I don’t think that’s rumor. Trev didn’t like Peed running the old NIL, as it was poorly ran. But, Peed had the $ so he held a lot of power. Finally, Trev got the backing of Omaha area and other boosters and was able to pull a power play on Peed. That’s why the new NIL out of Omaha was started and the one ran by Davison is basically Peed.
The Peeds are funding the new one: 1890

DeBoar COULD end up being a really good coach and so far that looks to generally be the case. However, I would have a lot of concern that his success might not translate to big boy football. Winning in NAIA, MWC and PAC 12 aren't exactly screaming accomplishments. B1G and SEC are a whole different ball game.
He was the OC at Indiana in 2019 when they had the 3rd best offense in the Big 10. I think he's a long shot, but would be a solid get.

We've primarily been in Nickel as the base defense this year. That's why Gifford has gotten so many snaps. Kolarevic played some snaps at that spot against NW, but moved back to MLB when Henrich was out against ND and GSU.
Right, but to clarify my question. Do we simply not have DBs practicing in a nickel package? The staff is asking Gifford to be Jojo when he clearly is not.

I am wondering if we have played any nickel or dime coverage this year? Are the only options we have at nickel being Gifford, Wright, and Kolarevic? Looking at the PFF grades/snaps vs. GSU, Gifford played the majority of them and clearly is a liability on slot WRs. Surely we have DBs practicing a traditional nickel package?

Plenty of options yet.
Wright (health)
Wright posted a few weeks ago that he was medically cleared.

Anyone know if their is a timeline for Wynn to announce? I haven't seen any reports on how the visit went. If we set a visit with the JUCO kid, I think that would be pretty telling.

Not great offering a Juco DT in the middle of May.
It appears he just became academically eligible. Oregon State and Missouri just offered as well.

Looks like we may not be as confident with Wynn. Offered a JUCO DT.

I wonder if we canceled Goods’ visit or if he did

If kolaravic is playing nickle the defense is in big trouble
43 minutes ago, Mavric said:I can't wrap my brain around that either. But that's where they had him this spring.
It's my understanding that Jojo played that role because he was talented enough to be able to cover a slot WR and also play the run. I believe the staff said replacing him might involve playing more nickle with a DB and Kolaravic when teams are in the I or pro set looks. Javin Wright is also a player to watch now that he is cleared, he is supposed to fit that spot well.

Rumors swirling from guys on the radio that we have added/adding another skill position guy. hot names include Marcus Washington from Texas & Deion Smith from LSU.
Jordan Addison confirmed!

We are likely done at OL. We added 2 players before spring and reports were rather promising from the OL most of spring.

Could be somebody retiring from football. At least I would think so given what I’ve seen. Too much portal activity going on.
Also NIL can fund tuition so extra guys could "walk on" but take NIL money.

Also Sean Dillon and Ryan Callaghan are following Jordan Addison, but that seems like a hail marry at this point.

Fair to say an even swap for an oft- injured, Casey Rogers?
Production wise, Drew has better stats. Body wise Casey is 6'4 300 vs. Drew at 6'2 280. Drew has been more durable though, so assuming he stays healthy, I think it's equal if not greater.

Just to be clear, Drew is a typical 3/4 DE, correct? So, if we need another D lineman, it would be at Nose Tackle?
Drew told Rivals he committed because the coaches told him he would be a 4-3 DT.

Edge guy that Chins and Travis Fisher are following. Unclear if they are new follows as we offered him in high school.

We definitely need the OTs to get healthy, but I'm not going to panic over a scrimmage in which the Oline was shuffling a lot of players around to find the best 5.

I'm not saying walk-ons would be denied NIL rights, but can we pull scholarships to walk-ons once they have been given them. I thought I read somewhere that once your given a B10 scholarship it can't be taken away.
The scholarships for athletes recruited are guaranteed per the ruled of the Big 10. Walk ons can be given semester scholarships that are renewed each semester at the team's discretion.

Apparently Lamar Goods’ visit is scheduled for later this month. I wonder if we slow playing him.

Yeah just saw its supposedly a done deal with a "massive" NIL deal.
I seriously doubt we would have any shot, but ESPN says it's about professional development and rooted in having a new OC, QB, and WR coach. So maybe!
Who should our next HC be?
