Does that mean no portal QB? DR starts next year and DK redshirts Quote Link to comment

I think this is setting expectations that are way to high. We need to collectively pump the breaks on saying Nebraska is going to develop an NFL QB in just two years, something that has never happened in the history of Nebraska Football. Let's hope he's good enough and Nebraska surrounds him with enough talent to have a 9-3 season at some point. 1 1 Quote Link to comment

With the the pieces we bring back next year on defense that is a possibility just like you said will Nebraska surround him with enough talent to succeed on offense. Quote Link to comment

Nebraska has placed a few NFL QB's. Jerry Tagge, Vince Farragamo (sp?), Dave Humm.....maybe others that i can't recall right now. Brook Berringer was also on a lot of draft boards before that plane crash. to say it never happened in Nebraskas history is just wrong Quote Link to comment

Nebraska doesn't have the pieces on offense yet. Hopefully the receivers develop, the line continues to improve, and they find more talent at Running Back. They still need a lot more to become a 9-3 or 10-2 team, especially with the schedules in the new B1G. 1 hour ago, commando said: Nebraska has placed a few NFL QB's.

It would be unprecedented if Nebraska is able to do that. Quote Link to comment

The only way that is possible is if the player doesn’t commit to a college right after HS and sits that 1st post HS year out and then enrolls at a college the following year. NFL rules dictate you have to be 3 years out of HS. 1 3 Quote Link to comment

I'm trying to temper the sky high expectations Nebraska fans have and to not put so much pressure on this kid. Nebraska is a football team that can't field punts - let alone return them - so let's focus on the little things before we project that an 18 year old recruit revives the corpse of Nebraska Football.

Every good recruit we go after people on here are saying we only have for 3 years. Bookie comes to mind. I don’t think he even going pro period let alone early 1 Quote Link to comment

If he doesn’t want the pressure, then don’t take the money and play D2 or D3 The real point is that Nebraska Football lacks the talent to meet the expectations fans are placing on him. They need to fix a lot of problems unrelated to the QB to get to a 9-3 or 10-2 season in the new B1G. Start fielding punts, then start actually returning them, then try not to rely on the QB run game so much, then hopefully the coaches learn how to properly manage the end of games, and then develop a pass rush that doesn't rely on blitzing, then try not to lead the country in turnovers, fire Satterfield... the list goes on. Until they improve all areas of the team, reasonable expectations of Nebraska Football should remain at the 6-6 or 7-5 mark. 2 Quote Link to comment

It’s no longer amateur student athlete ball. The expectations and demands are on steroids now. 1 Quote Link to comment

Disagree. Most people want a bowl game next year, and we were a decent QB away from a bowl this season. 2 1 2 Quote Link to comment
