huskerfan500 Posted March 8, 2007 Share Posted March 8, 2007 again Vondre Tostensen is transfering to Millard South, first it was central, then prep, now South, I am questioning his character if he has to keep transfering to a better school, Millard South will have a nice combo at reciever Kildow and Tostenson will be hard to stop, possibly the best two in-state recuirts in Nebraska for 09 if vondre doesn't move to another state Quote Link to comment
Touchdown Tommie Posted March 8, 2007 Share Posted March 8, 2007 Do you guys have a rule down there for transferring? MN is trying to pass one....it states that if you transfer you have to sit out for half of season/year. There has been a lot of transferring up here/recruiting kids from an AAU team all to one high school. The main question is, what does this teach these kids? If they are lucky enough to receive a college scholarship and things start to not go the way they want, are they going to jump ship just like they have done their entire high school career?

huskers1 Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 Well in the article it said he is having severe family issues right now. So I doubt it has anything to do with his character. It just sounds like he is having some trouble, which would affect any young kids life. It appears he is trying his best and you cant really blame him for his family problems. His grandpa said that he has his heart set on going to Nebraska and they have a meeting set up with Callahan tom. to explain to him why he has attended three schools. Quote Link to comment
Hunter94 Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 swapping high schools and moving around (Witt as an example) has become more and more common place, as kids/parents are trying to place kids in prefered/positive spots, BEFORE they even attend college. next up, moving kids around to get them in the"right" pee-wee league. welcome to the ridiculous world of high profile, high dollar football!

Pedro Guerrero Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 This has been happening with High Profile basketball players nationally for a long time. Crap Tim Tebow's parents rented an apartment so he could go to the High School he went to. Corey Young transferred his senior year to Millard North. Kids go to different schools all the time. Hopefully this kids family can work their stuff out and people shouldn't jump on him if that is why he is switching schools. Quote Link to comment
BIGREDFAN_in_OMAHA Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 It may be a bumpy road but as long as it leads to Nebraska who cares how many detours he takes? Quote Link to comment
Ohio Pete Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 If I recall correctly, Ahman Green transferred from North to Central. Worked out OK. Quote Link to comment
Licensed to Ill Posted May 20, 2007 Share Posted May 20, 2007 This kid is f'ing rediculous. I was running through the top players in Nebraska in my head, and he's probably the best. Even better than Niles Paul. This guy just trashed people. Has the speed and athleticism to get past people, and is about as hard of a runner as they come. A lot like a tall Tommie Frazier.
