Ya, really don't understand locking the threads.

 

Anyone want to speculate how many LB's we take in this class?

Up to 7 is my guess

 

Here's the article it comes from.

I find this to be quite offensive.

 

"It's really out of Oregon and Nebraska at the moment," he said. "With Oklahoma, I'm going to go up there and see what they have to offer. If I like it there, it'll be Oregon and Oklahoma."

So we're 3rd.

Pretty sure he meant it will be Oregon and OU against Nebraska

It doesn't matter if they back count them, 85 is still your end game, they had to have cut a lot of players to be able to get down to 85. It's ridiculous.

Would be sad if he doesn't get let back on the team. He could have left and been at another top program working out, instead he decided to stay here with hope that he would be back.

Sounds like Langsdorf is going to make him our #1 priority over the next three weeks after the dead period.

Believe he will be a Husker.

"Might" be visiting. Not set yet. They are supposed to visit Missouri that weekend. Well see what happens.

We did offer him finally. Gibson is looking around because Urbz might not let him play QB.

 

 

I don't get the whole "Co-DC" stuff. Why do you need co-leaders. Too many chiefs in the room can really hurt a team. Someone needs to be in charge.

Here is the one friend move. Maybe he had to give Banker the title for the pay, but Hughes is going to run the defense. I am happy with the new staff, but have questions about Bankers ability. BUT will give him a chance to prove me wrong.

Other way around. Not sure what would make you think this.

 

Why? Jones is a project as a passer. Doesn't fit what MR is looking for IMO. I think there's a reason he hasn't been contacted yet. He's hoping we recruit him, we would have if we wanted to. I think most of you just want the stars and the ratings bump, don't think he fits. There's a reason we offered Burrow first.

I don't think the offense is going to be a mirror image of MR at OSU, because our talent doesn't fit that IMO. I think jones fits the type of offense that our current roster calls for. But that is obviously complete speculation on my part and you could very well be spot on with your thoughts. He's an intriguing athlete though.

 

But who MR recruits for his first QB will be a very good indicator of the identity of the offense that he pictures going foreword.

That's why I think the immediate offer of Burrow was telling, and we haven't been in touch with Jones. They tried really hard for Burrow

It's just as a GA I believe. Only three spots left on the staff. WR DL and RB. You don't want to give up any of those spots for a TE coach. The special teams coach took one spot, not enough spots left

Absolutely can not believe we blew this. I'm talking old staff of course

What does everyone think about Steele as Co DC/LB Coach/Co RC at 900k and Ed Orgeron as Co DC/DL coach/ co RC at 900k?

Would be a solid hire.

One of Peyton Newell's HS coaches is on 247 and he said It was going to be Kyle yesterday.

Holy sh#t what an epic thread. How have I missed this!! I'm all caught up. Let's do this thing!!

 

 

A few reliable people are saying announcement today

The ones saying look for an 11AM press release?

A few reliable people are saying announcement today

This has exceeded my hopes so far. You guys are good! The bar has already been set pretty high, so if you're still getting in on this, you'd better bring your "A" game.

 

 

 

 

 

 

I'll let this run through Wednesday, December 3rd. I'll announce the winner on Thursday. If the University makes an announcement before then (highly doubtful) the contest stops at the time of their announcement.

Oops I posted in the wrong thread, my bad.

Just got off the phone with one of my sources. For his safety I can not give you his name, but I can tell you that he is VERY close to the program, actually I'll go ahead and say he's a coach on the staff.

We all know Bo is a trickster, well I've been told he is pulling the biggest prank yet, and Shawn is in on it. They thought it would be funny to give the fans what they want and "fire" Pelini to get everyone stirred up. A couple recruits would "decommit" to make it look real and the entire state of NE would be in chaos. Right now the university is sitting back laughing at all the rumors, I've even been told they have hired guys like Tressel to fly into Lincoln and shop at HY Vee, so fans would see him and start rumors. It's f'ing pathetic that the university is having a laugh at our expense!!!

Im told that they won't announce anything and leave us in suspense for the next month only to run Bo out on the field just before game time for the bowl game and shock everyone (he also said that Bo will be wearing a shirt that says #9winsisgoodenough, but I have a hard time believing that) The players have no idea and they thought this would be a good time to "weed out" players that weren't committed to the program. Take it FWIW, like I said it come from a coach on the staff (I will NOT say his name so don't ask)

A&M fired their DC yesterday and Sumlin and Bo are buds. Only question would Bo want to jump back in that quick.

Jim McElwain coached CSU to their 5th 10 win season since 1960.

 

Dang, only 5 10 win seasons in 54 years? I think we need a better coach than that.

Ya, we good here

Trying to think about this from all possible angles.

 

I just don't see him being 100%. Not only does the knee have to heal and feel better, but then he needs time getting comfortable and confidence with all his jumping and cutting.

JT Barrett suffered a sprained mcl last week during the Penn State game. He looked just fine last night. Depends on the level of severity for Ameer, but from everything that has come out it was not that bad and he was asking to come back in.
