said. "He's a guy with an NFL body that could step in right away and have a big impact.
  18. Freeman, won the accuracy competition at the EA Sports Elite 11, but I don't think he beat Tebow out for MVP.
